I'd pass on the Vision. The KP1's (if you can find one) are a better design even with the earlier trigger issues.

Yes, the breech plugs with the red FPJ can be made to shoot BH209, but it is more demanding. You should look for a better Knight rifle which has the BP with direct insertion of a 209 primer if you want to go the BH209 route.

The knight vision just went on sale. $100 dollars off. Might be worth taking a chance on.

You can get a bare primer plug for the Vision. The new ones are much better rifles than the older ones.

Yes, the newer bare 209 breech plugs are much better design than the early models were. But you will have to buy that BP as an accessory. The sale price is for FPJ only rifles.

If the Vision fits you tlh178, go for it. It is a bigger and heavier rifle than the earlier models.
Get back out there shooting!

thanks for all of your input, i might pull the trigger on it. most of my shots are under 100 yards. fits my budget for sure.
