I think your opinion is what matters. Either way, you are gonna get a decent gun and will be happy shooting it. Bottom line - it's only your decision in the long run. We can only offer our input.
Post some pics when you get it. I've never seen a rosewood laminate.

Another thing I forgot to post in eariler posts is both cva and traditions ane make outside U S A and thus are NOT proofed for standard UB S proofs. Whereas TC,knight,etc ARE american made and proofed in U S.

This isn't a Z5 but it has a T-hole rosewood laminate stock.

All american made products are proof tested at factory. If I remember correctly it's 25,000 psi. I didn't say cva is junk,they are good. I do know for a fact they are imported,or at least was as of a few years ago. Just because you or other people like them doesn't change anything. As to popularity,a lot of it is due to lower price. Cva is good guns but is and always will be a wanna be compared to tc and knight. It's people like you that buy all imported stuff without a thought that make it hard on american companys and their employees. I have been in the gun business approching 30 years and have learned a few things along the way.

I don't know much about muzzleloaders but if i can buy an imported gun that shoots just as good as an american made gun for 1/3 the price, i'm going to buy the import. Codemn me to h e l l but i sure as heck don't have a ton of money to throw around, just my 2 cents.
