I have someone that is going to sell me everything in the conversion kit besides the recoil system. That's why I was trying to see if I could use my 300bo recoil system for the 556Did you buy the barrel swap kit or the caliber conversion kit?
Caliber conversion includes everything.
Ya, they are different. No go without the 556 assembly. Why would they retain the bolt assembly?I have someone that is going to sell me everything in the conversion kit besides the recoil system. That's why I was trying to see if I could use my 300bo recoil system for the 556
IwI says the 300 Bo and 556 recoil systems are exactly the same 556 bolt fits and everything just the Piston is slightly larger on the 300 boYa, they are different. No go without the 556 assembly. Why would they retain the bolt assembly?
Sorry, should have clarified, I meant to ask why the seller is keeping the bolt/recoil assembly and not selling it with the rest of the kit?IwI says the 300 Bo and 556 recoil systems are exactly the same 556 bolt fits and everything just the Piston is slightly larger on the 300 bo
I would have assumed the 5.56 recoil spring would be stiffer than the .300 BO considering the difference in spring rates between my .300 BO and 5.56 AR systems.IwI says the 300 Bo and 556 recoil systems are exactly the same 556 bolt fits and everything just the Piston is slightly larger on the 300 bo
Is the piston 9mms or 7mms. Did the recoil system come right out of a 300 bo tavorIIRC my 5.56 X95 uses the .300blk bolt carrier system.
looking at it, it appears to be the smaller.Is the piston 9mms or 7mms. Did the recoil system come right out of a 300 bo tavor
I'd call IWI to see what they say about parts compatibility.Lmaooo so true but not in the budget lmaooo
I was gonna call on Monday but got to anxious and wanted to see if anyone had tried itI'd call IWI to see what they say about parts compatibility.
Smart, I'd check beyond this forum to see what the internet might hold, bigger pool of information. The Tavor conversion swap was reported to be much more involved than most people would bother with.I was gonna call on Monday but got to anxious and wanted to see if anyone had tried it
I literally searched the tavor forums,the deepest parts of reddit, bullpup forums,ar15.com with no luckSmart, I'd check beyond this forum to see what the internet might hold, bigger pool of information.

Thanks for the help!!!! No barrel wrench just ordered one yesterday but I'll see if I can get in theredo you have a barrel wrench? If you can take your rifle down and post pictures of where your piston connects to your barrel assembly, we can compare notes. i've got the 5.56, you've got the .300 and an answer can be found
Good idea. I was thinking some calipers on the 5.56 compare to the .300 BO would determine this rather quick, if the dimensions are effectively identical, it seems a no go, otherwise IWI would have made them identical if it didn't matter.do you have a barrel wrench?
