I was just notified that the new owners of Defiance will no longer ship to Canada......a bit disappointing as I have 4 actions on order, apparently 3 have crossed the border but the Defiance Rebel with a personal serial number is still in the Q......hopefully the phuckers honour the order and follow through with the build.

Disappointed to say the least, Im sure there must. be a Canadian company making actions !

That sucks bad. What about KS arms? They make an action but not sure how they compare in weight or quality. I have a KS barrel on a custom 280rem and shoots better than any other custom barrel I have had….

With the un-certainty of the OIC & C21 this is just the start of the fallout we are going to see.

+1 on that.
More than normal for a manufacturer to support it’s dealer network if they want one at all. GoBig Tactical is probably it in Canada.

Many US companies do not ship to Canada. Plenty.
OP could use an importer such as Irungun who have a foot print in the US and Canada. Prophet River also do import.

I had to set up an account with a US freight forwarder and pick up my stuff at the border, a 3 hours turn around drive for me. Not fun, but for some item, no choice.

Defiance shipped direct to end user in Canada?

Or is Defiance just changing who they will deal with in Canada going forward with new owners?

I could see them narrowing down who they deal with up here.

A bit of a click bait title.
 
Defiance is going through some unpleasantness including the buyout. Internet chatter south of the border is saying go elsewhere now, partly due to the massive wait list that existed pre-buyout.
 
Lots of information on snipers hide about this with little of it being good. The prices have been raised as well. Tenacity is now $1595 US which was their "budget" action. I had plans to have atleast 1 defiance action but that isn't going to happen now. Lots of good options available these days
 
A Defiance rep on SH just stated that Defiance is in dire straights financially, and may not make it past next month.

So I guess they have bigger problems then sending actions to Canada.

No I messaged them and they did message me right away and they did made it very clear they are stopping all shipping to Canada, they did send me a second message to contact them directly on my existing order and will try to fulfill the order,

They also did say they would hopefully ship outside of the US in the future.

"Click bait" was not right. Sorry about that. You would be the guy that would know what was what.

The new lighter Impact NBK hunting action. May I suggest you should check those out.......
 
This is bad news, I had a Defiance CRF Action on order since last March from Bighorn Sales. I already ordered a wildcat stock, benchmark barrel and other goodies for it.
