BK-92 Qestions
« on: April 09, 2018, 10:29:49 AM »
I have just came up with a new 50 cal. BK-92 - not in the box but from all appearances it has never been fired!

I know the rifle is less expensive version of the MK... but it was still built under the supervision of Tony Knight, so I am thinking the less expensive items on the gun are the sights - trigger guard - stock while the barreled receiver remains manufactured to T Knight specifications.



Questions...

1. The barrel is not a Green Mountain barrel. and from what I can find it must be a Numrich barrel.  It does have a large "N" stamped on the underside of the receiver.

2. Are the receiver and the barrel 1 piece or is the barrel screwed into to the MK style receiver as the early MK's were?

I have it on the work bench now getting it ready to shoot for the first time... I have treated the bore with Bore Tek, Changed out the plastic front sights and added a Williams FP peep sight.

Naturally! Williams does not produce the flat top 'Knight' peep base - FP any longer so I have a Legend on it temporarily or maybe permanently... I will have to drill and tap the reciever if I go this way.  Not a big problem at all. BUT, I may have a line on a real 'Knight' model FP.  I checked all of the online spots that I normally go on.







Atter I get this all done I might even swap out stocks for a thumbhole composite...

The plan is to get this rifle worked up for my hunting partners grandson... it will make an excellent starter for him.

O - thanks Sqezer!

I have done some tracking and now believe they are Numrich barrels - which would help explain the difference in price.

True but they did also use Wiseman barrels during the same time period I think the 92 came out around 1990 does yours have the black knight stamp on the side?

Wiseman barrels were used on a lot of the older MK 85's before Knight turned to Green Mountain.  You know I can not remember I will have to check tomorrow.  If you look at the underside of the barrel you will find a 'N' stamped into the metal.

The last time I looked Numrich still had some old blued barrels in stock.

The rifle does have the 'Black Knight' stamped into the receiver...
