CVA Mountain Rifle Pic Thread

[user 48679]

That's a 1990 Premier Grade Mountain Rifle.

Unlike almost all other MRs, this edition has a chrome lined bore.

Note too the Walnut stock, full length cheek, the pewter furniture and Frontier Rifle trigger guard also in pewter.

Thank you so much, for clarifying the MR I bought recently !

They only have to have one process to make stocks for a flint lock or a percussion lock gun.

Here's my .50 cal. kit gun. Bought the kit from a bid site for $200. Best shooter I have. Finished the barrel in 44-40 cold blue and steelwooled it back to get a worn look. Beech is difficult to stain evenly but I did what I could. Trigger set had to be worked and set in the stock to fit since it was too deep to start. It is very sweet now.

Here's mine I acquired a couple of years ago. It has the maple stock, 2 screw patch box but hexagonal thimbles, aluminum ramrod tip and unmarked barrel. At the time I acquired it I was told it is believed this was likely a transition gun from around 1979. The rear trigger was removed at some point but I have a new trigger assembly for it.
