CVA has identified a concern related to the welds between the barrel and barrel lug on a limited number of Crossfire muzzleloaders featuring Burnt Bronze Cerakote/Nitride barrels. There is a possibility that dropping the firearm or repeated firings could compromise the weld, leading to a separation of the barrel from the lug during firing. Therefore, CVA is initiating a Voluntary Recall for all such firearms currently in the distribution channel. CVA Distributors and Dealers with these firearms in inventory should immediately contact their CVA Sales Coordinator to obtain a Return Authorization and receive information regarding replacement or credit. Additionally, Distributors and Retailers should contact all customers who have purchased these firearms and notify them of the recall. Please instruct these customers to call CVA Customer Service immediately at 1-770-449-4687 to obtain a Return Authorization and receive information regarding replacement options or a refund. This recall applies to CVA Crossfire rifles with nitride-treated barrels only (CR3804NM and CR3804NSC) and does not apply to standard stainless steel barreled firearms.
