Mine was the Knight Wolverine Thumbhole that shot percussion caps(It had a conversion for 209's but I sold to buy the Encore)----It was accurate but was a bear to clean. One of the rare guns that I have ever sold. The 209X50 is leaps and bounds ahead of that old Knight!!! Encore28

Accumulating an interesting collection here!!
Amazing how many of them are no longer made. An industry rapidly changing as compared to the centerfires.

Knight LK-93 then I became convinced I had to have the 209 and like a retard sold the knight to a friend and then made and even dumber move and bought a CVA. Nothing but knight and T/C for me now. Well I am trying to work out a deal on a white, but then only knight and t/c

CVA Hunterbolt mag in .45...synthetic/ nickel. It's still my favorite. Can't figure out why it'll only shoot powerbelts, though..... ?? Tried everything else with terrible results...225 gr powerbelt aero tips group under two inches at 100yds....regardless I love that gun and still carry it often in gun season. Never had a misfire, even in pouring down rain.

My first and only - NEF sidekick stainless steel barrel w/black synthetic stock. I only use it for long range blackpowder hunting in Delaware (shot two deer with it down there last week), it's flinters all the way in Pa. I was sorry to recently hear that this rifle has been discontinued.

T/C .54 FireHawk #11 plug. I sold a .32 Cherokee to get the funds to buy it when they first hit the market. Still kicking myself over that one, but with a teenage family to feed at the time it don't grow on trees....
