Default New Knight expert on board (me)

Just kidding, but I know a whole lot more than I did a month ago. I just finished reading over posts from the last 3 years, who does that? Spent more than a few hours getting to know a lot of you folks, some of you got it bad. I have bought a gun, 2 lehigh gen 2 BP's that I don't even need, I have another gun coming in the mail and I have already picked out a couple patterns to dip my stocks. What have you people done to me?

I did the same thing before I decided to sign up as a member, Washatonian. I spent about a month reading in the archives!

Plenty of good info from alot of knowledgeable people stored in there. If that info was ever lost it would be a crying shame.

I read somewhere that the FDA is trying to get this site banned as it is harmfull to your mental health and wallet. They also want that same warning put on gun boxes like they have on cigarette packs. "Warning contents may be harmfull to your wallet and marriage"

You may have an addiction, but on the plus side, you'll soon have 2 guns and... well, you'll have 2 guns and how much more of a plus do you need?
I do believe I read somewhere that once you have 2 it's mandatory that you don't wait more than a year before buying a third. The only right thing to do is start looking now.

So that very short meeting we had in Benton City is something you might remember for awhile?????

Peoblem is wait until you do your first shooting, then the first hunt... and then the first harvest and then.....

Steve you have only begun the trip... speaking of trip - this morning it is probably beautiful in Yakima - cauz it is great here in Moscow - headed to the farm in a couple of hours to do some shooting -wish you were here to share

You got the fever even faster than me. It doesn't get any better with time. It will likely get worse when you start shooting MOA groups and hardly needing to clean the breach with the Lehigh conversion installed.

Soon you will likely forget about using a centerfire during that season and use a ML instead. I haven't used a CF in years for deer hunting. My state has far less restrictions though so i can even use smokeless in guns that are rated for it.

I sold all of my centerfires except ones that are special to me or can not be replaced.

I will be looking forward to the Western Kit results with T7. That just might greatly reduce the crud ring but im sure it wont be very clean in the breach. Cleaning inside the bolt assembly will be extremely important too but its easy to take apart.

BTW, use caution...SOMEONE here usually finds good deals on nice Knights and he will PM you about them...he is a bad bad influence if you are trying to save money.

Im done buying more this year and i still need to resist for another 8 months.
