I worked full time at the profession. I spent a great deal of time working
on CVA rifles and pistols. I concur with every thing that has been written
about so far. I would only add that I spent alot of time replacing CVA main
springs on the early mtn rifles. They were always too weak to snap caps. I
don't want to disparage a company but I never cared much personally for CVA
guns. The TC weapons are very high quality. I firmly believe the highest
quality to be found is a  good custom made muzzle-loading weapon though I
know they are very expensive. M. Branson
