Lets see if i understand this. Knight makes very little in house but chose some of the best companies to makes the parts for them. Then Knight assembles those high quality American made parts in house in the USA with American labor.

The end result is nearly a 100% Made in USA muzzleloader from parts that are extremely good quality even though they could have outsourced to companies with much less quality control and saved some money.

These new guns cost roughly $100 more MSRP than many imports for an $559 Extreme (as an example) with a laminate stock. Most imports don't even offer a laminate stock or FULLY adjustable triggers which will easily make up the difference in cost. I will gladly pay an extra $100-150 to keep skilled American laborers working.
