IWI TAVOR X95 XB18CA | 5.56 NATO | 18.5″ Barrel

The IWI TAVOR X95 XB18CA is the California-compliant variant of IWI’s modern bullpup rifle family, configured for .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO with an 18.5″ chrome-lined barrel and a flattop receiver. The X95 advances the original TAVOR design with an ergonomic fire control pack, relocation of the charging handle, and a modular pistol-grip arrangement. It ships with folding backup iron sights including a tritium front insert suitable for low-light use. A practical optic that pairs well and stays under $1,000 is the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24, which preserves the X95’s short profile while offering close-to-midrange flexibility.
