This is pretty fast work by IWI-US standards! They’ve also recently announced that they’ve manufactured 50k standard Tavors for the US market, which is also quite an accomplishment.
Unfortunately, I probably won’t have an X95 soon due to MD’s ban on rifles with an OAL of less than 29″, not to mention being out of space in my gun safe and having a five year old about to enter Jewish day school (tuition!). Still, if I can find a friend with one, I’ll try to get a review together.
