Reviews & Ratings for Geissele Super Sabra Lightning Bow Trigger For Iwi Tavor Rifles — 30 reviews — Page 1

Bought this and the Geissele Super Sabra Trigger Pack. These are not accessories, but must have upgrades.

Bought this and the Super Sabra trigger pack. Installed this first step by step.per the IWI video on YouTube. No problem with the install…trigger moved freely but would not trip the sear to release the hammer on either the factory pack nor the Geissele pack. Even called and talked to an IWI customer service guy at length who had the same trigger bow in his Tavor and nothing. IWI issued an RA # and shipping label for me to send the the rifle to see if they could make it work. Meanwhile, I decided to try to reinstall the factory trigger and return spring. Thank God someone had posted a picture of the spring position/layout and I was able to get it back together. WORKS LIKE A CHARM with the factory trigger bow and spring. Sent the trigger bow back for a refund and will not be trying another. Nuff said.

Very nice trigger with a crisp break. Makes the stock trigger feel mediocre.

Buying the Super Sabra trigger pack but forgoing the Lightning Bow trigger is like putting a new, high-performance engine in your car, then removing the gas-pedal. Ironically, it's probably easier to install a new motor in most cars than it is to swap the OEM trigger bow out of an X95. Just ask all the poor slobs who've badly damaged their Tavors trying to do so without proper instructions and the right tools. If you don't have an X95 barrel wrench AND an X95 Armorer Manual, don't even try it. I'm a better-than-average home gunsmith with a better-than-average set of tools (which includes an X95 barrel wrench). Nevertheless, after learning how many guys (many of them better gunsmiths than I) have destroyed X95 charging-handle and gas-system components trying punt their way through what, in point of fact, is a fiddly trigger-shoe removal and installation procedure, I swallowed my pride and had the work done by an IWI-certified armorer. To the subject of function, the Super Sabra Lightning Bow Trigger and Trigger Pack are collectively outstanding. While the X95's OEM trigger is good by bullpup standards, there's room for improvement. The Geissele aftermarket components significantly reduce creep, sharpen break, diminish over-travel, and hasten reset. Thanks to Geissele, my X95's trigger is now the best I've ever felt on a bullpup--and better than I've felt on many up-market fighting rifles.

Great price and fast shopping. A known need for the X95!

So much better trigger feel. The reset is nice and crisp. Trigger weight feels a lot better over stock.

Absolute Game Changer on my Tavor. Cannot recommend enough. Takes and super heavy trigger and makes it soft and smooth as butter. Optics Planet—thank you for excellent service and fast shipping!!!

This item is phenomenal if you understand what you're getting. The x95 has a squishy trigger, similar to a glock. This is what that fixes. It gives you a clean break. It does not change the pull weight. You will need the iwi wrench to install this item.

Upgraded to Geissele Super Sabra Lightning Bow Trigger from standard factory trigger. Money well spent - gives better finger position and easy to control the reset.

I installed this trigger on a x95. Using a Lyman digital pull gauge I measured the factory trigger pull to be an average of about 6 lbs 10 oz. The Lightning Bow alone (with factory trigger pack) reduced the pull weight to an average of 5lbs 6oz. The set screw allows you to reduce the amount of pre-travel in the trigger pull; however, taking away all of the pre-travel essentially makes the trigger a single stage. Aside from reducing the pull weight this trigger also helped slightly reduce the mushy feeling of the factory trigger. This trigger cannot eliminate the overall mushy/creeping trigger pull inherent to the factory trigger pack; however, it does make it feel a little less obnoxious. While the lightning bow doesn't fix all of the x95's trigger issues, its reduction in pull weight and pull length does make a huge difference. This product will give you the most bang for your buck when upgrading the x95 trigger.
