Nova Vista and Macavity Arms - Two Innovative Airgun Companies
Today we're looking at Nova Vista and Macavity Arms - two innovative airgun companies that were exhibiting at IWA OutdoorClassics 2024.

That’s a rifle that just needs a complete redesign. The concept is great, but the execution is awful. I’d really like to see Crosman make an ACP.I love how they're still trying to sell the Aspen but with a bigger air cylinder. Offer replacement parts and people would be more interested IMHO.
That pump up pcp I look at it and I think crosmam multi pump clack , clack, clack, ouch blood blister ..lolThat’s a rifle that just needs a complete redesign. The concept is great, but the execution is awful. I’d really like to see Crosman make an ACP.
Mine hasn’t had any issues with the pump or seals, it just shoots to a different point of impact every time I pump it or take it out of the case. I’m sure there’s got to be something loose somewhere and I’ve made a halfhearted attempt to figure out just what it is, but honestly, I just don’t enjoy shooting it very much so I haven’t tried too hard. It just feels too much like I’m shouldering a plastic 2x8.I think I've found a replacement square Oring for the pump. The check valves are the biggest pos design that's a real pita to reassemble. I just got done doing it but haven't finished putting the rest together to see if it will hold air.PA isn't doing the owners of the Aspen any favors telling them to take a few shots before pumping it back up to the sweet spot. BB pelter already said the best way to use it is take a single shot then pump it up to the sweet spot which is usually 5-6 pumps. I took his advice and the original square pump Oring was still it perfect shape. Main reason I took it apart is the pump check valve was leaking and would cause the pump arm to be very hard to move closed. After completing the that pump it would pump just normal. The materials used to make the parts is why it fails
