As in i fondle the gun at work

I’m team no switch

X95 barrel is essentially a pencil profile. The additional cutouts on 2 location making it even skinnier than typical AR pencil profile.

If you're considering to remove the factory hand guard and install aftermarket like Manticore Optimus or Blk Lbl, you'll have about 8.25" of skinny barrel that's unsupported. The barrel is still rigid, but if you shoot suppressed, you can add up to 1lb of weight all the way at the end. The barrel gets very hot due to its thinness so POI can shift especially suppressed.

This might also explain some accuracy issue people reported. Free floating it might make it better when shooting cool and unsupporessed, but if you have a couple mags in, things might change.

Came across this nice article about EF88/F90. If only it’s available in the us https://sadefensejournal.com/testing-evaluating-the-ef88-assault-rifle/

Side note: should Austeyr has its own flair

Anyone has pic of the blk lbl handguard? The non-bipod one. Tried the manticore optimus, not for me, too wide, have been considering blk lbl.
