Default Where is it at Knight?

So....almost a year ago (2014 SHOT show) Knight showed a rifle that was supposed to be released called the KPX. I believe that there was going to be a fixed muzzleloader one and one that accepted different caliber barrels. It appears that idea is gone since of course it never became available and there is no talk about it. A fast twist .45 (like what was rumored) or a 45-70 converted would of peaked my interest quite a bit.

I didn't start a thread about the knight mountaineer or a .52 caliber. Its about the break action kpx that was supposed to be released with an available fast twist .45 or 45-70 barrel which I am interested in.

I actually tested an early stage prototype of that muzzleloader awhile ago. I believe they are working on getting the equipment to build internally at Knight rifles.

I understand that LHR, the company that is building the new Redemption muzzleloader has or is planning to offer a metallic cartridge option for their new gun. Makes sense as I understand the founders of this new company all worked for TC before it was sold. I've been shooting their MZ for 3 months and it's a well made(all American made) gun that shoots well and has a bunch of neat features, and is the easiest MZ to clean up that I've ever shot. See reviews elsewhere on this site.
