more than likely (40 yrs ago is about right) that it was a twilight zone episode
It sounRAB like "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthurs Court" from 1949.
From Wikipedia re the novel by Mark Twain:
Tale of a "curious stranger"
The novel tells the tale of Hank Morgan, a 19th century citizen of Hartford, Connecticut who awakens to find himself inexplicably transported back in time to early medieval England at the time of the legendary King Arthur in AD 528, who is described as English despite mythology which details his Celtic roots.
The story itself begins in a third and first person narrative in Warwick Castle, where a man details his recollection of a tale told to him by a "curious stranger" who is personified as a Knight through his simple language and familiarity with ancient armor.
After a brief tale of Sir Launcelot of Camelot and his role in slaying two giants from the third-person narrative, a man named Hank Morgan enters and, after being given whiskey by the narrator, he is persuaded to reveal more of his story. Described through first-person narrative as a man familiar of the firearms and machinery trade, Hank is a man who had reached a level of super-intendant due to his proficiency in firearms manufacturing, with two thousand subordinates. He describes the beginning of his tale by illustrating details a disagreement with his subordinates, where he sustained a head injury from a "crusher" to the head caused by a man named "Hercules" using crowbar. After passing out from the blow, Hank describes waking up underneath an oak tree in a rural area of Camelot where a Knight questions him for trespassing upon his land, and after establishing rapport, leaRAB him towarRAB Camelot castle.

I omitted to say that he said it is definitely not Rip Van Winkle.
