How much does a Knight Revolution weigh?
By Randy Wakeman Illustration courtesy of Knight Rifles. The tested gun was one of the very few truly "new" front loading rifles for 2004, the Knight Revolution in stainless steel / Realtree Hardwoods configuration. As supplied, it is 8-1/2 pounds on the nose, hanging from my Lyman electric trigger gauge.

Does the Knight Revolution's trigger creep?
It was returned to Knight, and Knight's superior customer service very quickly took care of the problem, the trigger arriving back in my hands in just a few days. The Revolution's trigger is adjustable for break only, not creep. As received, it breaks cleanly at a very acceptable four pounds.
What happened to the trigger that came with my Revolution?

Re: Revolution
They had a recall on the trigger group. I sent mine back to Knight last year for inspection. Maybe you should too if you are having issues.
Re: Revolution
The only problem I've had is the latch getting stuck and I have to use a screwdriver to open the latch
Re: Revolution
The confused young Lady at the end of the line , and another confused young man, from that phone number to Bass Pro said that there were no numbers that match that part, and that I should contact Knight Rifles.
What is the primer residue on a Knight bolt gun?
In Knight bolt guns, any excess primer residue that is spewed onto the bolt action (and a small amount into the bottom of your scope) which is very easy to hand disassemble, soak, and clean. Such is not the case with the Revolution. The same red plastic jacket spewage remains.
Where does the Revolution leak?
It leaks out a bit beneath the receiver, and also out the rear flap that closes in concert with the action when you lock and prime the action.
Is the Knight bolt action easy to take apart?
Well, it is easy to take apart, but easy to clean it certainly is not. Easy to get dirty more accurately describes the situation. Knight bolt-action rifles are a dream by comparison. The Revolution retains the Knight "Red Full Plastic Jacket.".
Is the Revolution a good trigger?
The Revolution's trigger is adjustable for break only, not creep. As received, it breaks cleanly at a very acceptable four pounds. It is certainly a good hunting trigger, far better than the horrid Traditions and CVA triggers I've tested recently.
Do red jackets work on rifles?
In their plunger guns and bolt actions, the red jackets have proved to be a very good idea for field use. It clearly weatherproofs their rifles, eliminates the need for a capper in their bolt actions, and no field capper is required for the Revolution, either.

Yea guys, The Revolution and Revolution 2 are being recalled due to a case of slam fire issues. Meaning the gun could accidentally discharge when the action is closed up.
