Has anybody heard of a 2-pin Defiance container
I'm deciding on buying a new rig, the container is 2-pin, made by? or model? -- Defiance. I know they have been discontinued, but does anyone know much about them? I hate buying something, even a container, without knowing anything about it...
I've done all kinds of googling and searching on these forums for anything but have found nothing really useful. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks

Best harness and container system ever built bar none! Does it come with the original pilot chute ?

I jumped a Defiance rig a handful of times, while I was traveling with a guy who had one. It was my understanding that it was made in the place that the Racers are made by a guy who would just come in an make rigs after hours. THere were not many of them made.

No complaints about the rig at all. It was kind of lightweight and comfortable and performed like any old 2 pin rig. Pin cover/ closing system was clean enough. Rig seemed fine to me.

I believe it was the place where the Infinity is built.

The few I have seen were very nice. I'd have no problem jumping one myself.

Very clean design and solid construction.
