Tavor upgrade wishlist...

All I want is a plastic bracket that will clip into the goofy dovetail mount behind the rear sight, and a solid linkage between the trigger and the sear that doesn't rub on the body, but there's not enough room for the linkage. Too bad one of these wouldn't fit :( ...it would do the trick.

these guys make spectacularly tough linkages for my rc cars, could allways try them to see if they would make a cusom turnbuckle for you, their 3mm thick ones will withstand a good beating

Just put it in a box and send it to me. I'll fix that trigger right up for you. ;)

You give so much of yourself, yet ask for so little in return. I'm all misty-eyed typing this... :D

That is an interesting perspective. Having taken the barrel out and looked at the trigger setup its plainly obvious, Its like the trigger bar in a glock in that gets overlooked with their 6 drop rule, but if you lube where that flat bar rides along the outside of the frame, the trigger becomes 10X better and really cuts back on creep. In a Tavor the plastic trigger pivots on a thin flexible piece of steel that slides into a tiny groove down one side of the rifle in order slide beside the action, instead of under it like in a normal firearm... Wholly Friction Batman. Especially when its all new. I put a small nylon o-ring on the outside most part where of the trigger where it goes thru the flat connecting bar just to hold the metal away from the side of the gun when the trigger is being pulled (less friction), that seemed to make quite a difference, but the channel it runs thru can trap dirt and is hard to clean and/or lube especially when you figure oil will trap dirt making it worse. Last time I cleaned it out really good and just put a squirt of remoil down the channel and lubed all the pivots with a drop of break free.

Does it still have a crappy trigger? Yep, you bet; but what did you expect from something with so many extra parts? The trigger on an AR is a direct link to the mechanism. The trigger on a Tavor is a link, to link, to a 12" long piece of sheet metal pushing along a piece of plastic,that pivots a part that activates the trigger group. Aim, hold and Pull quickly.

Reading your post gave me hope....up 'till the end LOL.
Do you have any pics of this O-ring you installed? Did it help at all with the creep?

As well, can anyone post pics of the trigger system on this rifle?
 
Hopefully someone makes a small rail to lock onto that rear mount - maybe poly to match the frame of the carbine... and while they're at it, maybe mill up a small single point sling attachment for the rear location of the stock/receiver... I don't feel like chomping another one out of delrin...
 
Look for a company called MAKO for the magnifer. As they ship from Isreal. If you still want to go through the US it will be expensive but you will need to order from Witmer Public Safety Group.
Your welcome :p

Its not so much an O ring as a polymer washer(flat with a hole in the middle). I was taking the dlask rail off and putting the factory one back on and got the idea. I actually took a picture, then tore it all apart, then realized I could have easily slid it in there without pulling the trigger out. It took forever to get the trigger back in because there's a preloaded spring and it all as to line up on reassembly, so I strongly STRONGLY recommend nobody take the actual trigger group out without having allot of patience and a picture of how the return spring goes first...Ill see if I can find that picture . Really I think the best thing for the trigger creep is taking it out and shooting it, or even dryfiring it. I think it just has to be broken in (and lubed)
 
LOL. I just know my gf is gonna be pissed at me for the next week or so. Dry-firing my pistols while watching tv is one thing, but hearing me pull back the charging handle on a rifle and dry-firing every 20 seconds will definitely push her over the edge.

I'll report back with the results. Assuming I'm still alive, of course :p
