    Cva Hawken pistol

    A very nice pistol, with good balance. There are others that are more expensive or with fancy engraving or other fancy findings but the best pistol will be the one you learn to shoot with. This is one of three similar in .45,.50, and a special .54. My CVA pistol collection includes many of CVA's...

    CVA Pistol

    Dearmanct, you made quite the grab! I have several CVA mountain pistols, flint & cap, that go along with matching rifles .45 &.50cal. You may find a charge of 30-35gr is very accurate. My .50's seem to like a bit lighter charge than you might think is needed....range is also something to...

    Hoppe's Number 9

    Ed's Red - for final cleaning and storage....works great on all of the items in the collection .. Especially on the revolvers. It works fine for the barrels and locks on the rifles for keeping the rust away. Beats the heck out of Hoppes 9 IMHO and is made with stuff I have around the house which...

    Black Friday 1858 Remington

    Geeze I guess that Cabela's hooked a bunch of you guys! I missed out this time but that's because I've got my eye on something else.......and I think I used up my gun bucks on another little revolver......Though I'd really like to add the .36 to the .44's and the .31 in the Remington...
