Product Description

The Williams "Ace in the Hole" Scope Rail offers unquestionable advantages and improvements over open sights. Made specifically for use with CVA guns, this receiver mounted, metal aperture sight is optically superior to open sights in accuracy. The closer the aperture is to your eye, the faster you acquire your shot, obscuring much less of your target and the surrounding area. Plus this sight allows accurate, repeatable, wind and elevation adjustments. Williams "Ace in the Hole" Rail Sight provides the perfect solution for mounting optics and retaining iron sights. Machined to standard 1913 picatinny rail specifications, the rail features cross slots for versatile mounting options, while at the same time, if something happens to your primary sighting option, you have an “Ace in the Hole” backup aperture sight. Ideal for scopes, red dot sights and optics, this 3/8 x .093 aperture peep sight accepts the Williams ghost ring aperture as well. Sight your gun in faster no matter what the configuration. Remove a huge amount of aiming error, and improve the focus of your sight by increasing your sight radius, plus eliminate rear light reflection. With CVA Williams "Ace in the Hole" picatinny rail sight, a longer sight radius with faster target acquisition equals undoubtedly more accurate shooting. Model 70978 fits the CVA Buckhorn, Wolf, Optima, Accura and Apex Models.

    the screws provided have slots to small for a screwdriver. Also, no torque specs are provided. I had to “file down” a screwdriver blade to fit into the tiny slots.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Solid sight for squeezing more accuracy out of your open sight muzzle loader
    Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    I am a Colorado Muzzleloader hunter. This means no scopes, but if you want to get a little more accuracy and have a place to mount a scope if you head to Utah or Montana this is a great option. I was hammering a 4 inch plate at 100 yards after attaching it to my barrel. Williams Gun Sights makes great products. I am a big fan.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Not compatible with CVA
    Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    The item being sold is not compatible with CVA. The item received will only work with T/C. The sight ramp is clearly marked T/C. The screws are too small to fit in a CVA. The rail is missing holes required to securely fasten to the barrel. If installed the rail will not be in contact with the barrel. This is clearly a rouse as the CVA compatible item is sold out everywhere and somehow this guy has 9 being sold

    the original sights were the flimsiest I've ever seen to the point where you couldn't reliably adjust them. This is a definite must-have.

    I had to return this rail. I really wanted it to work and love the idea. It comes with slotted screws to mount it. The slots are very shallow. There is no way to torque them down.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't fit the Optima V2.
    Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    Looks nice, but doesn't fit the CVA Optima V2. Mentions 'Optima', but is unclear about V2. The screws are too narrow for the tapped holes in the Optima V2 barrel. Also, the way it's designed, even if the screws -did- fit, only the rear 1/3 or so of the rail would be secured to the barrel. The rest is hanging unsecure.

    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2018

    It does not fit the Thompson Center barrels, none of them. On the back of the product, it was to be fitted on a CVA product and the Thompson Center label was marked out. The product was also opened and taped down when it arrived. I do not care about presentation or anything, but when it didn't fit on the barrels it just added to the mess.
