Do you know if they will be available from Lehigh again in the future ? Glad I got mine already.
Yes they will be. Lehigh is aloud to sale the few they have left. They ran out of vent-liners. The conversions should be back for sale with in the next 30 days.
Ok, I know many have tested this. I have kinda ignored them, as I have been pretty happy with the red jacket. But getting tired of them. And the only thing I can't stand is the all the primer blowback.
Do these conversions keep the primer area cleaner?

So Grouse45... once Lehigh sells the few they have left, then no more available with replaceable vent liners ?
If so, not happy about that....the replaceable vent liner concept is a great selling point.
Brazed, is like soldered but at a higher temp using a brass alloy as the bonding material.
if the vents are brazed, they can be removed with heat, it just takes more than if it was soldered. After they are removed the threads can be cleaned with a tap and you can then thread in another vent.
If they are not threaded in then re-brazing will hold them in.
It would seem that Knight wants to sell replacement breech plugs and not replacement vent liners.

My point exactly. And I want to buy replacement vent liners ($5) and not breech plugs ($40) ! Maybe Knight is concerned about liability issues with replaceable vent liners ?
The only thing I do not understand about the liablility issue is "Why has that not been an issue for Dave?".
I am always kind of skeptical but I have to think the greater profit in selling the whole breech plug/ ventliner combo played a big part in their decision to braze them together.
Muzzleloading is inherently dangerous if you are not careful, I don't see where the vent liners really make it more so.
