    1-6x scope vs 3-18x scope for SCAR 17S

    I've recently added a SCAR 17S to my collection. My use is target shooting and deer hunting. I shoot paper and steel silhouette targets between 100 to 600 yards. I live in North Georgia, so trees and thick vegetation limit my hunting range to 25 to 100 yards. I shoot from many positions...

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    The factory trigger isn't that bad. After reading all the errornet reports of how heavy and awful it's suppose to be, I was surprised by how light and crisp the trigger was when I handled a Tavor at my local gun shop. The factory trigger in my Colt LE6920 is worst than the factory trigger in the...

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    IWI isn't trying to compete with the AR market because the AR is a conventional rifle and the Tavor is a bullpup. IWI is competing with the FS2000, AUG, and other bullpups. Comparing the Tavor, or any bullpup, to an AR is just plain silly. No AR can match a bullpup for short overall length...

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    Shoot a Tavor before you complain about the weight. A 10 pound Tavor feels lighter and easier to shoulder for long periods of time than a 8 pound AR-15. The weight bias of the Tavor is towards the rear whereas the weight bias of the AR is towards the front. ARs are very frequently nose heavy...

    Heckler & Koch P7M13 Review

    It's one of the coolest looking guns ever made. I don't know what it is about it, but I like the way it looks. It's up there with the Luger P08 and Walther PPK in the looks department.

    Is transitioning between a bullpup and a conventional rifle problematic?

    I'm considering either a FNH SCAR 16S or IWI Tavor SAR to go along with an FNH SCAR 17S. The SCAR is a conventional rifle whereas the Tavor is a bullpup. The SCAR 17S will be used as a 600 meter rifle with a conventional scope. The SCAR 16S or Tavor will be a defensive close range rifle with an...

    Is the Apex DCAEK and RAM for the M&P worth it?

    Is the Apex Duty/Carry Action Enhancement Kit (DCAEK) and Reset Assist Mechanism (RAM) worth it? I'm considering these upgrades for a 2013 M&P. How much of an improvement over the stock trigger can I expect?

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    In addition to what briansmithwins wrote, the Tavor can also be shot both left and right handed and use Magpul Pmags. The AUG cannot be shot both left and right handed. The FS2000 cannot use Magpul Pmags without modifing the rifle (and voiding the warranty.) Geissele is in development of a...

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    Compare the price of the Tavor to an SBR AR-15. No NFA paperwork is required with a Tavor and the barrel is 16.5" rather than 10".

    Don't care about AR's?

    What do you mean by "AR"? There is so many configurations and manufacturers that it's pretty silly to poo-poo the AR because you didn't like one configuration or one manufacturer.

    Are you planning on buying or have you bought an IWI Tavor?

    I'm personally excited about the IWI Tavor and I plan to buy one before December of this year. It's the first bullpup that I've shot that I truly enjoyed shooting. The main selling points for me is that I can shoot it both right and left handed (without brass hitting me in the face when firing...

    Why doesn't anyone make a semiautomatic Sturmgewehr 44?

    Why doesn't anyone make a semiautomatic Sturmgewehr 44? The important historical value of this rifle in the evolution of military small arms is undeniable. Is it the ammo it fires, which is difficult to buy in the US? Is it the Nazi connection? I would like to own one that isn't a .22 Long...

    Geissele trigger in development for the IWI Tavor

    I'm a really big fan of the Tavor. It will become my go to rifle platform after I become proficient with it. I can use the Tavor both strong and weak handed without brass ejecting in my face and I can clear malfunctions easily. In comparison, the Steyr AUG ejects brass in my face when fired from...

    Geissele trigger in development for the IWI Tavor

    For those of you who are looking forward to a Geissele trigger for the IWI Tavor, here is some more information from Stephen McBride: It appears that Geissele and IWI are collaborating on a new trigger, which is very exciting.
