This new review vid on the gun has got me wondering:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlApL_aNxoI

What exactly causes POI shifts on the Tavor once it gets warmed up? Is it thermal expansion of the front barrel support? The QD barrel system? The older SAR Tavor has had the same issues also since its inception.

What I don't get is how a rifle designed for full-auto (and therefore HOT operation) can have such significant thermal POI shift issues even in semi-auto operation?

Do any aftermarket companies offer remedies for this issues?

I feel like this is a pretty glaring flaw on an otherwise pretty good bullpup. It's got one of the best control schemes, triggers, balance, and ergonomics of any bullpup on the market. Everybody was saying IWI would fix the accuracy issues with the x95, but they're still persistent.

Also jewrifle general I guess.
>>
>>31206928
In combat you are rarely using automatic in anything except very very short bursts
>>
The amount of missinfo on this gun is pretty hilarious.

There's no poi shift.

The guns are getting 2-3moa pretty consistently. Some groups have horizontal stringing.

See the 3 or 4 videos MAC has just about the accuracy of the gun because there's so much missinfo.

After like 2 magazines (of slow fire at distant targets, mind you) there was significant vertical stringing.

Makes you wonder why he's that invested into proving what an awesome rifle the Tavor is. Most people would be like, "here's a video showing how much I like the Tavor" and leave it at that.

>>
>>31208936
Stringing doesn't mean every shot moves the same direction every time, dumbass.

Stringing isn't a POI shift but stringing can point to a POI shift. A myriad of factors can cause stringing.

Bullets can land all over a horizontal line for example. The POI isn't changing. They don't have to shift. You see this when the rifle's trigger is shit.

The most common example is new pistol shooters shooting to the left.

When you jerk the trigger, or anything else that is on the operator-side of shooting, you are changing the POA. The mechanical aim of the firearm is altered whether intentionally or not.

It's not the firearm's fault when you jerk the trigger.

I have a feeling the X95 was tested and pretty much engineered for the military issue 13 inch barrel, something that they needed to change to get it into the USA, so they extended the foreend and pushed the barrel out to make it NFA legal not thinking about the repercussions of doing it.

First you have a 16 inch pencil profile barrel working against you. Also a long stroke offset AK Style piston (mounted on a carrier of AR-18 lineage), which is known to introduce all kinds of interesting harmonics compared to inline DI.

I would be very interested in seeing super high speed photography (maybe even cutout versions so you can see the barrel, action and piston better) of both the X95 and tavor to see if my theory is correct. It would be nice to compare those to the Israeli military models too.
>>
>>31209716
The X95 flattop models have 16" barrels. So do the ones for the grenade launcher but they have a different rail I think. It's not a US only thing.

This is a problem with plastic guns, just like the G36. The barrel and mechanism of a gun need to be mounted rock solid in an aluminium or steel receiver.

>which is known to introduce all kinds of interesting harmonics compared to inline DI
Like what? And of what magnitude?

I keep seeing "harmonics" brought up but noone actually talks about it. Literally the only person I've ever seen talk in depth about barrel harmonics is Varmint Al, and I have never ever seen anyone here discuss his findings.

Is all gun talk just people pretending to know more than they do?
>>
>>31211717
What are you talking about? The G36 is the only rifle that actually uses polymer mounting, the rest just have polymer bodies the same way older rifles used wood.

>>31211751

Not that guy but I think he's talking about the moment arm within the action (bolt I guess) introduced by the offset force of the piston operation. This is what results in "carrier tilt" on piston-driven ARs.

In the AR (which isn't a DI system like everybody memes) the gas is solely used to unlock the BCG. There isn't really a moment arm, and pretty much only axial forces act on operating the bolt.

What this means in terms of firearm accuracy I really have no idea. I mean you have some fantastically accurate piston-driven rifles out there so it's not like that system is inherently inaccurate or anything.

>What this means in terms of firearm accuracy I really have no idea.
Nothing because by the time any of the action moves the bullet has left the barrel.

Carrier tilt has nothing to do with harmonics. See this is what I'm talking about, nobody seems to even know what barrel harmonics are, let alone have a clue on their magnitude or impact on accuracy.

http://varmintal.com/amode.htm
LITERALLY the only person I've seen not talking out of his ass about harmonics, and he even suggests the effects are so minimal they are pointless when compared to forced deformation (something fucking nobody ever talks about).

If you want to talk the effects of actions on mechanical accuracy then let's talk about how this thing can shoot MOA twice in a row on one trigger pull.

>>
>>31211846

Oh so when people are talking about harmonics they're talking about actual vibrational harmonics of the barrel itself?

That makes more sense. But still like you said the action does not unlock/disengage until after the bullet has left the barrel so how would the type of action affect anything? I can't imagine it making a difference.
>>
>>31212026
The only way the type of action will impact accuracy is if the construction leads to a non-concentric change of pressure on the barrel when the gun get hots.

Basically uneven heat expansion, which is just shoddy design. There's no reason why a long stroke piston should be worse than anything else if you design the housing right.

I suspect it's just IWI cheaping out on construction, which is extremely common in the gun industry. Almost everything is designed, not to be the best, or even good, but simply adequate.

The problem is that bullpups have certain technical and ergonomic challenges that can't be half-assed if you want to actually see benefit over a traditional layout, like the trigger linkage, fire control and mag release, length of the action/stock and location of the ejection port. This requires ingenuity, but most of all it requires not cutting corners, which is the exact opposite of what most major gun manufacturers do. So you end up with rifles that were designed to be exactly average but have unaddressed technical issues that make them substantially worse while failing to capitalize on the advantages of the layout (have you seen the length of pull on some of those things).

tl;dr bullpups require commitment to get the benefits and they almost never do (instead they just try to put the trigger on the other side of an AR-18 clone as cheaply as possible)
>>
>bullpup meme

IDF vet. Sorry to say, but on the Micro (what we call the x95) you got a pretty gimped version to get around export/import laws. The Tar 21 you got was okay though, and I liked it better anyways.
>>
>>31212232
Can you tell us exactly what got gimped?

Personally the only real benefit I saw from the X95 was the reduced stock/action length, mostly due to removing the spacer at the very rear. But recently I see images where it has been added back on so I'm not even sure about that.
>>
>>31208224
I wouldn't say it's "bad" but for the price of the x95 you can put a Larue barrel on an ar15 which is guaranteed 1 MOA

It's not like blooptubes are particularly loud. If anything explosions (and sonic cracks) are going to make it extra hard to correctly detect and identify any muzzle rapport.

The Tavor, well, it's the Tavor. That's the gun whose development started in the late 90's and was addopted by it's main marketing tool, the Israeli Defence Forces, in mid/late 00's. This is also the version that was sold in the US in the past few years.
The X95, aka MTAR or Micro Tavor, is, in package terms, what the M4 is to the M16A1. It holds little to no changes to internal parts, but places those in smaller, even more compact body than the Tavor. In addition, it holds several smaller design changes, which mainly include: switch to a "classic" AR15 mag release, shifting of the charging handle to the more backward position (bit less ergonomic, but more suitable for CQC as it's less likely to get caught in doorframes), slim-er profile for the bolt release, more&better placed rails as well as greater customization options.
Due to US laws, the civilian version of the X95, is, de facto, the same length of as the "full-fledged" Tavor by having a longer barrel and thinker butt-stock. This beats the entire original purpose of the X95, but still offers the other changes and improvements mentioned above.
