I visit this post everyday to look at this rifle. Back in 1978 I bought this kit for 69 bucks and made this rifle. It has since vanished when I left home for the USMC.

I've been staring at it too, just can't buy it this month.

Those older CVA's were tack drivers in my experience. My first rifle was very similar except in caplock .45 because I couldn't afford a flintlock. That rifle was a whole lot of fun. I foolishly sold it years ago and still regret my mistake.

Looks very much like the one that I have in my collection. That rifle was a kit which was donated to me. It is a good shooting firearm, IMHO. My heirs will decide what to do with it after I have gone under.

Rifle uses a small flint. I have none of those. It came with one of those cut kinda flints. Not as long as it should be, but sparks well.

Would you be up for trading?

Only if I can flip the trade and come out the other side where I need to be.
