Cool, I hope mine was made the same day, that's the day Hitler died. I've got one on order now just waiting for it to arrive. Does anyone know what ammo it prefers?

Agreed. Mine was just stickered on as well.
Who makes the back up iron sights that came with the rifle? I can find any information anywhere.

Can anyone tell me why some retailers are calling them TAV-21's instead of TAR-21? Is there any reason for this? Thanks guys...

What retailer calls them that? Sounds like an error

Canada Ammo was the only source for a long time. Not sure if they have any left though.
In probably 6-8 months you'll probably be able to get one out of the US though!
Very nice. What break is that? I wasn't considering one until I fired TPP's Tavor, and found it very noticeably improved over stock. Not that Tavor recoil is particularly horrible but there's a definite kick to the right that I'd like to mitigate if possible. Cheers.

Pretty sure thats a Juggerbrake there. I thought I saw an EE listing for them recently?
Ahh thought it looked familiar. Only thing is length -- I'd rather not add any more. I've been looking around at short muzzle brakes and the Spikes Tactical Extreme Short has some good reviews. Don't know what availability is like in Canada.
I liked my muzzle brake until I saw that photo 
Might pick one up!
Very nice. On mine I don't find any noticeable recoil at all, and after about 300 rounds now, the trigger pull is much lighter. A light little squeeze really.

I had a chat with Bill at Geissele Automatics. Drop in trigger kits for the Tavor are being designed right now. His earliest estimate was available in the fall. When I mentioned Canada as a potential market he was happy to hear it. He said Arms East was his distributor here.
I'm one very excited Tavor owner.

Question for TV-PP here is if our trigger pack would swap out with the US designed Geissele trigger pack?
Also orthoboy, did you remove to one un-necessary spring in the trigger pack to lighten the pull weight a few pounds?

You'll find that your trigger gets lighter after a certain break in period. Or that your index finger gets stronger, either way I noticed after a few months shooting the Tavor it felt lighter to me.
Removing the spring also helped.
As for the Geissele trigger: that's hard to say.
I've been told but have never confirmed that the US trigger pack is a different size. I've been trying to buy a US rifle but of course they're hens teeth down there and even rarer up here.
It is highly probable that if the precision trigger pack did not fit our rifles, the enhanced parts and springs could be disassembled if one were ambitious enough and reconstructed inside a Canadian trigger-pack.
