I can't find the post because the search is limited to 30 days, but I think the situation was that Barrett was going to manufacture the Tavor so that Israel could use US aid money to buy them (US aid often comes with strings like "buy American" attached).  Importing the Tavor would probably run afoul of the semi-auto import ban.  A US-civillian-friendly prototype made the Shot Show last year, but I have not heard anything since. There's no mention of the Tavor on the Barrett web site.
