2020 defiance tenacity

The new 2020 Defiance Tenacity comes with integral recoil lug, but it doesn't look like a one-piece receiver body.

I can see the seam there.
Is it true integral recoil lug with one-piece receiver body?

It says under the manufacturing it’s one piece

I saw it. Does that one-piece include the recoil lug? I am not sure.
Curtis Axiom also has "Receiver machined from one piece of 416 stainless steel", but it has no integral recoil lug.

not uncommon to see a 'seam'

ARC actions come to mind

But they could be lying to us! Open your eyes sheeple!

First two lines of the item description from the Defiance website state, "As Defiance has grown it has gained more equipment and more abilities. The already popular Tenacity has been updated with these advances to now come standard with an integral recoil lug."

The tenacity will come with an integral recoil lug now

This is becoming a theme around here.

I just want to make sure the recoil lug is made with the one-piece receiver body, not by some black magic welding.

Not sure if serious

They're machined from solid bar. One piece including recoil lug.

I hope the op somehow gets an old one with a pinned lug

No, the resulting thread would be a shit show.
