WOW.....Knights in alot of trouble if they put out that kind of quality at a steep price. More than a few have bashed other companies about this or that. Not USA made or T/C going down hill since this. Has anyone posted low quality craftsmenship pics of a CVA or T/C-Traditions..etc. Lehigh Dave can't help out fast enough IMO.

Thats terrible.... NONE of my bolts look that bad. Not even close to looking that bad and for a LE they sure should have been jeweled.

i'm really disappointed that Knight can't better than that. Unless they shape up Knight will have to say bye bye forever.

X2 on that,that bolt looks like something from WW1 mass produced in a hurry! come knight!! Ray

Just so everybody knows - what I think I know.... New bots are being made for the new Knights and they are being made correctly... I actually thought they had some already delivered to them.

I honestly believe in Chetmarks case Knight will do right by him once he makes contact with Knight

I am sure they will SL, the issue i see is why even send a bolt like that out at all? they can't afford any negativity in this highly competitive market.. Ray

Certainly can not argue that one... but then again he has been waiting along time for the rifle.

The other thing a contact with Knight might clear the whole thing up... although there should have been a note or contact by Knight explaining what the plan might be if there was a plan.

Mine came same day as Chets ,same condition also but I cant get pics that clear I just sent off an email to Gordy telling him I was dissatisfied with this bolt that I want a bolt like I sent them and they misplaced chromed and included a picture of the bolt in the rifle. We will see what happens. He had just sent me a email about looking into the delay of getting the bolt I havent received an answer to my response to that one yet it was sent 1 day before getting new one from ups.

Man im glad i bought a used Elite 45cal for the parts. Even after at least 2 previous owners and years of use it looks better than that. Im sure the new forged ones if they are machined by Lehigh will be fantastic but these new cast ones are unacceptable to me.

Im sure Knight will make it right but the point is...they should have been correct the first time. My GMB54 was only $425 shipped and has a beautiful jeweled bolt. IMO there is no reason Knight cant deliver the same quality on a $800 limited edition gun.

At least Sam in the shop is still providing top notch response to emails and calls. He called me back in one day after i emailed him with a question. Im still waiting for a call or email response from another company after a month.

The bolts and muzzleloaders being sold are old Knight left over stuff. The new guns and parts being made are top notch. Gordy is basically in charge of everything. I can see were he wouldn't be able to answer emails as fast as we would like. I'm sure Sam has nothing else to do.o
