Interested in buying a new Knight Wolverine. Always sort of regretted not buying one years ago.
Knight offers two models. One 209 and one #11/Musket cap. Knight seems to offer a conversion kit for #11 to 209 but not the other way around. Are the hammers that different between the two types of ignition? As petty as this sounds, I like the camo on the 209 model over the camo on the #11 yet would probably use the #11 ignition more than the 209.
The barrels are advertised as being stainless steel AND having the Dyna-tek coating. What does the coating offer over regular stainless steel?
My old Knight Disc Extreme has a solid composite stock. Do the newer Knights still have this type of composite stock or have they gone to the standard injection molded hollow stocks?
And finally, a couple, as in 2 folks, online have complained about a Bighorn and an Extreme that had similar barrel issues. Supposedly the two rifles muzzles were choked down in diameter so that when the sabot/conical passed through the tight muzzle, they were swaged down and were very loose in the remainder of the bore. These appear to be 2018 or 2019 rifles. Is this a fluke or is Knight/Green Mountain having barrel issues lately?
Thanks in advance for any info.
