cva staghorn? WA legal?

[bankwalker]

is the cva staghorn washington state legal? dj's gun shop in bothell has one and i really like to feel of it. and the price sure wasnt bad either. i forgot to ask them when i was in there today if it was WA state legal.

thats an older model and i believe was one the very first inlines produced by cva. i think it got fairly good marks when it was in production? you may wanna do a little research. they came with 2 breech options, one was 209 and the other was #11. you'll need the cap breech to be legal in wa.

from the one i saw online they look like they are open and exposed to the elements and it did say there was a 209 conversion kit for it so it must use percussion caps. i have never been around them to say for sure.

well then sounds like a quick call to dj's will get you the answer!

thanks guy. ill give them a call and ask.

the staghorn is one of the cva's that can be converted to #11 by just changing breech plug (according to cva's website). so even if that gun is a 209, a call to cva and probably 20$ for a breech plug would fix it. The staghorn is an open breech design. the only problem when i had mine was cheap plastic sights, but i think better sights are available for 30$ or so. for the price they are very accurate.

this one had some decent fiber optic sights on it.
