Great service from Bullpup Armory, part fits perfectly and looks like it’s been there from the factory.

Shell Deflector works as advertised, BUT...
May 10, 2018
Reviewer:

...but not for what I'm trying to do. I'm using my Tavor for home defense with reduced loads: 60gr ballistic tip bullets at about 2600fps. This reduces the blast, flash, and recoil for use inside confined areas. This load operates the action reliably and will defeat Level III armor and still penetrate/expand. Unfortunately, it doesn't have enough zip to reliably catch the Percival deflector and still whacks me on the lower inside part of my chin. Not as badly as with the stock deflector, and not as often, but still leaves those half-moon cuts. Will leave it on the weapon since it works with what Percival tested: mil 5.56 and commercial .223. This is NOT a negative review - I took a chance on trying it with reduced loads that hadn't been tested. Just wanted to post this in case someone else was wondering about the same thing. Way I figure it, if it gets to the point where I'm operating from the weak side in a social situation, a few marks on the chin will be the least of my worries.
*** BPA Response: The Percival Armaments deflector has extra material on the "tab" that sticks down in the ejection port window (on the 5.56/223 version). Try removing some of that material (maybe even on an angle), as the cases usually bounce off of there first and can miss the entire deflector outside of the ejection port window...

This small piece keeps the shells from leaving half-moon shaped cuts in my lefty friends chin when shooting my Tavor.

PREDICTABLE CASING EJECTION ....
March 26, 2018
Reviewer:

Case ejection from my X95 was unpredictable based on the different loads I was shooting. The PA X95 deflector corrected that. Now lower powered .223 rounds eject in the same direction as the 5.56 casings. The weapon is now safe to practice off hand engagements, without the worry of hot casings hitting the body.
