Knight elite 45cal good buy ?
I have Omega 50 cal with SS and fluted barrel. I am happy with it for 2 years . I just sold my deer shotgun today because I no longer use it instead of Omega .
I consider to buy another one for back up if Omega goes wrong.. I saw knight elite 45 cal with black stock and SS flute for 370 dlrs new in a box at closing business store . I am aware that a buying is on my own risk since Knight is out of business ?

I also think that $370 is to much for a Knight DISC Elite SS Composite 45 or 50.
On the other hand there is a very limited supply of Elites and even more limited in 45 cal. Since Knight has suspended ML construction - there might not be anymore. In fact there probably will not be, if they get Knight back up it will probably produce the new Ultimate Slam.
I believe if you look around you will easily find one on the $300 range and even the $2/250...

The newer Knight DISC series is one of the best built and strongest guns you will find. If a 50 cal would work for you you will find them for less.

Not much to compare, Accura blows the elite outta the water 
Plus i can shoot BH209 reliably. Not that i ever will! LOL
The point is, there are a ton of rifles out there today that you can get for $370 and the Elite IMO is no where near worth that much.

WiseWood,
In my opinion the 45 might just be the best all around Deer Muzzleloader you can buy. I also think the Disc Elite is one of the best no doubt. It's hard to find one that people aren't happy with. Since you already have a 50cal Omega i would go for it. It will be hard to find a brand new one in the box for that price. SS means a lot to me.

It's obvious you never shot one.
