Manticore Arms X95 Optimus Polymer Forend Install

[@andrew2353]

Seriously cool handguard, looks to be a massive improvement over the OEM and Aluminium cantilever ones.

[@FattyShoots]

Really good video. I was bull headed and thought I don't need the instructions. Very glad I watched this. Got my forend on in seconds. Fits great.

[@j.p.4541]

Thanks bro, you the man! I couldn’t of done it without you, she looks great now!

[@PeaK808]

This is EXACTLY what I have been waiting for!

[@taxedtwodeath2887]

Yeah and that camo job you did on yours is sick

[@PeaK808]

@@taxedtwodeath2887 Thanks man! Im getting more confident and looking into getting equipped for cerakote!

[@robertdesrosiers2382]

Just put mine on today. Your video tutorial was perfect. Made it possible even for a fumble fingers like me.

[@Rb889]

That's an ingenious design. I'm kinda surprised IWI didn't have something like this from the factory, rather than supporting the handguard off the barrel.

[@Cbr978]

Best thing you ever did for the X95. I love it!

[@DavidSmith-ve5kj]

I wish the new top rail was machined so we could transplant the sights to the raised rail. I loved those hidden sights.

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

P.s. - please make a lot more accessories to advance the Tavor/X95 rifles into AR-15 levels of modularity and features. -Sincerely, everyone tired of AR-15s

[@svenjonsson9]

LOL, we are working on it! We have the largest selection of X95 accessories and upgrades available from any aftermarket provider. :)

[@davidray2682]

@@svenjonsson9 What I would love to see is a flared magwell for the x95. Keltec RDBs have them for that platform and its really good for fast reloads

[@Nidhoggr333]

Could I run a Deadair sandman with the forend?

[@eurothrasher2823]

Wish you had started with an unmodified x-95. With respect to the barrel blocks are they on new X-95's? if so, does the flash hider need to be removed to take them off.

[@Randomguy-fg6mb]

I have the Tavor X95 300blk with gas block adjuster, will this fit as well?. Thanks

[@waynemorgan8727]

I like the OEM backup sights on the X95. How difficult would it be to retrofit one of your rails with the OEM backup sights?

[@qwason13]

Thanx for the tutorial!

[@cdrdr]

Can anyone please answer this question, I have the original iteration of the tavor rifle will this still work for it??

[@ALovelyBunchOfDragonballz]

It only fits X95 models.

[@Hinru13]

Why do you keep recording vertical 😞😓😩

[@svenjonsson9]

Camera issue- even when recording horizontal sometimes youtube interperets the video as vertical, and we have not been able to find a solution as of yet! :(

[@kibosh8774]

Should the the top comment. Flipping my phone all over the place trying to get a better perspective

[@jimmynobody3461]

Is your forend lighter than the OEM PART

[@AZCactusTac]

Very helpful

[@alexanderstamatouras5389]

Thank you for your service.

[@peacockj08]

Weird my 3mm allen wrench is too small for the crossbolt

[@TerranPlanetaryDefenseForce]

Kinda which the rear part of the rail was tapered forward instead of tapering rearwards

[@derekhubbell4854]

is this compatible with the 300 blackout since it has the gas block adjuster under/inside the rail?

[@svenjonsson9]

Both the Optimus forend and the top rail (all of our top rails) for the X95 are designed to work with the 300 Blackout gas adjustment valve. There is a cutout in the top of the rail that allows you reach the gas adjustment.

[@ryukimura7302]

how about 20 inch barrel fore end?

[@007NunyaBizNess]

It would be even better with the regular pistol grip installed.

[@sharpshiell]

Will you ship to Canada? Edit: also I love your other stuff on my x95

[@svenjonsson9]

You can reach out to Aztech Armory who can import our products into Canada.

[@sharpshiell]

@@svenjonsson9 done, thanks...canada sucks

[@sharpshiell]

@@svenjonsson9 also, can you design and manufacture and you pistol grip that replicates a standard AR-15 pistol grip. I've been using a c7a2 rifle for too long for this thing to feel comfortable. just an idea.

[@svenjonsson9]

@@sharpshiell Interesting idea, not sure if we can make it happen, but we will definitely keep it in mind!

[@AmanVerma-bt7fr]

Was about to ask fellow Canuck! Thanks lol only feasible NR option for us Canadians since the cucks too the ars

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

Why does it show the pages for your X95 top rails as not available? I've checked three times the last couple of days and I thought y'all cancelled it.

[@svenjonsson9]

Not sure what you are referring to, the X95 Medium Overwatch and X95 Full Length Overwatch are both in stock and ready to ship.

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

@@svenjonsson9 I apologize I should clarify. When I go to the maticore arms website through the link on Google it shows that the product is missing. I'll double check and comment back if it's fixed.

[@MyWatchIsEnded]

@@svenjonsson9 It was a bad link on Google search. They're available through the website like normal.

[@davidwalsh5423]

Bought this same setup, followed all of your instructions and the top rail does not fit. Not even close.

[@davidwalsh5423]

@@Antigonus. I used a Dremel on the underside of the top rail. If you hold it next to the factory one you will see where they are different. Look near the screw holes on the under side of them. The optimus forend fit awful with huge gaps so I put it in my toolbox.
