RE: Thompson Omega vs Encore Dilemma
what did you pay for your omega? I paid $375 for my stainless laminated one when they first came out (they list for $529 in cableas)and just paid $750 for my prohunter. Is the prohunter twice the gun due to it being twice as expensive? I don't think so. I only bought the Prohunter because I loved the look of it and I love guns. Plus, it's nice to be able to swap barrels. If your budget doesn't permit you pissing away $$$ on guns, stick with the omega as it's a great bang for the buck. As far as muzzle loading goes i think the omega is jusr as good as the prohunter/encore. One thing I noticed was the trigger on my omega was MUCH NICER that my prohunter. I've already sent the prohunter out for a trigger job. good luck!
