    North sylva please anser this tavor MAGAZINE question.

    Why do you include a 4 round magazine on a $3000 rifle.

    I know I can get 5 rounds in the magazine. But the rifle cannot use it with the spacing.

    I have brought this up before and you have ignored it.

    Please answer.

    This has been a problem for multiple years and nothing has been done to address it!

    The one mine shipped with works fine. 5 rounds loaded and inserts on a closed bolt just fine...

    If you're spending $3000 on a rifle, you have money to buy a $20 magazine.

    Both my Tavor and Colt Canada SA15.7 came with incorrectly pinned magazines (4 rounds max)

    Seems to be a pretty common issue so it's not just North Sylva.

    I find it hard to believe that it's so difficult to correctly pin a magazine.

    In the end it's only a $20 magazine....So it's no big deal.

    That's a BS attitude that because you spent 3k on a rifle you shouldn't get a proper magazine.
    Would you drive away from a dealership in a brand new truck but one of the tires is 1/2 worn out and say "oh well I spent 40k on a truck it's alright I'll just go buy myself a 250$ tire?"

    The amount of money these stupid NR black rifles go for the ought to be perfect in every way.

    I wouldn't go so far as saying its BS. Maybe they're erring on the side of caution, especially that they probably couldn't afford one mistake. The tire analogy is different since it's used/new issue. Pinning mag is different. It's tolerance. But the part is so cheap and readily available so yeah I "get" the complain, but not really "get GET" it.

    What's exactly the point of sending a faulty magazine in the first place?

    It's a complicated tolerance issue. Material flex, workers that do pinning slack etc. If I was a distrubutor that big, I'd hate to get screwed over by selling prohib mags.

    Besides, I'm willing to bet they aren't going to lose any real significant number(almost zero) of people buying Tavors.

    Honest question for everyone: Would you not buy a Tavor because it's mag, which by the way is the most common magazine, is pinned tightly?

    We should have a poll.
