Interesting, I like the x39 cartridge in several rifles, but what is the appeal of that over a 5.56 in a Tavor?
Tavor 7 .308 bullpup moves the needle

You' ll notice that any time development of any rifle is announced, users on this site can't simply appreciate the product as presented. There's always a few posts stating "I'd buy one if they made it in x39/.300 blk/6.5/obscure cartridge" lol

LOL, that is so true,
"I'd buy if it was only made by glock, in "7.346-3/4 x 13.65 Jimmy" because that's the only cartridge everyone should shoot."
btw, I think this will make a excellent rifle for ATV's and moose hunting, it'll be compact to carry on the ATV and dismount, load and take one down.
thats my plan for it.

More reliable and will last longer... utilizes standard sr25 mags. And where are you getting double the price from?
Ammo is half the cost, can hunt with it, etc.
It's your website, so you of all people oughtta know the rules; Pics, or it didn't happen!!!
I also got to fondle one at Taccom today. I was really surprised, it's heavier for sure, but it's not significantly larger than the TAR21. They're pretty close. I was less impressed with the trigger, I'd put it on par with the X95- but then, I think the X95 trigger is pretty good!
The real change is the redesigned action. Anyone whos handled a Tavor knows they are VERY stiff to charge. Racking the charging handle on the Tavor 7 is silky smooth.
IWI had a pretty good booth! Lots of stuff there.

I guess that's regional. You can use a .223 to hunt in BC. And non corrosive x39 isn't much cheaper than .223 these days.
haha yea but corrosive is half the cost, as long as you are willing to clean your rifle same day, which I do anyways so the only thing that changes is adding in windex and a little boiling water.
Regardless, if you are getting a .308 bullpup, its not for cost effectiveness haha. I'm looking forward to seeing some on the range.
Is that the alleged NR barrel in that setup? Any tentative ETA?
That one at the show was a restricted barrel version I believe the lady at the booth said 16" barrel
That picture the paper on the table is blurry, but in my picture it is clear and it says

I deliberately chose Kel Tec RFB. I'm with you on the 7.62x39, I would love to see a bullpup in that.
