If you're running a Northwest musket-cap CVA and you're ready for the more consistent ignition that 209 primers offer, the AC1696 is the kit that gets you there. It swaps out the parts on your quick-removable breech plug setup so your rifle takes standard 209 shotshell primers instead of musket caps. That means hotter, more reliable ignition in cold and damp conditions where musket caps can leave you guessing.
This one is built specifically for the Northwest versions of the CVA Optima, Wolf, and Accura series rifles, and it also plays nicely with other CVA models made in 2010 or newer. CVA has kept most of its parts cross-compatible across that era of rifles, so if you're on a post-2010 gun with a quick-removable breech plug you're generally in good shape. If you're unsure about an oddball model, a quick call to CVA settles it fast.
The kit is complete, so you're not hunting down extra pieces to finish the job. Inside you get the 209 QRBP breech plug, the 209 firing pin, a firing pin spring, the firing pin retainer bushing with its o-ring, plus the QRBP tool and firing pin bushing tool needed to do the work. That combination handles both the breech plug swap and the firing pin change in one shot.
One of the nicer things about this conversion is that it isn't permanent. Keep your original musket-cap parts, and you can put them back in whenever the situation calls for it, then reinstall the 209 setup later. Folks who've made the switch tend to point out how much steadier ignition feels once they're running 209s, and installation is a straightforward job with the included tools if you follow the directions.
It's designed specifically for the Northwest versions of the CVA Optima, Wolf, and Accura series. It also works well on other CVA muzzleloaders made in 2010 or newer that use a quick-removable breech plug. If you have an unusual model, contacting CVA directly will confirm fit before you order.
Yes. The conversion is not permanent, so as long as you hang onto your original musket-cap breech plug and firing pin parts, you can reinstall them anytime. That flexibility is handy if your needs change from season to season.
The kit comes with the QRBP tool and the firing pin bushing tool needed to complete the job, so most of what you need is in the box. Following the included instructions step by step makes for a clean, straightforward install. Take your time on the firing pin and o-ring and you'll be set.
209 primers deliver a hotter, more consistent spark than musket caps, which tends to mean more reliable ignition in cold or damp weather. Many folks make the switch to cut down on misfires and get more dependable performance in the field.
