    CVA .32 Squirrel with rusty bore / rifling

    For a final mirror finish in any bore take your jag with a piece of flannel and some Simichrome metal polish you know the pink stuff , rod the bore back and forth 30 plus times if the flannel turns black you know it’s Working , then with a clean flannel and presto a new bore . Works for me .

    Rifle Purchase

    I believe the metal is aluminum , and from what I can see is that the firing chamber and breech plug are of steel and where casted together , the box itself only contains the lock mechanism , no powder or residue appears in this area . The rifle overall looks very well made , tight tolerances...

    Rifle Purchase

    Yes I have opened the box and your right, no powder enter’s that area . From what I see , the breech plug is casted with the box and is done with precision so when the barrel is turned on tight it lines up perfectly. I don’t think I have to worry about it. And the barrel has all the proof marks...
