Just missing the X95.
I was finally about to get a Masada slim after waiting over a year to get one. It is an elite model too which it am even better find. I am pretty stoked!
Looking for a Masada threaded barrel. Every time I google it, a Masada WITH a threaded barrel are shown in the results, but no threaded barrels. IWI US doesn't have any. I'm on the "wait list" for something that may or may not ever come. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I tried downloading the manual but I haven't been able to find anything
I have attended several classes from them and always thought they were good and a good value. Here's the email from Tom, a good teacher and an upstanding gentleman:
It is regret that I have to let you know the IWI Academy will be winding down this year. We have a few courses left that were already pretty full, then it will only be armorer courses. I will be continue training under my own banner (Spatha) within a month or so. But there are limited people for so many tasks here. The Academy is a lot of work and is probably one of the most rewarding things that I get to do. We have more on the horizon, so that is what I am adjusting to. I want you all to know that it has been a pleasure working with you in the rain, snow, heat and everything else in between. I hope that myself and fellow instructors have made a long lasting difference in your training and mindset. I hope we ranked well in your training experience and that you walked off the range better than when you stepped on. Please know I will be here to answer your questions. I am on the Instagram @thomasalibrando with tips and training advice. I will be available for questions when you have them. IWI produces some really good weapon systems, but systems are only as good as their operator. Please continue to be the best you can in this critical skill. I hope to see you on the range again someday. Thank you all for all you have given to me. I learn from you as well and will always be a student.
Be safe and thank you all again.
Hey guys if anyone is looking for a masada slim they appear to be in stock at battlehawk armory.
As one of many who has been waiting some time to find a Slim I’m hoping for more info.
Frame kits are on order, in the next couple of days these will be listed on the IWI webstore. Sign up for email notifications to grab one when it arrives.
Kit will retail for $50 and include the frame, 3 backstraps, and two backstrap pins.
Morning all,
Masada Slim Elite 17 round magazines and sleeves will shortly be posted on the IWI US Webstore. I know people have been asking since launch so here they come!
Hey there! I was wondering if anyone had an extra Gen 1 handguard(preferably in new condition) that they would willing to part with/sell. Any help is appreciated!
I posted a pic earlier and a few guys gave me some much appreciated advice, so I took it and moved my lpvo back off the spot where the handguard and receiver meet.. And while I haven't been able to shoot it like this yet, I can already tell it's much better.. This is my first lpvo, everything else I have has a red dot on it.. I really appreciate the advice and the way u guys refrained from roasting me 😂
TXC Holsters appears to finally have their specific Masada Slim Mischief Machine holster up on their site. Just ordered one to try: https://txcholsters.com/collections/all-holsters/products/build-your-own-x1
I’m going to SBR my x95. Do I have to get the 13” kit or can I have someone chop it and thread it?
Sharing this pic of the IWI booth wall at SHOT Show 2025
So this is now real. Slim Elite polymer with rail, backstraps, magwell, and 17nd mags with a sleeve or sleeve base plate. They also have the mischief machine metal frame listed as a whole pistol, and not just the frame. Anything posted from shot show about this yet?
I've been scouring the internet for months looking for Masada slims. At times the commander grip went out of stock too. I didn't want to purchase it until I had locked down a slim. I put myself on every waiting list on every website that I could find that carries Masada S. Finally, around thanks giving I managed to get both. One beautiful morning I got a notification from a website that they had 5 in stock and jumped on it. Also got the grip for 15% off from IWI's Black Friday deal. Thanks to the "wonderful" NY gun laws, 2 months later I now have my dream EDC.
Adding a link for the shop that had it. They no longer have them but were a pleasure to deal with. Also ordered my eps carry from them. They gave me $50 off of the eps and $50 off of the slim. Ended up paying $400 for the slim and $280 for the eps carry.
Took my new Carmel to the range to sight it in today and experienced a weird problem with the trigger. The first magazine of Magtech 5.56 shot fine with no malfunctions or problems. The trigger felt just like I've heard other people describe it - like a nice two-stage AR trigger with a light takeup, a defined wall, and a crisp break. It felt pretty similar to shooting a Larue MBT-2S.
A few rounds into the second magazine (same ammo as the first), things started going wacky. The trigger pull changed completely after about 5 rounds - the wall disappeared entirely and the trigger turned into a single stage trigger with a rolling break. It also started breaking at a super light pull weight, and would break with barely any pressure applied to it. To add to that, I was getting light primer strikes every few rounds as well.
I already filled out the support form on the website, and since it's a weekend and tomorrow is a holiday I'm not expecting to hear back for at least a few days. I was wondering if anybody else had experienced a similar issue and how you might have gotten it resolved. My serial number starts with CH004-, meaning it's not included in the recall from a few months ago. I'm stumped as to what would have caused this to happen.
Would the sig #6 front and #8 rear sight work with this? I can use the stock sights, but I just prefer night sights. Was looking at the truglo front/rear combo or the sig x ray3 sights.
What do I do now lol I’ve got a vortex spitfire 3x prism scope I can mount on the rail.
