IWI US X95 5.56 NATO 18" 30-Round Bullpup Rifle

The IWI Tavor X95 5.56 NATO 18-inch 30-round Black rifle represents the next generation of bullpup design from IWI US, Inc. This platform merges the compact footprint characteristic of bullpup ergonomics with modernized controls and accessory mounting that address real-world operator feedback. The 18-inch barrel in 5.56 NATO delivers effective velocity for intermediate-range precision while maintaining the overall length advantage that defines the bullpup category—ideal for vehicle-mounted operations, room-clearing, and confined-space tactical environments.

Key upgrades from the original design include a refined fire control pack with a 5–6 lb. trigger pull optimized for precision without excess creep, repositioned ambidextrous magazine release relocated to AR-15 pattern position for intuitive operation, and a modular pistol grip that accepts both proprietary Tavor and standard AR-pattern grips. The forearm features Picatinny rails at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions with removable covers, enabling mounting flexibility for optics, lights, and vertical fore-grip configurations. The charging handle sits closer to center mass, reducing reach during prone operation and simplifying manipulation under body armor.

This rifle serves law enforcement tactical teams, military units, and trained civilian operators seeking a compact 5.56 platform with proven ergonomics and modularity. The 30-round capacity paired with the efficient bullpup profile makes this platform suitable for patrol carbine roles, close-quarters battle training, and home defense scenarios where overall length is constrained. Weighing 12.06 lbs unloaded, the X95 maintains reasonable balance and portability while delivering the ballistic performance of a mid-length 5.56 system.
