He wanted $20 for the carbine and $10 for the Enfield. I was fascinated with the M1—the way the action worked and the look of it. That night while…
Since 1971, CVA has been known for its muzzleloading firearms, transitioning from traditional-style guns to the most modern of frontloaders. In 2010, the company introduced its first centerfire rifle, with the single-shot Scout, followed in 2019 by the bolt-action Cascade.

The Cascade Rimfire takes the styling and controls of the Cascade centerfire rifle and places it into a scaled-down rimfire package. The rimfire Cascade takes many of its styling cues from its centerfire big brother, including the position of the safety and bolt release,…
