Default RE: Knight rifles ceasing?

ORIGINAL: cantremembermyid

I hope this is untrue. I have found Knight Rifles to be of very good quality, and their employees are a pleasure to deal with. I hope Knight Rifles will bearound for a long time.

They don'thave themarketing and distribution strength that TC or CVA has.This is the area that Knight should invest in. If they are having financial troubles (which I don't know is true or untrue), it probably would be most beneficial for KnightRifles to be acquired byan established, large firearm maker that has a wide distribution network in the US andperhaps internationally.

IMO, marketing and distribution (whilemaintainingits high quality)is more critical to Knight than trying to develop the next technological advancement in black powder firearms.
Knight rifles is owned by a very large corporation. They are owned by Ebsco, which owns approximately 40 companies, including summit treestands, green mountain barrel company etc etc. They started as a publishing company of all things.They own quite a few sporting goods companies.They aquired Knight rifles in 1998
