Default Find model with serial #

Hi
I only have the serial # of my Knight rifle, how is it possible to know which model it is?

Thanks, Mart

Knight can definitely tell you....

Can you post a picture of it - then some of us can tell you?

Or even a description:

Does it have a bolt handle?

Does it have an exposed hammer?

Do you pull back a ****ing lever/knob to shoot it?

Which ignition system does it use?

Just some thoughts....

finding the model of a Knight is really simple, just look at the right side of the barrel about 2 or 3 inches up from the serial number and the model info is stamped on the barrel. If your barrel is camo it may be difficult to see...

it will also give you the caliber and a bunch of other numbers, which i think are patent #'s and will say "black powder only"

if you call knight, they will ask you to look at your barrel anyway

The model is usually stamped on the right side of the barrel just up from the bolt. If its an older model it might say, LK or MK etc.

That looks like a Knight LK-II. I have one of them. Look on the right side of the barrel just under the rear sight. It's hard to read but it says LK-II on mine.

80 grains of powder and a 250 grain XTP shoots well out of them.
