david8613 69 Posted April 27, 2016 Anyone here have an iwi x95, or handled one? I would love to hear your thoughts compared to the tavor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambo2936 297 Posted April 27, 2016 Its entirely a hit and miss.Personally, while i've never held the real IWI Tavor, i absolutely hate bullpups. I also like solid feeling rifles. I've heard that these feel fairly plastic-y and odd to hold. Other people absolutely love it.IMO, you're going to have to hold/shoot one and decide for yourself.While i love IWI, being an Israeli Citizen, i don't think i'd buy one myself. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob0115 1,105 Posted April 27, 2016 I have a Tavor and handled but not shot an x95. I liked the x95 ergonomics and feel a lot better. I have a Geiselle trigger in mine but I've heard the stock to stock the x95 trigger is much better. If I didn't have a Tavor I'd get one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NEHackettstown 21 Posted April 27, 2016 I just picked up an X95 a week ago. I had Tier One Defense in Mountainside pin and weld a VG6 Gamma brake. I installed a Geissele Super Sabra that Geissele modified to fit and the Lightning Bow. I love the changes made from the original Tavor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
david8613 69 Posted April 27, 2016 I had a tavor and liked it very much, sold it needing some quick money for something unexpected and i regretted it very much ever since. I placed an order for the newer x95 today, I haven't held it but from what I'm hearing she feels lighter, smaller and easier to handle even though it's not lighter or smaller than the original tavor.

tattooo 220 Posted April 27, 2016 I disliked bullpups myself until I bought and started shooting my Tavor and PS90.....hands down amazing 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambo2936 297 Posted April 28, 2016 I never shot a real bullpup, but have handled *airsoft* ones a few times before (almost bought an airsoft tavor) and absolutely refused to do so since because it felt so out of place. I might be surprised shooting an actual Tavor, but i don't know anyone with one and won't spend 2 grand on an experiment... haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leo-польд 35 Posted April 28, 2016 I disliked bullpups myself until I bought and started shooting my Tavor and PS90.....hands down amazing Same, own both and AK/AR's as well, and I love Tavor and PS90. Both great shooters and quality rifles. I am changing Tavor to 9mm winter time for indoor range and it is 10min of work conversion. I would buy X95 as soon I will see it in stores, unfortunatly we should wait long here ... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lhrocker 5 Posted August 24, 2016 I shot my friends x95 and it was pretty cool. The ergonomics was pretty good but getting used to the grip/trigger position was a little odd. It was fun to shoot with very little recoil, but I don't think I would spend that much money on a single firearm. He just put on a scope and was still working on getting it zeroed but the iron sights were nice and accurate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jfoster99 80 Posted August 24, 2016 I just picked this up last week... Sold the stock trigger for $150 and purchased a Geissle... I hope to get it to the range this weekend. So far I love the way it handles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jfoster99 80 Posted August 29, 2016 Geissle trigger feels awesome. Very smooth two stage... As good as any AR drop in trigger... To be honest the stock trigger was very nice as well. Not as good but very nice... If you are not willing to sell the stock x95 trigger to offset the cost of the Geissle I would just stick with the stock trigger. Also when IWI starts selling them at $199 it is a nice budget option to upgrade the trigger on a SAR21 Tavor vs $350 for the Geissle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambo2936 297 Posted August 30, 2016 Maybe a little late... GFH range has Tavor for rent. They are probably insanely expensive, though. Ive been seriously contemplating buying one, but demand is high and supply is low. Used tavors are going for retail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blacksmythe 71 Posted September 20, 2016 They are probably insanely expensive, though. Ive been seriously contemplating buying one, but demand is high and supply is low. Used tavors are going for retail. No its not that bad. depends what you think is expensive. One rental, time and a box or 3 of ammo. about $75. I like my X95 though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaconPancakes 3 Posted October 7, 2016 Will the x95 trigger drop in to the tar21 sar? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
medved11 71 Posted October 7, 2016 I'm not an expert, but I believe that I saw in a review that the X95 trigger pack is backwards compatible with the SAR21 with the exception of the first generation Tavor Will the x95 trigger drop in to the tar21 sar?Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
david8613 69 Posted October 11, 2016 Here is mine, playing with different grips, the iwi grip panels are bigger than stock grip panels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
