    I was looking at one but seems there has been a few issues with materials ie hardness nitrating of parts or lack of? Parts galling I'm sure these issues will be fixed in time!

    Sort of. Defiance make actions for a number of shops including GAP. They make them to the shop's spec's and label brand them accordingly. They are fucking nice actions. Best turn bolt I've used.

    YES & NO ,

    The GAP Tempest is GAPs design , and it IS not made by Defiance , it is made by another machince shop , and IS only available from GAP , as a complete rifle or action .
    The Templar uses a action from Defiance .
