    pillow ticking question

    I went to wally mart and asked for pillow ticking. I got in return the standard confused look of the normal wallymart employee. I wandered around and looked for something that resembled ticking but didn't see anything. Of the fabrics I looked at I didn't see a thickness listed and being I...

    Tell me about building a stock

    Are there any tutorials on building one? I've tried searching and haven't found much. Can a stock be built from scratch or is it best to have a duplicator of some kind? Anyone here ever build a duplicator? I know this question is kinda vague. I'm a woodshop teacher and tinkerer, so I work...

    Remanufactured barrel?

    I bought a used cva hawken the other day and after getting it home I notice in smallish print, upside down and right at the stock line it says remanufactured. What would that have been? I have the right to return the gun in seven days so advice would be appreciated. At 150.00 it wasn't a...

    cva hawken value

    caps are tearing apart, problem?

    Since I haven't shot in 30 years I don't remember this happening. I bought CCI #11 magnum primers because I remember having ignition problems in my old CVA rifle and I'm assuming standard #11's. This cabala's hawken shoots just fine, but the caps are splitting open, sometimes in more than 1...

    Build or buy????

    Hello gents, my first post. I had a cva kenyucky I built from a kit when I was a boy, 30 years ago. I've always wanted another especially as a get older. Hunting with a center fire isn't much fun. The question becomes do I build or buy. Being fairly mechanical and and wood shop teacher...
