So, the IMI Tavor is coming. Who is interested?

Couldn't you get one of these in the US anyways, just like you would a DSR-1? Buy it across the Canadian border and do an obscene amount of paperwork. If anybody knows how much these go for in Canada, you're my new best friend. But following the pattern of these other uncommon modern rifles (SCAR, ACR, FS2000) I expect the price point to be ~$2200 or higher..

If you are interested in the DSR-1, you can buy a quick-caliber change precision bullpup from a company where the owner, who owns one of the few DSRs floating around, designed an improved US-made version for half the price. Desert Tactical Arms puts out a fantastic product. Check out the precision rifle forums for praises from owners.

For those attending the NRA Show in St. Louis, MO, April 13-15, the Tavor SA will be on display in the Navy Arms booth #2304. Val Forgett of Navy Arms has been kind enough to allow us to share his booth space. Stop by and see us if you get the chance!

Any word on pricing? There were rumors floating around that it was going to be near the $3k mark.

I'd buy one if it were $1800 or less. That's how much I paid for my FS2000 and I still consider that a reasonable price.

If you have some cover that requires you to shoot left handed you ain't going to do that with a Tavor.

I can't say if they work with the travor but with an AUG for example one can make use of a few different techniques to fire it left handed.

Also the following video seems to suggest that if one really needs to just rapidly switch shoulders and fire with a right hand eject pullpup they can and it wont be the end of the world.

We hope to establish a MSRP of $1,999 or less but it hasn't been finalized yet.

I would be interested in one as I have always had a certain fascination with bull-pup designs. Would definitely be interested in one if the price point can be kept under $2K.

I'd be in for sure. Would sell my Stag 3GL to pay for it.
