IWI Launches the 7.62X51mm TAVOR 7 AR

[gadget]

Will the X95 have a 308kit? That would be interesting.

Not possible based on the receiver size etc

Not to mention the 7 is basically an x95 ergonomically.

Very interested to see these hit our shores.

Respectfully disagree. The F2000 IA is to lock the action to the rear and remove the magazine. Then reinsert the mag and gtg.

Tap rack is the same.

Only difference is you can't see the obstruction as easily.

I used to run FS2000 - I ditched it because the 3rd IA is to find a hole, hide, sit down and pull the receiver out .

I am not a big fan of the old bushmaster M17. Sticking one's face on an aluminum extrusion tube and push button safety is no go in my book.

RFB is like FN2000. If it doesn't work, the gun is down and there is no IA. It needs to be field stripped. That is not a good go even for hunting.

It pretty much down to TAVOR 7 and MDR. MDR has a more unconventional design. We know the TAVOr trigger group will perform in adverse places. TAVOr also has a much more proven conventional bolt and bolt carrier design. MDR has some interesting things going on, especially with the bolt, and it is using a low mass carrier that seems to be contrary to the trend these days, other than MCX. I will say MDR is a more risky design and there is no track record of something similar.

The Austrians were light years ahead (developed in the 60’s) with their AUG, put these current possers to shame Too bad about it’s classification would love an A1 and A3, various barrel configurations etc, 30 and 42 shot mags......yum yum.

Nice. Looks very controllable on full auto bursts. Sigh.

I'd buy one just for the crisp trigger

K&M is more of a ‘custom gun’ quality than a ‘hobby gun’ of the Kel Tec variety.

Nice crisp Elftman trigger in it. ~3-4 lb pull.

I’ve owned a Tavor and the K&M . K&M hands down. To be fair, clearly I’ve never handled either in 7.62.

Release date in the US is April, and the RCMP lab inspection process have consistently been 18 months long, so you are looking at late spring 2020 at the earliest.
