I HAVE BEEN ON A TDY BUT I SAW THIS WHEN I GOT BACK, THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE ONE SHIPPED ALREADY.
David,
Thank you for your order of the Breech Plug Kit. Due to problems some customers are experiencing with the interface of the kits to their particular Knight rifles, we have refunded your money by crediting your credit card. Your order has not shipped.
Our goal on redesigning the breech plug and primer holder was to significantly reduce blowback, provide instantaneous ignition with Blackhorn 209 while utilizing an inexpensive vent liner that could be replaced when worn.
Once we began studying the Knight design, it was apparent that factory assembly fits were much looser than would seem reasonable. After many trials we had a functioning plug that exceeded the design goals when used on three different rifles. When redesigning the assembly, we tightened up tolerances on the components. There was risk in this as the reason for the loose fit on the factory parts could be attributable to being necessary to encompass the manufacturing variation on the gun and components produced by Knight. Recognizing this risk, we expanded the testing to six shooters and over ten guns.
Now, in a very brief time, we realize that our sample size of guns, primer lots, and installation wrenches was not sufficient to uncover the factory manufacturing variation that exists. At this time, we are suspending sales of the kits until the variation is better understood.
The changes to the Lehigh design to encompass the variation of the factory guns will in no way effect the improvements made to blowback reduction and instantaneous ignition.
I sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Once the changes have been made and thoroughly tested, they will be able to be purchased off the website.
Thank you for your understanding.
