Tavor FAQ (updated 08 December, 2008)

[Painkillers]

Has anyone got access to 18.5" barrels with the bayonet lug attachment?

 

[I Dont Care About You]

Well, the Israelis are kinda busy and the Americans just banned any foreign firearms shipments for 90 days, soooooo... EE it is!

It is my understanding the X95 we get are made in the USA?

It is my understanding the X95 we get are made in the USA?

They're "made in the US" in the sense that they're assembled from majority Israeli components and the bare minimum of US-made components to be legally compliant

 

[I Dont Care About You]

I guess no new X95 in Canada for a while then.

It's funny, a couple of months ago there were loads of them on ####### and some of the prices were as good as dealer cost. Now there are people asking near ludicrous prices for the few that are still listed.

The X95s we get are made in Israel, the only ones that are made in the USA were/are purchased through I Run Guns.

I had the X95, but sold it 5 years ago and really regret it! Now, I want to buy one again. Do you guys know any place that still have the black ones in .223 in stock?

Good luck. The only ones right now are on the EE or gp.

Honestly, I had both the X95 and the T97 gen 3. I sold the Tavor cause I couldn't justify double the money in something rudimentarily better. But now even the T97 are sold out. The community for the X95 is very big and there are almost no mods available for the T97, mostly because our friends down south only wish the could buy one. Otherwise, I bet more than one cent, that the Tavor X95 would not be as popular.

There is a loon on ####### who has listed a lightly used X95 for $10,000. Just the rifle, no optic, no accessories, nothing.
I wish I was kidding.

Took the wife's new (to her) X95 out today to zero it. I just dropped an Aimpoint CompM4 onto it and the thing shot right to point of aim. Didn't adjust the sight at all.

She's pretty happy with the X95 as it balances a lot better than the WK180 she started with. She chose the Aimpoint over an LPVO for less weight. All in all, she's happy and finds the X95 more fun to shoot, which means she'll shoot it more often.

 

[Painkillers]

I had one on the orange site for a proper price. She's gone.

 

[I Dont Care About You]

There is only one 556 X95 currently listed on ####### that is not marked as SOLD. At the asking price, I'd bet the rifle has sold and the seller just didn't change the listing.

 

[I Dont Care About You]

Dec 17, the panicking has started. There are 7 new X95's posted on ####### and 3 of them are already sold. Prices are somewhat better with a few asking under $3k.

If these are the dying days of civilian gun ownership in this frozen communist sh!thole of a country, I can think of few places $3k would be better invested. Get ‘em while you can boys.

Agreed. We have "his & hers"

 

[I Dont Care About You]

I shot my wife's X95 weak side this afternoon. I'm a lefty and she's a righty so we have both. It wasn't nearly as difficult as I thought it might be. It has a red dot, so relatively easy to line everything up for me.

Question for Tavor 7 owners. Was the QD for the sling included with your purchase?
Thx!

Should come with the IWI key tag, two sling swivels, cable lock, and operator's manual in plastic packaging with the rifle.

 

[Sharkdogg]

Thanks!

Mine wasn't, but the sling I bought included everything I needed.
