Quote History Quoted:
Do you have a Tavor? Have you fired other "military" rifles?
The standard Tavor trigger is horrible and approaching criminal.
The standard Tavor trigger is best compared to a caulking gun -- with thick caulk. Constantly checking the safety is Off - yep, it's off -- tells ya how heavy it is. Literally impossible to make accurate shots with the standard trigger. Some folks who removed the secondary trigger spring are experiencing failures to reset so that's not a general solution. After market triggers run $350 or so. IWI needs to license a working design.
The IDF choice of sights is a complete puzzle as the passive illumination only works in the dark with night adapted eyes and the passive illumination needs light to activate. Transitioning from light to dark and vv. works horribly. Standard rail will easy mount the Aimpoint CompM4 (M68 CCO) and battery life on this means there's never a reason to turn it off.

I agree - I see nothing wrong with the stock trigger.. it works great for the design/intent of the rifle...

The Tavor trigger is heavy, but it's not mushy or unresponsive. It has a clean, crisp break and a smooth reset. The only thing wrong with it is the pull weight. I did the safety check the the first time I ever dry fired it, yes.. but i've never since.
On the Mepro? Sorry, but you're just flatout wrong on that, it's not even a matter of opinion. Have you actually used a Mepro M21? I have an Acog, and multiple Aimpoints in addition to a M21 I decided to try out for my Tavor. You don't need night adapted eyes to use it in the dark. I can go from a bright sunny day to a pitch black room in seconds and see the reticle clear as day. It's got tritium (a good amount of quality, bright tritium) and I actually find my M21 to be brighter in pitch dark than my ACOG. I have NO idea what you mean by the passive illumination needing light to activate. It's a dual tritium/fiber optic setup like any number of Trijicon optics on the market. It's not freaking glow in the dark. And transitions between light and dark and vice versa work fine...as you go into brighter lit areas, the fiber optics brighten the reticle. As you go into darker areas, it darkens and the tritium takes over. Very smooth and easy. It's not a perfect optic. It's got a noticeable green tint to the glass, and now and then if you're aiming from a dark area into a very bright area, your reticle will get washed out and hard to see under that very specific set of circumstances. The CompM4 is a fantastic sight and I love mine. But judging by what you just posted about the M21, I don't think you've ever actually used it because essentially all of your points on it were incorrect.
