Considering buying a Knight Revolution muzzleloader with the DISC primer. However, I always worry that years down the line, someone will invent a better priming system and I won't be able to get those little plastic bits that hold the 209 primer.
If that happens, is the Knight DISC rifle a wall hanger?

The dics are cheep and re-useable.I pop the spent primer out and clean it up,good as new.
Sorry,I drank the Sako-Aid.My opinion may be biased. bh444

My buddy's selling a stainless/laminate Knight Revolution. If you're looking for one, shoot me a PM with your contact info and I'll hook you up.
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

I have an older model with the oval DISC and don't think they wear so well.
You could always take some of the plastic ones to a machinist and get brass replacements made.

I bought a Revolution recently , and yup , there is no way the gun would function without the plastic thingys .
If you are worried about it , buy up several hundred disks and it they should last you a lifetime ............shucks , it's half a days work just to get off ten shots for sighting in with these muzzleloading contraptions (grin)

I was all set to buy the Revolution, but the clerk at the store said he thought they might have a T/C Omega with the regular, non-thumbhole stock (I'm left-handed) somewhere in the back room. They did, and I ended up buying it instead.
I REALLY liked the looks and handling of the Revolution, but decied I liked having a visible hammer and non-DISC 209 priming of the Omega.
