Anyone have one? For some reason I can't stop looking at them. I had one in my cart but I chickened out.

I put one in my cart when PSA was running the X95 deal. One day to ship, arrived last Tuesday. I put a Holosun 503C on it and zeroed at 50 yds but have not shot it other than that yet.

Thoughts on it? I know it's one shot. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for it?
 
I had a Tavor SAR and sold it. It felt bulky to me, and while it handled nice, I couldn't get used to the controls or having to stick a mag into my armpit. I also didn't like the "back up sights" and the overall cheap feel of things like the charging handle. It was one of the "IDF" models with a mounted Mepro M21, which couldn't be removed, and while I like that particular optic, variety is the spice of life and not being able to change it out was kind of a downer.
The one I had was also nothing to write home about accuracy wise.
So yeah, not a fan of the magic Hebrew space guns.
 
I think there cool but being a lefty I don't want to spend the money to switch it over,, plus they are hard sales if you don't like them.
 
I'm trying to move away from just handguns and diversify my portfolio. That's what I tell my wife when she asks at least. I want something out of the norm which is why I've been looking at the tavor. I may start looking at the Kriss Vector in 10mm with the goal of making it a SBR.

Hi Amnesia,
The PSA deal was $1616.99 shipping included.
During my very limited use:
Pros - well balanced, feels very compact, soft shooting, mag release is similar to AR, trigger seems significantly better than the Tavor Sars I shot or dry-fired, and the groups I got at fifty yds were same as I got with an 805 Bren SBR at same session. Edit: I dislike the cutlass and and am very happy to be able to get a trigger guard for it. Also like the idea of hidden rails up front.

Cons - Not fan of bolt hold open location, replacement trigger packs are ridiculously expensive.

I have 2 of them and prefer them to other bullpups I have had. They shoot well and the weight distribution is good for quick shooting. Mine have MARS and Mepro optics which are redots. accuracy is as good as most midrange AR's. They eat every thing i have fed them, and haven't been magazine picky either. The Real question is are you a bullpup fan? If you have a friend with one shoot it and find out, Or rent one on a range. Also, they come up used affordable a bit or try to trade into one good.
 
I have an x95 and love it. Plenty accurate and handles very well. Heavier than you would think for what it is. If you are ever around PHA and want to run it a bit let me know.
