Dang. That's a sweet rifle. And I absolutly LOVE the very well thought out and executed improvments from the lesson's learned with the 21 and 95 models. I'd almost kill to get this in a 5.56 version. Sort off an evolved SAR-21.
I picked up the Tavor 5 years ago one of the main reasons for the $2100.00 purchase was based on a future changeable barrel they told me I could buy and switch out to go back and forth from 556 to 308.They never came through instead the made completely different riffle?WTF?
Kyle Rainer Well, mine is an aero precision M5e1 I built. With an adjustable gas block to tune down the gas pressure coming back, the recoil impulse is excellent. I have a SI King Comp on mine as well. Recoil feels similar to a standard AR15, but slower and you can really feel the mass of that .308 bolt traveling back and forth if you shoot it prone. Just imagine recoil similar to the level of a 7.62x39 rifle with the linear travel of an ar15 so it's very straight and controllable. I could shoot it all day with no issues, if I could afford the ammo that is... Without an adjustable gas block and in a light-weight package, they can be a bit of a beast, but still easily manageable with practice and training.
I’m curious if the magazine will fall out or is retained when the release is depressed. If one handed operation was required and if the magazine is caught after being released, I feel like an extra step was added in order to reload. Just a thought. They definitely put a lot of thought into this weapon system.
This is dope! I think I’ll wait this one out and get the X95 300 blackout because I’m sure if I wait till April or May they will sale like hot cakes like the MDR did lol I’ll just call this my 2019 bullpup!
Despite all the hype for the MDR and how awesome that ejection is, this looks more solid, slick, it's backed by a bigger, more competent company that knows how to get good products out fast and at a decent price point. I love the look, the features... just NICE. Sure, the MDR is more modular, and the RFB has more gas settings (some people hate that, others say it's great cause when you know how, you can dial it in and shoot real softly, get no gas face with a suppressor and fully ambi with no switching at all except charging handle, which is almost as easy). But unlike RFB, this is a fully floated barrel, it takes magpul mags, lancers, and those ergos look sweet. It looks like they took everything that people wanted, took the best parts of the x95 and regular Tavor and threw together something really really special. It's getting harder to justify the m1a for that next big project vs this. Same weight, just as reliable a reputation, but the m1a can't be fully floated, not really, this is, shorter, good balance... only a couple hundred more. man... I don't know what to do!
ravissary79 ive thought about the mdr too. I have coworkers that actually deal with DT as they are in my city, SLC, UT. I love the design of the mdr but lord with a price tag of like $8-10K that's never going to happen.
The fact that it comes fully ambi out of the box has my interest. As a lefty, I didn't have much interest in the SAR or X95 since I'd have to purchase a conversion kit in addition to the rifle.
Yea, I considered a lefty model, but I'm the only lefty in my family. Wife and kids are right handed shooters. Either way, I'd have to buy a conversion kit. IWI did great to cater to us dirty southpaws with the Tavor 7.
I like the changes they made to the basic tavor design. I would buy another tavor SAR if they put these changes into it as well as a barrel with a great twist rate for 55 grain ammo that is what I use 99.9% of the time I am at the range (specifically xm 193).
It might just be me but if I had a 10 in one 18 inch barrel with 2” on that stock and a butt pad it would be a better but heaver rifle. I really want one!
I really want one.of these but the hardest hurdle to get over is the trigger pull off 5lbs to 6lbs would make it terrible for a long distance Rifle. And .308 would be the wrong too for home defense when I live in a condo.
Jay Carrera as a Brit looking to join the army I agree but we have spent so much on getting the L85 working to a point where it is good that it doesn't make an economic sense to change
Since it's not extravagant in accuracy, I think this would be a great option for CQC as it's originally designed for. Easily drop anyone with 7.62 NATO up close.
Silver Dino that gun is not meant to be shot at 50 yards 😂😂😂... its meant to be shot at 20 yards and closer. For that purpose no other civilian gun can match it.
El Pingu a rifle that’s meant to be shot only at 20 yds and under...that might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. No civilian gun can match it? Any AR pistol with a brace does everything the reformation does, plus you can shoot them accurately without special ammo. You drank the kool aid.
He did a great job presenting it. One of the best ive seen on camera this shot show. Thanks Larry!
Tom is top notch. I took a course from IWI and he is one of the most professional instructors you can find.
"Another Tavor? I thought the X-95 was the new deal. What the hell-"
*".308"*
"...Go on..."
This looks hot. Can't wait to see it in action here in the future Larry!
Things like this which makes me want to visit the US to play with firearms .. You are very lucky to be legally allowed to have firearms in your country. God Bless America
Amen
2022 and the Anti-American Demonrat Communist Party is declaring war against Freedom and Liberty and Patriot Americans. You still coming?
Freedom is earned
Awesome demo, probably the best I’ve see so far from the shot coverage.
Larry God bless you, always bringing us some of the coolest new toys.
Got the X95 loved it. Craved a .308 so I got a Scar 17. Now i know what to add to the collection.😍
Love the Tavor.
*FINALLY, THE TAVOR 7 IS OUT AND ABOUT...CAN'T WAIT TO SEE AND SHOOT IT!*
Dang. That's a sweet rifle. And I absolutly LOVE the very well thought out and executed improvments from the lesson's learned with the 21 and 95 models. I'd almost kill to get this in a 5.56 version. Sort off an evolved SAR-21.
Looks awesome, love the updates. Would love to see those on the X95 soon as well. Thanks
Looking slim Larry!!
Guilherme Checchia i thought the same
Same here. My guess is he's humble about it. I'm glad he's got viewers like you guys who appreciate his hard work.
Finally we get to hear about the mags it'll use! Thanks Larry!
I love it, I really wish they would make these changes on the 5.56 version.
Great job Larry asking all the right questions.
P.s. why do people think they can get *quality* .308 guns for under 2 grand? You wouldn't be able to afford to shoot it.
Good video Larry. You're looking a bit thinner as well pal so no doubt been hitting the gym hard. As ever thanks for your service.
Thanks
Shit yeah, a 7.62 Tavor! I'm a 7.62 fan and I love shooting AKs and M14s as well as AR-10s. So nice to hear that they're making a 7.62 Tavor now!
Okay, that ejection port swap and the HK-style bolt catch are pretty slick.
Larry you look like you’re slimming down good job.
Dear Larry Vickers, please, you have to make a video shooting and reviewing this beautiful Assault Rifle!
I picked up the Tavor 5 years ago one of the main reasons for the $2100.00 purchase was based on a future changeable barrel they told me I could buy and switch out to go back and forth from 556 to 308.They never came through instead the made completely different riffle?WTF?
Outstanding presentation.
Please make a video of the Beretta ARX-200.
Larry, thank you for making this video happen. It's impressive. Will you be able to do a full review once they're available?
That is the plan for sure
Patiently looking forward to it. Thank you!
Shut up and take my money 😬😎👍🏽
when is the longer barrel coming out
fully ambidextrous rifles are the future! look how slick and easy they made it on the 7
Larry putting in work, keep it up, need to see that six pack while firing an M-60 unsupported lol
Awesome, I am excited for this rifle. I will likely sell my current AR-10 and move into one of these beauties this hear.
TheBamidd how do ARs handle 308?
Kyle Rainer Well, mine is an aero precision M5e1 I built. With an adjustable gas block to tune down the gas pressure coming back, the recoil impulse is excellent. I have a SI King Comp on mine as well. Recoil feels similar to a standard AR15, but slower and you can really feel the mass of that .308 bolt traveling back and forth if you shoot it prone.

I could shoot it all day with no issues, if I could afford the ammo that is... Without an adjustable gas block and in a light-weight package, they can be a bit of a beast, but still easily manageable with practice and training.
Accuracy guaranty?
That will make help my decision between this and the MDR.
What is the trigger like?
Yeah, like the other Tavor, 2 to 3 MOA.
I love how easy it is to go left to right or right to left .
Is anyone gonna talk about the fucking design? What a beauty! Pure fucking power all round
Can’t wait to get my hands on this
What is effective range of this great gun?
I love my RFB 18”. I might add this one to the collection! What was the barrel size?
I want one!! Great Video thanks Larry
I’m curious if the magazine will fall out or is retained when the release is depressed. If one handed operation was required and if the magazine is caught after being released, I feel like an extra step was added in order to reload. Just a thought. They definitely put a lot of thought into this weapon system.
chocolatedumdum2 nobody should ever rely on dropping free unless they're shooting competitively.
Been working on it for years and has a 1:12 twist barrel? Should have 1:10 for U.S. sales. 168g BTHP is killer.
1/12 actually does really well with 168. Believe me.
New upgrades need to be on the x95. Need that locking charging handle feature.
they are using a short stroke gas system which can only mean one thing, more recoil and harsher on parts
This is dope! I think I’ll wait this one out and get the X95 300 blackout because I’m sure if I wait till April or May they will sale like hot cakes like the MDR did lol I’ll just call this my 2019 bullpup!
Whenever a retired Delta Force operator talks about something you listen with intent. Change my mind.
I think there's finally a suitable m4/16 replacement now! Heavy hitting, compact, more range, and almost no recoil
Despite all the hype for the MDR and how awesome that ejection is, this looks more solid, slick, it's backed by a bigger, more competent company that knows how to get good products out fast and at a decent price point. I love the look, the features... just NICE.

man...
I don't know what to do!
ravissary79 ive thought about the mdr too. I have coworkers that actually deal with DT as they are in my city, SLC, UT. I love the design of the mdr but lord with a price tag of like $8-10K that's never going to happen.
Is this going to be 20 MOA after heating up like the X95 was?
I need one of those.
I can't seem to find one anywhere
That looks just beautiful...
It is time for shot show 2019, where is the Tavor 7?
Awesome I have always wanted one now two .
New favorite rifle right there
Looks like this might be my new hunting gun sweet.
The fact that it comes fully ambi out of the box has my interest. As a lefty, I didn't have much interest in the SAR or X95 since I'd have to purchase a conversion kit in addition to the rifle.
hobbez84 you couldve purchased a lefty model but they're harder to come by.
Yea, I considered a lefty model, but I'm the only lefty in my family. Wife and kids are right handed shooters. Either way, I'd have to buy a conversion kit. IWI did great to cater to us dirty southpaws with the Tavor 7.
hobbez84 heh totally get that. I'm more selfish than you however. All you'd need is a lefty bolt!
But is the barrel free floated?
It is not. That was a misquote from our friends overseas
there's a ring connecting the barrel to the upper receiver... like most assault rifles
Anything new from accuracy international?
Is that a 20Rd mag it comes with ?
When can I get mine??!!
Now shipping. Seriously. Shipping this week.
MSRP in video was $2299. It's now $2099 with street under $2000.
This looks exactly like the DMR from halo reach heheh
What kind of optic is on that thing?
I like the changes they made to the basic tavor design. I would buy another tavor SAR if they put these changes into it as well as a barrel with a great twist rate for 55 grain ammo that is what I use 99.9% of the time I am at the range (specifically xm 193).
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it! Lol.
What a gorgeous weapon. For home defense the x95 is likely a better option b/c of the smaller round.
Is there a way to get a barrel @7 to1
It might just be me but if I had a 10 in one 18 inch barrel with 2” on that stock and a butt pad it would be a better but heaver rifle.
I really want one!
What is the name of that optic?
The tar is my favorite ar🔥
Nice, what optic is that?
Shot it PLZ! I had a SAR and loved it! Love the fact I can change it to left in mins! Shot it plz!!!
how much cust one of htis beautifull weapon ?
I really want one.of these but the hardest hurdle to get over is the trigger pull off 5lbs to 6lbs would make it terrible for a long distance Rifle. And .308 would be the wrong too for home defense when I live in a condo.
APRIL!? How about February... March? You guys are killing me!
My main question, which I have yet to see answered, is how does the piston come out of this model?
Yes
I need these two in a buddy cop movie!
Aaahhhh...guns.....my manliness is smiling back again...
Question that was not answered - what is the trigger like?
6 pounds.
Doesn't matter throwing in a Geissele trigger anyway!
This is why i love Israelis they florish in of the most hard places battle trained invinciables and their awesome weapons they are legendary
You know the Canadians want this. Just make sure it has that longer barrel
A Tavor e a Aug são sonhos de consumo
6.5 creedmore, other calibers ?
Very interested. Unless It can’t shoot < 1.25”.
Can you remove the piston for cleaning?
Yes it can be done, all one has to do is turn the gas regulator.
that's so cool 308 tarvo :) gotta move to the usa
Excellent!
This is the gun that should be sold in all calibers. 7.62x39, make it happen, IWI.
The brits who love bullpups should change there main assault rifle to Tavors.
Jay Carrera as a Brit looking to join the army I agree but we have spent so much on getting the L85 working to a point where it is good that it doesn't make an economic sense to change
John Paddock """"good""""
The original L85 was the most god-awful rifle Britain has ever produced. So much so, they outsourced R&D to Heckler and Koch.
They didnt used to love it they hated that gun for years. It took a long time for the L85 to even be decent
the new l85 are great.. no point commenting on the initial variants
Hope it shoots better than the 5.56 version.
Since it's not extravagant in accuracy, I think this would be a great option for CQC as it's originally designed for. Easily drop anyone with 7.62 NATO up close.
Please make a video of the new AK-308 assault rifle .
Semi auto only Negev? That’s what i want to see!
accuracy?
Take a look at the Franklin armory gun with no rifled barrel
Levi Ptacek its a bust , they over hyped it.... shoots 5 moa at 50 yards absolute garbage
Chet Manley the 2000$ musket
Silver Dino that gun is not meant to be shot at 50 yards 😂😂😂... its meant to be shot at 20 yards and closer. For that purpose no other civilian gun can match it.
El Pingu and with it's special magical bullets it can be taken out to 25 meters lol
El Pingu a rifle that’s meant to be shot only at 20 yds and under...that might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. No civilian gun can match it? Any AR pistol with a brace does everything the reformation does, plus you can shoot them accurately without special ammo. You drank the kool aid.
Accuracy?
This beats that MDR from Desert, hands down.
as a lefty shooter - i have never enjoyed shooting more than the x-95 converted. you would be the 3M of guns for lefties! take my money!!!!
IWI Tavor Impressive!
He did a good job explaining it and demonstrated safe weapon handling when moving it around
They need to make this version of the Tavor in 5.56.
Very good design
Holy length of pull Batman!
