I don't know. It came as an accessory with a B.E. Meyers 2nd Gen. NV scope from the 80's. |

Do they have to be ARs? I've got a Daewoo with an IDF sling and I'm keeping it pretty simple.

Here is an interesting photo for you folks to ponder as you build your clones. If you can stop laughing at the helmet covers long enough to look at the weapons you'll see the guy on the left in the foreground has one of those 13" bbls alluded to earlier in this thread. I've never seen one until this photo. As you can see, it is considerably shorter than the other but longer than a commando length bbl. Also note that the slings are attached to the front leg of the FSB triangle instead of the rear leg.
I like the look of the 13 " bbl. Might be a good SBR build for when I get back ...

You can find them at the Zahal website if you don't mind waiting for it to come from Israel. Otherwise check ebay. ETA: I bought mine from desertpatches.com, the price was very reasonable and shipping was downright cheap. I don't see them listed on their website right now but you may want to shoot them an email and ask if they have any in stock. |

Not sure about the push ups part, they look more like they were bobbling for apples in a vat of brownie mix. The optic is a Meprolight M21, sort of the Israeli equivalent of the Trijicon RX 01 series of reflex sights. I've no experience with them other than handling them. |

I want to build an IDF clone and would like to get a nice worn looking rifle to start with. I would like to find a deal on something that would most accurately resemble IDF issue and I don't want to buy something new and artificially wear off the finish, it just won't look as good.
Anybody see any deals on a nice used AR with a worn out finish? Everything I see in equipment exchange is too new looking. |

I'm looking for some info on if the Israeli's run a 20 inch A1 configuration.
Like a 603 or something similar. I've seen all the 13.5 and carbine A1's they run, but wondered if there was a rifle config out there. |

In most of the photos I've seen, the original handguards were replaced with A2 handguards. I've seen a few photos with the original triangle handguards, though.
