I liked it, actually-- all comes down to how it shoots.

I examined the prototypes at the SHOT show, where I snapped the pic.
It uses red plastic jackets, but not a bad thing at all-- with the new breechplug. Built in extractor, if memory serves. Price point is very good as well; no flashy surfaces to stand out in the woods.
Carbon steel only, at least for now. However, that can save some weight-- and in a sulfur-free world, not as important as when shooting Pyrodex. It came to the shoulder well, and balanced well. A lot can happen between prototype and standard production-- but, I liked what I saw.

Isnt that the truth. 8)
Found a little more info on the Knight Web:
"The new Knight Vision features a hammerless design and combines a smooth break-open action that offers quick and simple breech removal and cleaning. The lever under the trigger guard easily rotates forward to break open the action. This unique design hastens barrel cleaning and insures a secure environment for your primer.
The Vision has its own quick detachable trigger mechanism that disassembles in seconds. The receiver design minimizes blow-back, keeping the trigger mechanism residue free, for a crisp clean ignition.
The Vision utilizes a reliable cross bolt safety. Continuing the tradition of 100% waterproof dependability, it uses the Full Plastic Jackets to encompass the 209 primer and a tip off extractor to speed up your reloading. The Vision is built around a Green Mountain barrel, known for their undisputed reputation in the field and at the range.
Another first for Knight, is the use of overmolding, which uses resilient composite polymers to coat the Vision's stainless steel receiver. The extra tough coating protects your muzzleloader from the effects of weather. You can order the Vision in either Mossy Oak Break-Up or Realtree Hardwoods Green HD."
