Has anyone else here ever had issues with compatability between a Geissele Super Sabra trigger pack and an X95? I am literally taking this out of my Tavor SAR and trying to put it into my X95 SBR and I cannot get the cover to close when the trigger pack put in place. It almost seems as if it should somehow sit lower, or something at the lowest part of the trigger pack is impinging on the cover for the compartment.
Any ideas?
Does anyone have a guide outlining best practices for setting up anchors on wood framed structures, residential or otherwise? I have to provide more instruction on fall protection for workers doing wood framing lately and don't have a good comprehensive document I can hand out yet.
I have all the OSHA FactSheets for fall protection for Residential Construction, the Guide for Fall Protection in Residential Consteuction, and the CPWR research document on trusses successfully being used as anchors, but none of them focus purely on what are the things to look for when setting up anchors based on which structural components can most likely support the load outside of manufacturer guidance for specific products or trying to get an engineer to give you an answer through an RFI that may never get answered.
Thanks.
Is anyone still making 45 degree safety barrels for the X95? I know there was a user here who did for a while, but it seems like the last batch was made three years ago.
If you have one of those safety barrels, would you be willing to either 3D scan it, or potentially have it sent off to a contract machinist to make duplicates if no one is actively selling them?
Does anyone know the percentage that the Rhodie 6 and Tisha increase the backpressure on a system? I am trying to get a can for an X95 SBR. The system is already over gassed, and the gas system is unadjustable. Huxwrx claims no more than a 1% increase, but I cannot find anything about these newer options.
Hello, I am looking to paint an X95 with Rapco paint and wanted to know how well the polymer housing holds the paint and if I have to do anything other than the standard degrease, scuff, degrease before application for prep work?
Do people usually try to disassemble the rifle first, or just paint it as is? Mask off the exposed metal components for things like the barrel lock?
My thought was to mask off the grip where my hand will sit and where my face will sit on the stock to try and reduce my skin exposure to harsh chemicals over time. Would doing this lead to peeling around the edges of the masked off area over time?
Thank you for the advice!
Who makes the smallest diameter X95 cutlass grip?
I always see people asking for a larger grip, but I have medium sized palms with shorter fingers which makes the standard cutlass and pistol grips feel bulky to me even without the ribbed IDF panels. I am open to options with and without the additional trigger guard bar and will be running a Geissele trigger.
Does the Gearheadworks TMF fit on X95 SBR? I have one for my Tacor SAR and was hoping to set something similar up for an X95 SBR in the future.
They also seem to be OoS everywhere. Does anyone else make a similar product?
Hello all, are there any multispectral camoflauge systems worth looking at other than Beez or Relv with a focus on thermal concealment? Does anyone have an idea as to the mechanism being used to improve the performance of these fabrics? I had heard aerosolized titanium or aluminum being applied as a coating, but that is just hearsay at the moment.
I am in the process of performing research with the end goal of developing an accessory to enhance the performance of multispectral camoflauge with a focus on the thermal spectrum. My next step is to get ahold of either a complete leaf suit/viper hood or make on using special fabric that has good multispectral/thermal camoflauge performance. It would be even better if the fabric was also inherently FR.
Thank you.
Bonus points to anyone who can recommend a good leaf suit option to checkout. I am currently looking at Lapa Gear, but I believe only their Multicam option uses NIR/IRR fabric for the leaves and was hoping for something in more of a fall leaves palette.
Hello everyone, what is currently considered the best plate and/or armor carrier on the market, and plates, specifically cut for women? I know Tyr Tactical has had their female Epic out for a while, and there is whatever has been issued to female Air Force personnel, but I haven't seen much else.
This would be for a 5'2" petite woman.
Thabk you.
Has anyone here ever found a company that makes "Barefoot" cut dive booties, booties cut more ergonomically for shorter wedge shaped feed with a wide forefoot, or a custom dive bootie maker who I could order something like this from?
The booties I have now are starting to show their age, and I would like to get something that actually fits the shape of my foot more properly the next time around. Just to give you an idea of what I am talking about, I wear Altra Lone Peak trail running shoes for hiking and backpacking in a size 10.5 in wide and something like a 6E work boot.
Thank you.
Hello everyone, has anyone here seen a notable improvement in the accuracy of their X95s after getting a habdguard which allows the barrel to be free floated?
I have a Tavor SAR 16" model that gets 2MOA consistently with 75gr PPU, but have not seen an X95 Stateside do better than 3-4MOA regardless of ammo and am curious is anyone is getting better performance than that and if they saw a dofference with a handguard swap.
I was issued a Tavor Commando and later an X95 in the IDF and have been getting the itch to buy an SBR'd X95 something fierce, so I want to see what is the current state of the rifles performance.
I am looking for the best rated soft armor, at the lightest weight, with the lowest amount of allowable back face deformation.
A while ago, there was a company (Trophy Gear Shop) trying to sell a battle belt with soft armor and STKSS compatability from Ukraine. I really wanted one, but couldn't find a way to ensure I would be able to get my money back if they did not deliver my order. One of the things they said in their video was that US soft armor back face deformation standards were much worse than those for Russian soft armor and even more so for the Ukrainian standards. Russian QC is all over the place, so it is unclear whether they will get what they claim you will, and Ukraine has a concealed and unconcealed standard for soft armor deformation with non-concealed soft armor having stricter requirements.
Does anyone make armor in the US which meets higher standards for back face deformation than the NIJ .07, or is there anyone worth specifically buying from to get quality Ukrainian soft armor for the purpose?
US NIJ .07
or
Trophy Gear Shop talking about the battle belts and soft armor. If anyone got one of these, I would love to hear about it as well.
