PatriotDefense Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 So word on the Italian streets is we can expect the new IFG Defiant Master series of guns to hit stateside sometime late summer of 2019. We can also expect small/large frame versions in all the cool kid calibers. The "production" model which is the Defiant Stock Master will come with the hard chrome finish, while the Defiant Limited Master is supposedly coming with a two tone black slide, and dark grey frame. Attached pics are of the two models they had at SHOT Show this past January.... We built this same gun spec about 3 yrs ago and i can tell you it shoots flat! To catch those up to speed below are the specs- Basically a Stock III Bull Barrel Factory lightning cuts Production model DA/SA Hard Chrome Limited model SA only with magwell two tone Will be approved for USPSA and IPSC competitions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tirppa Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 If that Stock master is better balanced than Shadow 2 I'm gonna have hard time picking between Stock 2 and that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himurax13 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I wonder if they would sell the slide separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with the slide cuts, it will balance awesome! break it to your wallet gently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazhi Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 "Stock Master" in large frame? Will be nice to reuse the 30 or so Stock 2 magazines I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tirppa Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Wondering if these are US only models. Or 2020 models since they aren't in Tanfo 2019 catalogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayTac556 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 We do have a waitlist started.... How does one get on said list?! I would love to get on it. I also heard that the state side US models were going to be hard chrome. Any truth to this? If so this is going to be one sexy piece. Definitely stoked about it.

MemphisMechanic Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Why on earth didn’t they build it with a cone-fit barrel? That one feature is the primary reason everyone chose the S2 over the S3 when it came time to choose a Tanfo. It’s why the old model outsells the new one currently, so you’d think that would be the first thing to tweak when building this Stock 4 into the Uber-Tanfo.

Localizer Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 $1550 price tag will ensure these don’t sell well. No reason for this gun to not be priced in the $900-$1,100 range. oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
