− | The IWI X95 ( | + | The IWI Tavor X95 (also called Micro-Tavor, MTAR, and MTAR-21) is the submachine gun variant of the TAR-21 designed and produced by Israel Weapon Industries (IWI), part of the Tavor rifle family, along with the TAR-21 and the Tavor 7. |
− | + | In November 2009 the Tavor X95 was selected as the future standard issued weapon of the Israeli infantry. | |
− | + | The Tavor X95 can be easily distinguished from the TAR-21 (as well as from CTAR-21, STAR-21, and GTAR-21) by the location of the cocking handle. An X95 cocking handle is closer to the pistol grip, while a TAR-21 cocking handle is closer to the muzzle. The stock was also slightly redesigned. | |
− | When configured to fire | + | With the use of a relatively simple conversion kit, the Tavor X95 can be converted from a 5.56 mm assault rifle to a 9 mm submachine gun. A suppressor can also be added to the weapon, as part of the 9 mm conversion kit, or as part of a replacement hand guard which integrates muzzle brake, suppressor, and hand guard. The Tavor X95 also has its own underslung grenade launcher, the X95 GL 40. A discontinued production model of the X95 the X95-GL had the capability to mount a M203 grenade launcher on an extended notched barrel. |

+ | When configured to fire 9 mm rounds, the gun uses a blowback operation to eject and reload rounds, but in the same body as the gas-operated rifle reloading system. It is fed from Uzi magazines. A suppressor can be mounted that allows for the use of standard velocity 9 mm ammunition, not specialized subsonic ammo. The barrel is the same length as the rifle version, but has a 1:10 in rifling twist to stabilize heavy 9 mm bullets. | ||
