Looks good!
Any issues with accuracy from your X95? What sort of accuracy are you getting from yours? |

I like it.
It's amazing how dramatically different the Tavor looks with just a handguard swap. |

Oh my. That's pretty. Is that aluminum? Or poly?
I really REALLY want a Tavor. Edit: is that a 16" or 18" under the handguard? |

For those with both the original Tavor and an X95, would it be possible to design a handguard like this for the X95? The handguard on the X95 is one of my only hangups about that design, and it's a big one. I like the original handguard and this design much better.

That's a nicely designed hand guard. Thanks for posting this.

Can a light be mounted at the 12 o'clock? Like a Surefire x300. Are these available stateside?

If you're a firearms or aftermarket manufacturer who might be faced with some kind of attempted ban in a few months, would you want to be sitting on a pile of components that will now only fit a limited number of "legal" guns in existence...or a silly effort to make all such guns illegal? |

Due to the design of the X95 an aftermarket HG will be tougher to design compared to the Tavor. The X95 uses a barrel bushing and the front of the optics rail for support. It also locks into to the trigger guard so much more complex than the Tavor HG.

I'm terrible about swapping and trying out all manner of components on a new gun, but my Tavor got a new Shooting Sight trigger, GH's charging handle, a cheap ambi-safety, and that's it. I actually like the handguard on my Tavor. But people are different, and the government hasn't cloned us into mindless robots...yet.

I changed or added about everything I could on my Tavor and it still was lacking. Never liked any handguards and the charging handle was too high. I actually liked the mag release though.
This handguard looks nice. Its flat not tapered and rounded slim bottom not squared and bulky. My X95 got a muzzle device and optic and I'm totally happy with it stock. |

I saw on the site, 275?! Dang.Does anyone know exactly how many Israeli parts are included in the SAR or X95? Does anyone know exactly which parts they are? A magazine counts for 3, so maybe a handguard doesn't put you over the line, maybe it does. Maybe the factory handguard is one of the Israeli made and imported parts, so using a Canadian made one would be a wash? I just don't know. Trigger? Sear? Hammer? Where were these made? Does replacing them with domestic aftermarket components like those from Geissele give you the room to use imported mags, or a handguard? Have you replaced the muzzle device? This is all stuff that HK and AK guys have been very familiar with for a long time. We would need more info from IWI to be able make informed decisions on our SAR and X95 guns, in order to stay out of ATFs crosshairs if we decide to start swapping out factory parts with imported replacements. |

As far as I know this is the IWI US list of imported Tavor parts:
1. Receiver 2. Barrel 3. Barrel Extension 4. Bolt 5. Bolt Carrier 6. Operating Rod 7. Trigger Housing 8. Buttstock/Pistol Grip (not sure if this counts as one or two parts) 9. Forearm And IWI warns to use only US made magazines to make the 922R parts count ... Looks like one could use any three US Made Barrel Extension, Trigger Housing, Forearm or Operating Rod and run any mag you want. Am I correct ??? |

Looks like one could use any three US Made Barrel Extension, Trigger Housing, Forearm or Operating Rod and run any mag you want. Am I correct ??? You may be correct, maybe not. The point is that without getting a specific list from IWI, we can only really confirm the origin of two parts. The barrel is imported, having stamped/engraved Israeli origin markings. The receiver, however, has to be domestic. ATF rules wouldn't allow it to be imported, because it will readily accept scary magazines that they don't deem "suitable for sporting purposes". Those are the only parts I can say with 100% certainty where they came from. The rest is a guessing game. Some can be educated guesses, but still guesses none the less. ATF is not going to come knock on your door and ask you to demonstrate your parts counts because you decided to use a foreign made magazine or muzzle device that can be readily purchased in domestic markets. However, when you file a Form 6 to get permission to import this forearm/handguard from Canada that can only be attached to a firearm that they are likely already aware is dancing a fine line on the count list, it may get noticed. ATF Inspectors still have more important things to do than come knocking on the door of an average Joe, but I could see the imports branch asking you to demonstrate your parts count before approving your Form 6. I have seen them request additional information for other reasons, before. I have also seen them just approve Forms with "conditions" attached. |

Magazine, flash hider, trigger, hammer, sear, and piston are the US made compliance parts. Using an imported handguard should not affect 922r compliance.

I think the registered "receiver" US made part of the x95 is actually the metal insert chassis, not the plastic outer shell.
