All of the major parts (barrel, bolt, receiver) are made in Israel. Magazine, flash hider, trigger, hammer, sear, and piston are the US made compliance parts.

Quoted: Curious, which American parts the Tavor uses. The bbl is clearly marked "made in israel" and the owner's manual refers to 922(r) compliance, anybody know for sure what's made where? |

Although the mag happens to be US made, I don't see anywhere that it's required to be for 922r compliance. The card that comes with the manual specifically mentions that the flash hider, trigger, hammer, piston,and sear are US made and if you replace them with non-US parts, you may violate 922r. It says nothing about the magazine. Given that they are one of the few manufacturers to go into detail about non-US parts, it sees that if the gun requires a US mag, they would have said so. Besides, there are already 5 compliance parts on the gun. Seems difficult to imagine that it would require 3 more from the mag.

Of course you can use foreign magazines. Who will know or care? Who cares about 992(r) anyway other than manufacturers and gun store/website commandos? Please site case law with any rebuttals.

IMHO, with the amount of quality US mags available that are by and large better than anything you'd find overseas, why would you use a non US mag anyway?

The agent was bitching about the paperwork involved, but that the AUSA pushed for it.

Not sure if this video gives much insight to your specific question but Tim Harmsen from Military Arms Channel just visited IWI in Harrisburg and went on a tour.
ETA: future shipments of Tavors will be with Windowed Pmags instead of the IWI branded ones

Good news in that! Webstore should be up next week. That's a lot narrower a timeline than "coming soon." Spare parts will be great.

Michael Kassnar himself (VP of IWI US) verified that a US mag is needed for 922r compliance. See here: https://bullpupforum.com/index.php?topic=2518.msg20573#msg20573 |

Are people really this worried about 922r? Lol. I can see a manufacturer worrying, but I hope people aren't really worried about if they put a foreign made magazine into their gun...

Thanks for sharing the video. IWI US looks outstanding and I wish them well. Extra bonus that they are shipping with Pmags now. I bought my Tavor back in March and I love it. Can't wait to get some spare parts and swag.
