Title: Knight Back In Business
Post by: saread on November 24, 2010, 09:11:02 PM: Knight is selling muzzys again. Here's the first offering:

Nice looking rifle. Not WA legal, and definitely on the spendy side, but looks like a very good piece.

If its the same gun as before they went under...the breach plug can be swapped for one that will take a nipple for a Musket cap.

Think it might be worth a call...

I DO hope they bring back the Bighorn!

These are left over guns . The new offering will not be unveiled until after the new year. They are introducing a new ram rod system however that is nice. We should be able to buy them very soon.

Post by: WonkyWapiti on November 26, 2010, 07:00:42 PM: This is good news. I'll be sending them an email requesting that they continue producing the BigHorn. I'd suggest others do the same if they'd like to see this rifle continue to be produced.

Post by: Whitelightning on November 26, 2010, 08:16:25 PM: Knight will probably come out with some new models and we might not see any old production stuff right away. I think we will over time. The new rifles are reportedly going to be using Green Mountain barrels also along with Timney triggers.
