    That doesn't make the gun cheap. It just makes them more profit.

    I prefer the CVA version. It always comes out by hand, and it needs no messy lube.

    Yes they do!



    And the Ultra Light is for both of us - shoot it left or right

    And you know what I believe you are wrong there also... Dave designed the first TC speed breech and the AR-15 bolt and seal were the basis of his gas ring idea... Now all of that may have come from a howitzer breech - but the partial twist breech is an old idea...

    yep! that is a left handed gun, and remember Doc White put most of his plunger pulls on the left side of the gun also and they were considered both right and left hand guns
