That is an older model, call Knight, here is there web page:

fill out the form there and contact them by email, they respond pretty quickly.

ask them how much it will cost for the breech plug remover and a manual (they may give it to you). My gut feeling is $150 is too high for this, since I believe the gun was a $200 gun new.

I shoot a Knight LK-II and it is a great rifle. Those guns were made back in the early 90's. Mine was made in 1993. If it has the 26" barrel it is one of the newer ones. The older models have a 22" barrel. I bought mine new from Natchez for $129.00 about three years ago, maybe four yearsago.

These are great shooters, their triggers I was under the impression are Timney but I could be wrong. The trigger is exceptional as well. They are a great all around little rifle. I saw then being sold NIB on auction sites with a blue barrel and the strange stock (I do not know what they call it being crushed like that)for $75.00. I should have bought a couple of them then. Don't let the #11 ignition scare you, they go off like clock work. Because of the Stainless barrel it might be a good deal.

RE: knight muzzleloader

i have one also, and love it. it may have a timney i dont know but it is a little different than mine. i bought mine the same way as this one on clearance. the only difference between this one and mine is my trigger is adjustable. and the trigger on the one they have down there has no adjustment`s. cayugad does your`s have a adjustable trigger.
