    BEWARE! I got ripped off

    Alphexfirearms.com was a scam but it was recently taken down. I was scammed for $266 worth of powder. If you come across these sites report them to the FTC, the FBI and the ATF.

    What is everyone's opinion on this CVA Mountain Rifle ?

    My .02 I hate it! If you take that scope off or at the very least correct the angle, I might tolerate its existence.

    Sorry for the late reply I just got home from work. I’m not sure what point you are supposed measure from but I took these picks for you. I measured from the end of the breech to the muzzle.

    There is another sling swivel I took it off to shoot off of a bench rest. I do not think the glossy finish is historically accurate. It looks nice tho.

    No worries I just edited the posting and added the info. I have removed the tang screw to clean the barrel. The only issue I had was removing the front barrel band it was really tight. So I sanded down thr barrel channel to make it fit properly. It’s a nice rifle musket, I am selling it because...
