Dang, that LOP looks pretty long on the Tavor.. Any of you guys that have them already try it with armor on? I believe the LOP is close to 16". Correct: http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/b549/E36Variance/Tavor/DSCF1435-1024_zpscd7a5b96.png Damn, thats 2 inches longer than a UBR at full extension. I presume the reaward weight bias makes it not so awkward.? If you could put the X95 style recoil pad on it that would help, but then I think the rifle would be into SBR territory with regards to OAL. |

Have you never shoulder a Bullpup?. Just shooting an AUG A1, with a LOP of 15", without armor. The Tavor would be about 17'-18" LOP with gear. |

While I will be happy to get the IDF that I have been so excited about, I am starting to think I should have gotten the flat top. I am jealous of you guys (at least for a little while longer).
HardShell- I wanted to have the first one Alabama. No fair! |

How is the cheek weld with those optics? My leupold in an lt-104 is ready to go but I am now concerned if it may be a little too low? Also just curious what you thoughts were on the included mag?

I can answer on the CAA/IWI magazine. They are good to go. I attended a private shoot for gun writers last week where IWI had 5 brand new Tavors, straight out of the box with just a light spray on lube before shooting. (3) black 16.5" barrels, (1) IDF and (1) 16.5" FDE. All ran 100% with the 30-40 IWI/CAA 30 round magazines with sight window that we had on hand. We shot 1000+ rounds in about an hour through these guns, one of the guns was suppressed the entire time and ran great. The guns with optics were very accurate, I didn't care much for the back up iron sights, but they are backups and they work for their intended use.

Great pics/info.
Quoted: ... I didn't care much for the back up iron sights, but they are backups and they work for their intended use... I actually like how integral and unobtrusive the factory BUIS are, but I find them ugly as sin once deployed.  But I haven't shot it yet (this weekend!), so I may change my mind drastically about them after that. |

Argh, my dealer still hasnt heard anything from her distributors, some of them havent even received tavors from charles daly yet, and these are companies such as bangers, and davidsons.
Is there any way my dealer can order one directly from IWI? |

I was just wondering about direct sales, due to when i called your company, there was a "Sales" option, it's the one i selected when i talked to you over the phone a few weeks ago. So i didn't know if there were direct sales or not. |

Okay, back from my first (brief) range trip with it...
No accuracy work, just function testing and getting the feel for it at 25 yards... although I will say that with the Aimpoint (not zeroed yet, just laser boresighted) I was pegging even the smallest things I aimed at. I fired 300 rounds of mixed 55gr 5.56 ammo -- older M193, PRVI, and Georgia Arms. I used assorted magazines -- the CAA mag that came with the gun, a couple of the new MSAR mags, some 30-round PMAGs, and some aluminum USGI mags. I only spritzed a bit of oil into the works before I got started and verified the bore was clear, nothing more. No stoppages or problems of any kind. She made a perfectly fine first impression, I hope to get to know her a little better tomorrow after church... |
