The Tanfoglio Stock Master brings together the ultimate set of features for today's Production Division Shooter. It takes the frame of a STOCK III and combines it with the highly desirable features found on the STOCK II. Full Conical Bull Barrels with Semi-Polygonal rifling come standard and are lengthened to match the length of the STOCK III frame. The Defiant STOCK Master uses a lightened slide like the one found on the Limited Custom to quicken cycle time and lockup. This model ships with 2 magazines, ambidextrous safeties, hard chromed finishing, fiber optic front sight, and the fully adjustable rear SuperSight.
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 38 Super Automatic was was introduced by Colt in 1929, essentially an update of the older (and obsolete) 38 Automatic. 38 Super is loaded at higher pressure for significantly increased velocity and energy. Ammunition can be chambered in 38 Automatic pistols but must not be used; all 38 Super Automatic ammunition is headstamped "+P" denoting higher pressure. The 38 Super Automatic uses a .900-inch case with a .355-inch bullet, developing a speedy 1240 feet per second with a 125-grain bullet. The case is semi-rimmed and requires a unique and slightly larger frame than the 45 ACP, which has reduced its availability and popularity. Even so, 38 Super Automatic pistols have remained available and are now seeing a resurgence in popularity. — Craig Boddington
