Tavor

[Guest Capt. Thunder]

Www.copesdistributing.net is accepting pre-orders for the tavor.

Somebody find Paletiger13 an let him know.

[Guest ThePunisher]

They have an 18 inch barrel and overall length of 27.75 inches and a 16.5 inch barrel and overall length of 26.25 inches for same price of $1909.00. Which barrel length would everyone choose?
I've been waiting on getting a Steyr Aug3 NATO but they are out and looks like it might be sometime in January before they get them in, and they go for $2350.00. Which of the two rifles would everyone consider purchasing? Any input appreciated.

The Tavor takes Stanag mags.

[Guest ThePunisher]

I understand that the new Magpul P-mag Gen3 will work in the Tavor. The Steyr Aug3 NATO version uses Stanag mags. The Steyr Aug3 uses the proprietary mags.

I'd be leaning twords another rifle that can use the Pmags personally. They're a known commodity, functional, plentiful, inexpensive, and its probably a safe bet that you may just have one or two laying around .

On the other hand the Aug is a pretty nifty setup as well, but I'm willing to bet their proprietary mags are double the cost of a pmag.

If the new P-mag Gen3 is the solution in the Tavor, then that solves the decision for the Tavor.They cost around $15..25 each. Yeah you're right about the proprietary mags for the Aug 3 as they cost about $45.00 - $50.00 each

[TrickyNicky]

3 to 1 is pretty steep. This decision is looking easier and easier.

[Paletiger13]

No need to alert me. I've been following this very closely. I'm on a list on Bullpup Forum to try and get first grabs at a discounted price. IWI US has their website up and are now on Facebook too.
Any FFL's care to do a transfer when this comes out?

You better send it through D&T so I can see this beast!

Sidestep:

 

Looks like they are also interested in providing us with Uzi's! It looks like it is currently just the Uzi Pro sold in a pistol form. You know, I've never really been interested in SBR's, but to take an Uzi Pro and turn it into a SBR, that would be great!

An Uzi would be pretty cool, I was looking at parts kits last night.

Do you work there?

[Smith]

Do you work there?

Yeah, I used to be "Smith" here.

[Paletiger13]

Yeah I may have it transferred to you guys if everything works out.

[Daniel]

Yeah, I used to be "Smith" here.

I did not know that.

[Smith]

I did not know that.

Yeah, I probably need to change that back. It's caused some confusion. ;)

 

As to the Tavor, this thing is going to be a BIG hit. I just hope it brings the AUG's price down.

[Paletiger13]

AUG? What's an AUG? ;)

AUG? What's an AUG? ;)

Its the original BULLPUP design that the Tavor made arguably perfected. Nostalgia!

[Guest ThePunisher]

I put my pre-order in for the Tavor today at Copes Disributing and will FFL through D&T. Will have to wait until at least March for the Tavors to come in. Can't wait. Edited December 12, 2012 by ThePunisher

Smith, that was sarcasm lol

[Chris]

I love my Aug. Great rifle... that being said, I can't wait for the Tavor... looks like it is a really nice evolution of the design.

[Smith]

Smith, that was sarcasm lol

So was mine! :rofl:

[Paletiger13]

Aren't we a sarcastic bunch lol
