Tavor Optic Choices

[transumer]

For target use... what are most Tavor users choosing. I find most optics are based on AR co-witness heights but are to low for Tavor.

I really liked the elcan specter 1-4 when I had mine. If I had to choose today, I’d use my Nightforce NX8 1-8 or some other kind of well made LPVO

Meprolight?

 

[Bartok5]

MEPROLIGHT M21 with an Aimpoint 3x Magnifier in a Larue Mount. An Elcan Spectre DR or OS4x would be my next choice. Far better optics with the Elcans, but the Mepro is the authentic Israeli set-up so that's what I currently go with.

Transumer a couple of things to help you think this out.
What is your vision like?
What budget are you willing to use?
You say target shooting, to what ranges and what expected accuracy?

Metro m5 is what I use. I like it

is that a 18.5" barrel?? Reason I ask is that the handguard seems shorter than mine.... might be the angle, thicker business end, etc though. I also want to do the black IWI grip with FDE guard.

since the Tavor is a minute of barn rifle. Aimpoint or MRO works just fine.

I thought SKSes were 'minute of barn'. The tavor should be 'minute of shed' at least

I use an Elcan Spectre DR 1.5-6X on mine and get minute of coyote!

I had an elcan 1x/4x... great optics, but a bit on the heavy side... but man, great optics.

I use a eotech on mine. Hits steel gongs at 250m all day long, and minute of coyote

MARS?

Or Elcan?

It’s hard to find a comfortable optic for the Tavor. The cheek weld really sucks on it so you need something with a huge eyebox. I tried a Viper 1-4 and that sucked. I now have a ACOG and am very happy about it. I did get a chance to shoot a Tavor with a Elcan 1-4 and it was awesome.

As mentioned above they aren’t exactly tack drivers so a red dot would probably do just fine.

this works for me pretty good

Has anyone actually seen one of the MH-1 sights?

Ive used them but haven't seen them on shelves in Canada.
they are available Via CAA, same company that sells the RONI. not sure who brings that into Canada.
perhaps north sylva?

The Elcan's are a great option and I would not rule out the new TS-6X and TS-8X from US Optics

Thanks all for the advice. I have a sig Romeo 5 and spent an hour at a indoor range (25yrd). Actually it didn’t feel low. I like the lighter weight of this optic.

At the local store I mounted and eotech exps onto an x95 and it fits well other than the massive optic on top. I was looking at the mepro mor but wonder if the price is worth it for 7+ year old optic technology.
