New member from TX, need help identifying this Knight muzzleloader I inherited from my pops

[David Christian]

New member from TX. I don't do much hunting, but I do own a lot of guns. I'm more of a tactical rifle and handgun shooter, but I did inherit a couple cool hunting firearms when my pops passed last year. One of them is a Knights 50 Cal muzzleloader. I posted a thread in the New to Muzzleloading forum with pics so hopefully someone can help me identify what I have.

Hello, the rifle shown in the photo is a early Knight rifle called the "T-Bolt" I don't think many were produced and as far as I know they were only made in blued steel in .50 caliber with a 22" bbl. It certainly does have a unique cocking mechanize system and I like the trigger finger operated safety, it's kinda like the M-1 Garand style safety.
