WTB: CVA Accura V2

[lamrith]

Title pretty much sums it up.  I have been holding off but it is time to get a Muzzy.  If anyone has an Accura V2 collecting dust let me know.  Be nice to get one local and put a few $ in a members pocket if possible instead of ordering one in.  Prefer one setup for 209 primers already since the conversion kits are OOS everywhere.

Let me know what you have and where!

Knights are on sale right now. That's the word on the street.

Pretty sold on the accura V2.  Do you know what knight model would be it's equal?

No real reason why I feel this way, but I think the knights are better quality. And I own the accura v2

Personal opinion is that the Knight is of higher quality. I was in the same boat as you looking for an Accura V2. Shot both, handled both, and bought the Knight Bighorn (happened to be on sale for $260) but I would have bought a Knight anyway.

Can't seem to find a bighorn anywhere available, might have been discontinued as I do not see it on their sight either?  Quick research the Disc Extreme might be better option since I want to be able to run BH209.  I will keep knight in mind.

Disc Extreme for $349.99 is a steal!

ya !! And they’re shooters for sure

With the disc extreme, can you take the breech out with your fingers? Is the primer completely enclosed from the elements?

Not sure honestly, just know the quick research I did said the bighorn is not good for BH209 powder, the Disc was good for it.

I just purchased a CVA accura V2 LR at my local sportsmans.  The price was right and I am hoping they allow 1x scopes.  If they don't....well the price was no longer right as it is not drilled or tapped for a a front site....    That will be a few bucks to get done.  Anyhow, the reviews are pretty darn awesome so I figured what the heck.....lets give it a go.  The breach can be taken out with your hands and it is already set up with the 209 primer system.  Load development will start here in a few weeks so I will let you know how it shoots.  I actually thought it felt good in my hands but then again, I have never held a knight.  If it shoots as good as my TC black diamonds....you really can't beat the price. 

Good luck on your search....I don't think you can go wrong with any of the new muzzy's on the market these days.

That is a thing with all the "*R" models (LR, MR, PR) they are not drilled for irons at all.  The rest of the V2 models are drilled/tapped for irons and scope.  I plan to buy a scoped version out of the gate since I plan to hunt AZ with it and they allow it and everyone says replace the stock sights anyway, so why pay for stock ones and replace them!?

Odd that sportsmans would carry them actually given they are not legal to hunt in NW in that configuration.  I know a guy that can probably drill/tap it for you

Not sure what part you are saying is not legal in our state, but the 209 set up is legal now.

Scopes are not currently legal.  The LR, MR, PR models of the Accura are only setup for Scope mount.  There is no provision for any sort of iron sight.  so for now as they come from factory, they are not legal here in the NW without sending out to a gunsmith to have a hole drilled and tapped into the barrel to mount a front sight.

Couple advantages for the accura v2, break action instead of a bolt and no tools required to pull the breech. Just my 2 cents.
