billygoat Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I did a search and I haven't seen any comments about this "Encore" replica... Does anyone own one? What do you think of it? I have a CVA firebolt musketmag, but would consider upgrading to the Optima Elite if I knew a little more about it... any help would be welcomed.

slugshooter Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Re: CVA optima I don't believe the Optima is really considered an "Encore" replica, I believe it is strictly a break-open muzzleloader in the style of an Encore but does not allow shooter to switch barrels into centerfire or shotgun like the Encore.

dogdoc Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Re: CVA optima I wonder why this got moved b/c actually this is a rifle just like the encore?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Re: CVA optima I moved it as I thought it was about their ML guns. Ok my bad. Its back. No I have not shot one. I don't care for CVA guns quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
