Very smart marketing idea. My ol mk85 fits me like a glove,its taken many more deer then my 30-06. I'm waiting for Knights new gun for sure.I wish I had bought some of the disc guns that were being sold new for 179 bucks on gunbroker.

yeah unfortunately that's the way it seems to work. Jim Shockey is a prime example. Just ask Knight abou that. It's often marketing and image not substance

Just what is it with you and american products? your anti amercian babble is getting old..maybe you should move to spain and go to work for CVA. and live on the wages they pay to thier people!

they do have nice marco polo sheep there. Nah i'd miss my rockies to much.

I dont think jim shockey did an entire lot for knight. I never saw him on the hunting channels with a knight, only tc. He seems like a good guy though, i enjoy watching his hunts. His father and the older friend are funny as heck. I remember one episode where the old man dropped the F bomb and they missed it and didnt bleep it out :D

T/C didn't start sponsoring Shockey til 2005. He had already completed his N/A Super Slam and Ultimate Slam by then, mostly with a Knight, although I think he carried a Traditions for a little while
