Default Knight elite 45cal good buy ?

I have Omega 50 cal with SS and fluted barrel. I am happy with it for 2 years . I just sold my deer shotgun today because I no longer use it instead of Omega .
I consider to buy another one for back up if Omega goes wrong.. I saw knight elite 45 cal with black stock and SS flute for 370 dlrs new in a box at closing business store . I am aware that a buying is on my own risk since Knight is out of business ?

To much IMO. I bought a thumbhole /SS CVA Accura for that price.

I also think that $370 is to much for a Knight DISC Elite SS Composite 45 or 50.

On the other hand there is a very limited supply of Elites and even more limited in 45 cal. Since Knight has suspended ML construction - there might not be anymore. In fact there probably will not be, if they get Knight back up it will probably produce the new Ultimate Slam.

I believe if you look around you will easily find one on the $300 range and even the $2/250...

The newer Knight DISC series is one of the best built and strongest guns you will find. If a 50 cal would work for you you will find them for less.

What does that mean????? Are you trying to compare that to an Elite?

Not much to compare, Accura blows the elite outta the water

Plus i can shoot BH209 reliably. Not that i ever will! LOL

The point is, there are a ton of rifles out there today that you can get for $370 and the Elite IMO is no where near worth that much.

WiseWood,
In my opinion the 45 might just be the best all around Deer Muzzleloader you can buy. I also think the Disc Elite is one of the best no doubt. It's hard to find one that people aren't happy with. Since you already have a 50cal Omega i would go for it. It will be hard to find a brand new one in the box for that price. SS means a lot to me.

It's obvious you never shot one.
