I am not saying I'm not happy with the setup I just need to figure out how to make the ignition flawless. I think the difficulty is that not all the Knight rifles are the same.
I have no problem saying that for you...
Now we just need to figure out why...
He is one more experimant that would tell me tons.... but go in the garage or outside to do it....
Remove the bolt.... remove the primer adapter... Insert a primer in the BP... keep the gun pointed down... Install the bolt without the primer adapter.... close the bolt and pull the trigger....
That should tell you a whole bunch right away... Nothin will happen except the primer going off and it will be a bit noisy.. and of course when you open the bolt and pull back the primer will stay in the BP until flick it out....
I would love to see a pic of the depression on the primer that would let me know a lot.... again assuming the problems you were having were because the primer was not goin off...
Let me know....
