Thread title is pro / con of purchasing a X95. Just answering the question, its a con that you can not easily, quickly, and cost effectively get parts.
Its a piece of hardware, a tool. People shouldn't be emotional invested in a tool.
I have not read all the posts and I'm sure this has already been noted, but in response to the OP's original question, I can build 3 nice AR pistols for the price of a Tavor. I'd rather have multiple AR's, with replacement parts galore, than one Tavor that may be difficult to find parts for if things go South.
Thanks for all the replies. I don't have or can afford a Tavor but I do have a 300 BLK AR pistol and really like it.
No one is pretending anything other than some AR fanboys fabricating emotional reasons why no one should own one...To each their own and I never said M4, you have an x95 you love it, that is great. I sold mine because I didn't. But pretending like the logistical limitations and almost Rude Goldberg like design can not be denied. I can go buy anything I need to fix any of my AR's at an local gun shop. Can you do that for an X95?
This thread has become hilarious.
I'll continue to drive Ford trucks. You drive your Infinity, or BMW, or Land Rover if you want. Same concept.
Some of ya'll act like you're only allowed to have one gun... or only one vehicle for that matter. Give yourself options!
No room left in the safe.
And let that be a lesson. ALWAYS buy a bigger safe than you think you're gonna' need.
