Defiance Tenacity??

[STLSteve86]

Sorry about the delay in response, life... I have had a little hands on time with the tenacity and origin, as well as the couple nucleus and kelbly black bear i got in. I ordered a second Origin, which should be shipping this week, as I think I am preferring it. The Tenacity is quite nice and the only issues I have had with it are with triggertech triggers. I can't run a diamond in it, and with a special it has to be set to a really high weight. Tacsports and other trigger seem to work just fine with the tenacity.

This is the only reason I asked^. Area 419 is doing a tenacity with a diamond trigger for me right now.

Does anyone have any ideas why the trigger tech diamond wont play nice with the tenacity? I wanted to use one for a build with a TT diamond but I'm holding off until either the issue is figured out or I select a different trigger

So I have been running Defiance Tenacity's since the season began. One in 260 and one in 223, both built by Area 419. Both have TT diamonds installed and neither action/trigger has had any issue of any kind. Both have been flawless and are sitting at close to 4000rds combined so far. I would highly recomend them for someone looking at a budget friendly custom action. Not sure where the TT rumor started in the Tenacity, but I can confirm that they do indeed work...

Why is this not bigger news? This is the first I've heard of these. Guess I've been under a rock.

Mine is still running strong and accurate as ever.. running it had definitely smoothed out the bolt more.. I'm sure mine coming polished sped that up. I'm ocd about my bolt feeling smooth as glass.

I’ve ran close to 1000 rds thru my tenacity with the diamond trigger chambered in 6.5 creed by Beanland rifles without issue

Do yourself a favor and get a BnA Tacsport. It's a better trigger than the TT, and you time it to the action with the different sear heights and adjustable sear engagement.

When they get around to buying a Lefty Magnum, I'll buy one or 3....

 

[DangerRanger]

Anybody got pictures of the normal finish of a tenacity? Is the bolt polished?

 

[FrozenMinnesotan]

Here ya go

 

[DangerRanger]

FYI just placed an order and it seems all the new ones will be polished just like the other actions

 

[surgeon260]

Are they making long actions yet? I've only seen short actions for sale.

Yep, mine being built is a long action magnum. They actually had some with feed rails opened up for the ultra mags in stock when I ordered

 

[300_BLK]

These look great, gonna order two. one for me and one for the wife.

 

[CrossOut]

Darn! I won't have the only one any more. But I'm sure more people would appreciate them polished over media tumbled. I will say their polished isn't a perfect mirror. I took Emery cloth to mine. Started at 1000 and brought it up to 8000 for a nice mirror finish
