Firearm BS thread

Yessir. The Tavor is a solid platform and there's much to like about it to include the ability to accept standard AR15 magazines (Pmags!) all the way to years of being battle proven by the IDF (Israeli Special Forced) in various theaters of conflict. All that being said it is a bullpup and the one flaw of pretty much every bullpup is the trigger. You can't have a foot of linkage and not expect the perfect clean break and light crisp feel of a direct connected fire control group and this Tavor is no exception. The pull is nearly 10lbs eek and it's not a light crisp 10lbs either. You wouldn't want to use it for precision work or to hammer fire thousands of rounds over a weekend class because your trigger finger will look like Arnold Schwarzenegger's upper arm by the end if it survives. That being said it's a unique, purpose-built platform and I do enjoy them. That top rifle in the picture is a suppressed 300 Blackout upper in 9" and the rifle overall is still longer than the Tavor sporting a 16" barrel. The Tavor balances much better too especially when suppressed. Here's a few more of my Tavors if you dig them:

 

Go to S.H.O.T. Show.

 

If i could i would, it looks like a blast.

I got a email back from federal and they send them out as people request them.

 

Buy stuff. Most vendors include stickers when you purchase. LaRue even throws in other goodies depending on what you order. Dillo's, Dillo Dust, all sorts of fun shite.

 

I'm to cheap, i do like the BCM stickers i got with my stock kit.

 

BCM is another good one.

 

yeah, my truck is a farm truck for now so it's not a big deal for me, but this fall i'll be going to college but i'm not to worried, only one semester will be in CA, the rest will be in Mississippi.

I'm sure it's going to be. I haven't actually shot it yet, I'm scared

 

Word to the wise, if you plan to keep this in a front pocket and do anything physical or sweat make sure you take it out at the end of the day and wipe the slide with an oiled cloth daily. I had my slide rust up with the quickness. I plan to Cerakote it anyway so not a huge deal but just a heads up in case you don't want yours rusting up on you.

 

The old hard chrome model is perfect, I have never had any issues with rusting. Not sure why but they decided to discontinue it

 

Yeah, I plan to Cerakote my slide Tungsten which should look pretty kewl. Here's mine pre-rust:

 

everywhere in the state is sold out of .223/5.56

checked every gun store on oahu, every store on the big island...

But then this new shop opens up
And I see .223 on the shelf!

Does that grip add on (Hogue?) ever slip down and prevent the mag from fully seating? It seems like a good fit, I have one on another pistol but not sure yet on the LCP

 

Never had a problem with it, no.

 

Yeah, it's a fairly formidable little firearm.

When they first came out a buddy and I were testing it out on paper targets stapled to cardboard backers on frames from varying distances of 15'+ and after a few rounds we noticed some flies had gathered on the cardboard. This little gun did quite well I might say and here's the proof.

Spider (shot #1). As you can see the first shot was a miss but I guess it didn't phase him much because he stuck around for the 2nd shot which was a kill shot.


Fly #1 (Shot #2). An insect of a different sort found his way onto the cardboard a few seconds later and was dispatched in the same manner. Had the aim down on this one and hit it with the first shot.


Fly #2 (shot #3). His friend showed up to see what all the hullabaloo was about. All shots took place within about 2min of each other.


Not to bad with a pocket gun with shitty but functional sights.

 

Mine has never slipped ether. But if it does start to interfere with the mag you can just trim a bit off of it.
