We at CVA would like to thank you for purchasing our product. You have our
assurance that the CVA gun you have chosen has been manufactured to
exacting tolerances and has passed rigid quality control standards before
being shipped on to you, our customer. You must remember, however, that
no amount of engineering, precision manufacturing, or safety inspections
can replace the common sense and safe gun handling habits for which you
are solely responsible. Some portions of this manual are printed in RED in
order to emphasize their special importance in regards to safety. However,
this should in no way lessen the importance of the rest of this manual. Even
the smallest and most innocent safety violations can result in tragic loss. If,
after reading the instructions, cautions and dangers detailed in this manual,
you are not willing to accept the responsibilities involved in the safe handling
and shooting of a fi rearm, return the fi rearm in its entirety to the place of
purchase. If you have any questions about the safe use of your CVA fi rearm,
write, call or e-mail our Customer Service Department.
This manual will teach you the basics of how to operate your gun in a safe and
effi cient manner. Be sure to read the instructions completely before loading
your gun. If you sell, trade or give this gun to any other person, please make
sure a copy of this manual accompanies the gun. Replacement manuals
are available from CVA Customer Service. You can contact CVA Customer
Service by mail, telephone or e-mail.

CVA encourages you to take a certifi ed hunter’s safety course before using
any fi rearm. Consult your local fi rearm retailer or Game & Fish authorities for
information on the courses available. Even if you do not intend to hunt game
animals, the information gained from taking a hunter’s safety course can help
in preventing dangerous or fatal accidents from occurring.
THE SAFETY MECHANISM ON YOUR FIREARM IS A MECHANICAL
DEVICE. LIKE ALL MECHANICAL DEVICES THE POSSIBILITY OF FAILURE
IS ALWAYS PRESENT. YOU, AND ONLY YOU, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
SAFELY CONTROLLING THE MUZZLE OF YOUR GUN. NO MECHANICAL
SAFETY SHOULD EVER BE RELIED UPON TO TAKE THE PLACE OF
SAFE GUN HANDLING!
