Dan;
The specs listed are for the Version available in Free states, i believe.. Note it says 13" Barrel. I believe the NJ compliant model we see here are longer, heavier, etc..  Not sure if specs are available for that model?

Seem fine. Not like you are mounting an optic on them. I cooked mine a few times and not one drip of melted plastic. [emoji6]

I swapped for the 13" top rail and short forearm for the x95..

 

What to do you think looks wise? It feels and seems to handle very nice. I have not gotten it to the range yet though.

 

The swap took all of 5 minutes.. my break is pinned on.. I was able to swap over the pinned break. very easy to switch back and forth. In the longer formed there was a muzzle bushing right behind the muzzle break. I left it off for now... going to see if there is any accuracy improvement. Others have reported no noticeable change in accuracy.

Anyone have any experience with an eo and magnifier on one of these? Wondering if you can see alright with a good cheek weld, as it will sit a bit low compared to it on my AR. May have to put an acog on it.

I have shot one with the Meprolite version of the EOTECH and it's a perfect set up for this rifle.

I've shot my SAR with eo/aimpoint with a magnifier it works but had a little more trouble than on an AR.  Might be my chubby cheeks though :D

Not sure, but there is another company that makes them. The name eludes me at the moment. People usually install them to avoid gas in their face when using a suppressor. I have never had that happen on mine. See no reason unless you are going to run one.

Try Manticore or Gear Head Worx

I think I want a 95

Take your pick. 95 pretty much runs down the whole east coast. [emoji23]

Plenty mile markers to pick from.
