I still believe you are bias against CVA. You already were condemming the CVA plug even though it is a totally different design in in being toolless as compared to the other 3. The T/C QRBP is a horrible design. That was another reason I choose the CVA over the T/C. This design in a brand NIB rifle could not be removed by hand by myself or the gun shop owner/gunsmith who had to remove it with a set of channel locks. To me that is not QR.

I aint saying it has to be a beauty queen or nothing but if it's just butt ugly I don't want it. Kind of like that TC Strike (formally known as LHR something or other). That thing is just butt ugly to me even though it could quite possibly be the best thing on the block.
That T/C strike is really ugly. But I gotta tell you, I don't think I've ever seen an ignition system better. I would tweek a couple things but that part of it is really really good.

I could make the best break open on the market today with out even really thinking. I'll take the CVA MR, replace the barrel with a green mountain and put the T/C strike ignition system in it with a couple modifications. Now you got looks, reliability, and quality. Good luck finding anything today that will compete with that. Ya, I know, I didn't even shoot it yet.

You just need to quit thinking for awhile, and read and pay attention. The problem with the CVA plug is what CVA claims it is. If CVA said my MR had a tool less plug I would only have one complaint right now. Please pay attention to what I'm saying. The complaint would be, why not offer one plug for all powders. I'm going to say this one more time. If CVA said there plug was tool less, my only complaint so far is why not make one plug for all powders. That would eliminate the BH209 plug coming and not fitting in the gun like mine right now.

the LHR plug freezes up unless you are using blackhorn209. Hows that a great plug?

I just watched a short clip of a how to clean video I did with a friends V2 Accura and it took me less than 10 seconds to remove the QRBP.

Still want to bet that you can remove yours faster from the knight?

Supply me three different links of that happening. I'll show you 500 links to breech plugs freezing cause they weren't lubed properly. The strike would be no different then any other breech plug using 777 for example. It would need lubed.

Please tell all of us, what breech plug you use that doesn't need lubed when shooting 777 or Pyrodex.

You make these kind of posts all the time and never answer. I think everyone would like to hear this.

OK -I see your point. But they do offer a plug designed for BH209. Maybe if more users pushed the issue CVA would change their BP. But for them now it is an additional sale for those using BH209. Not everyone, including myself and a lot of other members on here use it. And I would assume this goes for the majority of ML shooters across the country. But that is a whole other issue.

I dont lube my threads on a QRBP and they certainly don't freeze up with pyrodex or shockeys gold and certainly not with goex. Why would they freeze up when no blow by gets into the threads of my plugs?

Send LHR an email and ask them or in fact, ask those that who shoot an LHR. Im not doing your homework for you

Why don't you go back and read what I said. You better read it twice to before commenting.

I'll tell you what I will do. Since you like challenging people all the time. I'll give you 2 to 1 odds, I'll take the breech plug out of that cheap piece of crap T/C impact faster then you. Then I'll give you a chance to win your money back and I'll give you another 2 to 1 odds it out shoots your wolf. All and yes, it's the T/C impact I never shot.

Thanks, the problem now is the BH209 plug. It arrives and it doesn't fit in the gun. I can't find any directions on how to install this but I'm still looking. I know you guys and others on here know what to do. But I look at it another way. I don't have a computer and don't play on the Internet. My point is, you shouldn't need to go to a forum or call the manufacture to install a breech plug.
