I was stunned to see for myself how much more rapidly some of the new lightweight composit rifles could be brought to bare on a target compared to the m16. It seems a no brainer.My special forces buddys have often described trading gear/ water just to carry a few more rounds. How about a lighter, more reliable rife?

I have a 14.5 inch m4 with a small trj red dot that i pass around friends shooting 8 inch steel plate at measured 300 yard swinging plate„„everyone that has shot it makes long strings of hits with a min of practice!!!NOT a big deal with modern firearms.The tavor is a very nice rifle,take your pick„and the izzys are slowly gonna get tavors„about a few thou a year„there not slaming or dumping the m4,they like it

“Take the British L85(SA80) although beset with problems in the beginning, since the upgrade programme at the beginning of the decade, the SA80 has proven to be one of the most reliable and accurate assault rifles in the world, With an effective range of around 500m and an accurate range of around 400m.“
Beter check that bud the latest of this rufle is the tests were rigged by the company and the SA80 still sucks.
Give me a rifle that is accurate and reliable or just say M14 or AR18. Smonehing in 6.5 Grendel would be nice too!

I like how the one guy gave a lot of credit to Stoner and his design. But gosh I just dont see how this weapon is any better than an M-4 id take an M-4 or Z-M 300 (heavily modified M-4) over any other weapon out there.

Why does everyone think the m4 suks. If you acually read the reports of the people actually using it you would find better comments than crappy. People complain that it dosen’t have a big enough calliber or that it is not accurate enough. People the army has been doing things a lot longer than most of you and I think they are doing a fine job.

I am a Vietnam Infantry Officer and retired police officer„,the M-16 even in its latest form is too long in the tooth. It needs a good replacement, the Tavor looks like a very good candidate.

Well at least we know that their government isn’t as boorish as ours when it comes to getting a superior weapon.
