Tavor show and tell

[xxkornxx56]

I recently purchased a Tavor and haven't seen many folks sharing pictures and how they have their rifles set up. So, how about we start now. Right now I'm running a vortex sparc with a co witness mount. I plan on changing over to a vortex spitfire if/when I can get my hands on one to inspect it or read multiple good reviews. Also a lantac dragon is on it's way and should be here in a few days. Eventually I'm going to add a light onto it but I haven't decided if I will be going with an aftermarket fore end to accept a light or just go with a light mounted on the side rail.

My son shooting my first Tavor with an Eotech. It got sold and I missed it so I bought another. It will end up with an Eotech on it also. I'm not sure about a light for it.

Midwest industries and another company( I think manticore arms) make a fore end in which a light is installed inside it protruding out the front. It is nice but the price tag is a little high. For now I think I will order a surefire with a pressure switch.

This is mine as it sits right now. I have a Surefire light to fit inside the Midwest Industries handguard pictured here, but it's not mounted in this photo. I'm waiting to exchange this handguard for their extended version (shown below) which will allow for a better fit of the light flush inside the handguard.

This is the longer handguard I will exchange mine for.

Awesome guns. I sure do like the way they look.

I'm just waiting for more options and better prices. I just put an eotech on mine so far. I might look into a magnifier next since my vision sucks. Maybe I should go to the eye doctor and get a new prescription since I'm overdue.

Until you try shooting them and reloading them prone.

Until you try shooting them and reloading them prone.

Maybe you're trying to get to 50 so you can sell your POS Tavor?


Here's a YouTube video of the Tavor (suppressed) being fired from prone... What's the issue?

I've shot and reloaded mine prone many times. Didn't seem like a big deal to me, and I'm not that bright

It can't be done! Just like doing a quick reload or shooting past 50 yards with the Tavor is impossible.

That looks awesome!!! Now I want one even more!!

Cowboy, did you do the paint job? Looks great

 

[firefighter4884]

Can I ask why you installed the magpul sites? My Tavor came with back-up irons integrated into the rail...

Just curious.

Yes, I did the paint. It's air-brushed duracoat with mixtures of tactical light gray, tactical extreme gray, and tactical black and digital camo stencils layered on in four colors.

They aren't Magpul, they're Fab Defense and the reason I put them on is the integrated sights in the rail, while nice, seem like they would be easy to bend or break if raised and the rifle is dropped. Maybe not an issue but I was buying a set of the Fabs for my GII Recon and decided to grab some for the Tavor while I was ordering.

IMHO, the standard flip ups suck. Sure, it's nice that they're there and included and everything, but have you used them? They're not exactly Troy/KAC/LWRC competitors.

I don't hate them but when flipped up they're a lot like sights mounted on top of metal toothpicks. More than likely they would be ok under normal circumstances but for a backup I want something that's a little more sturdy even if it's just in my head.
