Well after missing a CVA a while back, I met a guy today to buy what he said was a Knights Mk-85. Turns out it is. MML T-5 in 50 cal. Reading tells me this was Knights try at cheaper in lines back in the 90's. This is made in Italy. Price I paid still makes me feel ok. I got the tool and a partial tin of #11 caps with it. Nobody laugh, I paid $75 and it has a Simmons 3x9 scope with peek under rings. I did not notice until home that the ramrod looks short, maybe was broken??? Opinions? Now I have to figure out what the h3ll I am doing. Never used BP before, but since I am trying to get back hunting, it will help me extend my season. I already know I am useless with a bow. Anyone had one of these? A forum said Knights told them they are the same as the Wolverine. I downloaded the generic manual from Knights, but woulkd like some more info. Any idea how long the ramrod should be? I think the info said it was a 22 inch barrel. Looks like Numrich sells an aluminum one that is 22 inches and threaded at each end for $5. I am still looking around, but any input would be nice. Oh and the bad side, I barely missed a sweet Ruger Security Six .357 he had up for sale with a bunch of accessories.... Can't win them all.
