I think I have heard it all when their excuse is that they have to learn the ML business, after they have been producing rifles for some years now?! Now I think I have heard it all, Grouse!!!
Lol.....you guys are really funny sometimes. The only people that got hired from the old Knight Rifles is Gordy Edwards and Sam. Nobody else from the old company is there. As a matter of fact, Sam isn't even involved in the new Knight rifles.

7 to 10 days is unfortunate. But given they are starting back up and the demand they had/have on thier products right now, I can undestand the delay as well. I'm not making excuses because I have no need to defend them. But I don't see any cause for major concern at this point. But heck, that's just my $0.02.
You make a valid point and when i did the hiring, i was the same way. But, you have to know your product to teach the new help. it seems they do not!

7-10 days to get out items that are supposed to be in stock, is just plain redicolous. If they plan to make it, it seems they need big changes and the sooner the better.

between this and they didn't know anything about MLers, is supposed to make people feel better about what they are buying? Now that is funny sh!t, right there.

Every time I order something. The last thing I say to them is..........when will this ship? I'll cancel the order if I don't like the answer. Unless i'm in no rush at all to get it. (hardly ever)

You are just a reject grouse, where is your usefull info, unless you are posting an advertisement for Knight. you just post stupid BS! So as in the past, you should really think about what you do, before you try to come down on someone else for the same BS.

However letting us know that knight, knows nothing about MLers, has been very usefull.... TYVM!!!!

I can agree with you where the rifles are concerned. as far as the other products, which are shown online as being in stock, there is no excuse to wait 7-10 days before it's even shipped.i was a warehouse manager and training people to pack items in a shipping box isn't difficult and considering our economy, there shouldn't be a shortage of people wanting to work.
