Tavor ARClight XTL forearms are now available! Naked versions are available right now, Fully Loaded will be available in about 15 days when we finish the current batch of Light Rings. The ARClight XTL forend comes with a ton of features 1. Works on 16.5" AND 18" guns and can mount a light in either configuration 2. Monolithic 6061 T6 aluminum construction- no screws or welds to fail 3. Interior clearance allows you to "sleeve" over a suppressor up to 1.5" 4. Two integral QD sling swivel pockets on each side of the forearm 5. Adjustable light ring mounting location to accommodate a greater variety of light setups- as long as the light has a 1" diameter area you should be able to mount it 6. Wire routing slots at the lower rear so you can run a tape switch to the exterior or a vertical foregrip without having to squeeze it through a rail slot! P.S. we have a small number of "pre-production blem" parts from when we finalized the programming- they have a very small notch at the back lower edge that does not affect function, but they aren't "perfect" so we are offering them at a slight discount. Both Black and FDE available!

Tried one of these with an AAC suppressor like the SDN-6 or M42k? I know you mention it'd fit, but curious if there's room to hit the release latch on it. Thanks!

I honestly do not know the answer to that question! The forearm actually has a clear internal dimension of 1.875", so it should be no problem to install, and it only sleeves about 1/2" over the muzzle device on a 16.5" barrel, so I am fairly confident that it should work, at worst you might have to use a small tool to depress the latch to get the first turn or two done and then after that it should be easily done by hand.

That really makes the Tavor pop. A very practical and it is pretty easy on the eyes.

Looks like a nice piece.
Now we need one that's helium filled and a couple pounds positively buoyant to make that bitch of a rifle lighter. |

In all reality, the Tavor is under 8 lbs minus an optic, it isn't any heavier than your average AR-15 with a railed forend, plus the center of gravity is closer to your body on the Tavor. |

That's the first thing I noticed. When you initially hold it, it does feel pretty heavy. I think because it's so compact, it feels more dense or something. But when you shoulder it, nearly all the weight is at your shoulder and just disappears. |

I picked up one of your blem samples and wanted to give some quick feedback. The fit is outstanding and the finish is pretty good for it being a blemish. There were a couple of small dings that were covered with anno, so they were likely cause post production but pre anno. I run this rifle as a rifle, so it isn't a big deal. The anno is also a little weak and has a purple tint in the right lighting. I plan on painting my entire Tavor in Coyote brown at some point, so not a big deal. The cut out notch also isn't really a big deal, either.
I prefer the feel of this over the old handguard. It locks down solid, and looks great. I was going back and forth on muzzle devices, and couldn't justify the cost of the Flaming Pig, or the Ferfrans CRD, so I opted for this 2 piece kit from Kineti-tech. With this being so short, I just wanted something to direct the blast more forward. So far, I'm digging this setup. I'm still not sure what I am going to add on as far as lights go. I may just go with an IR light for my PVS-14.
