Well today was D day and no shipment!!!
So Monday I will call and see what the hold up is .
I had to make a quick transaction on a rifle to go hunting with.First was going to barrow a rifle then was going to buy a used one then I remembered a guy that has several Knight rifles rat holed.
So I bought a
Disc Extreme Master Hunter 45 cal Laminated Stock new in the box for a great price!!
And he has the bare 209 conversion plugs as well..
So will be hunting with open sites dont have the time or cash to get the bases and scope here right now. So anyone no a good load and bullet combo?
Was thinking 200 xtp and 100gr 777 3f

Thanks for the info
I might be mad with Knight as we speak,
I really wanted to use the 52 but things happen and I picked up and handled several other brands this week and none of them had the feel as do the Knight's imop!
I hope they work this out at Knight and I am sure they will in time I said I would wait a year before I would get a Knight or buy anything from them to allow them time to overcome there new operations.But I thought maybe they would be ahead of the game so for know live and learn.


As soon as I regain some capital I will try some of that BH stuff

forgot all about the gold dot, it's another good one to try down the road and inexpensive to boot.

Well called Knight this morning lady on the phone looked up my order number and said wasnt sure about the delay, said she would email the shipping department and get back with me.Had not heard back from them at late afternoon so I called back and she said order had been completed successfully..I didnt get a tracking number form them so not sure if it shipped or not yet.Ordered on the 7th and we shall see when it shows...

I was on the fence about buying another Knight. This has knocked me over to the "don't buy" side.

I can't stand bad CS.

Hope it works out for you.

Well like another forum member and I were talking about tonight,
right now with the economy being so bad it will be tough.Just hope that the parent company has deep pockets...And they will need to get there CS better and as well as getting tech support going or I am afraid they will be gone again.
To many other companies out there that have all the above!!!
