| Source measurement | In 2014, the IDF announced that in the future (from as early as the end of 2014) some infantry units could start to be issued some numbers of an improved X95, which will have a longer 380 mm (15.0 in) barrel, instead of the original 330 mm (13.0 in) barrel of the X95, and a lighter trigger pull. In September 2021, it was reported that Israeli front-line infantry units have begun replacing their Tavor and Micro Tavor Rifles with M4s and that the Micro Tavor Rifles in existing inventory will be transitioned to reserve brigades.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · History; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage Compared to the 890 mm (35 in) long M4 carbine (with its stock extended) with a 368 mm (14.5 in) barrel, the X95 is 580 mm (22.8 in), 640 mm (25.2 in), or 670 mm (26.4 in) long, with either a 330 mm (13 in), 380 mm (15 in), or a 419 mm (16.5 in) barrel, respectively.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage As of Spring 2020, all new 5.56×45mm NATO production X95's were upgraded with the .300 AAC Blackout recoil mechanism.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Design / Action; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage With the use of a relatively simple conversion kit, the X95 can be converted from a 5.56mm assault rifle to a 9mm submachine gun .[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Design / Conversion; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage A suppressor can also be attached, as part of the 9mm conversion kit, or as part of a replacement handguard which integrates the muzzle brake, suppressor, and handguard.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Design / Conversion; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage When configured in 9mm, the X95 uses a blowback system to cycle through the ammunition, whilst using the same body as the gas-operated rifle system. It uses Colt 9mm SMG magazines. The barrel is of the same length as of the rifle configuration, but has a 1:10 in rifling twist to stabilise the heavy 9mm round.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Design / Conversion; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The X95 is chambered in either 5.56×45mm NATO or .300 AAC Blackout . The .300 BLK configuration features a gas regulator for both supersonic and subsonic loads.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Variants / X95; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The X95-R is chambered in 5.45×39mm and can easily be rechambered to the three other calibres that IWI offers:[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Variants / X95-R; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The X95 SMG is chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum and is also available as a conversion kit.[source]IWI Tavor X95 · Variants / X95 SMG; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The "Restricted" models have a 13.0 in (330 mm) barrel and were made available starting 2021.
