Ok, I'll give a kidney and my first born to whomever who buys me one... sweet jesus.
Lets hope they get this worked out before they ban all semi-auto rifles.
For now, I am happy I have my bullpup wants covered for now.
uhhhh I want.
I'll take two please.
that does look pretty sweet
[Love4]
"100% AMBIDEXTROUS" holy crap! ok you have my attention
FDE Fuck NO. I've passed on cheap AR's due to that #%^& color. More for U guyz
I want one so very much...
I "preordered" the 16.5 flattop in black from Copes. Apparently at this stage you don't give your CC info but instead chose check/MO and then one of the copes people will contact you to get your FFL dealer info and CC info. They want the Cc info on file but say they won't charge it until the weapon ships. From the giant 115 page thread on arfcom ( http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_6_43/28....html&page=108 my apologies if linking is a no no), CDaly is hoping to ship to distributors by end of March.
I think as of a few days ago, someone in that thread was #80 in line for the black 16.5 flattop. I only preordered this morning and have not been contacted by anyone which is not surprising. Also, I'm all about OD Green but not too fond of FDE either. And I'm hoping like crazy that some stupid new AWB doesn't torpedo CDaly's ass right out of the water.
I am interested but I would really prefer the built in optic model. I am going to have to see when those go up for pre-sale.
That is awesome. I want it
What "built-in optic" do you mean? They all come with the flip up backup iron sights, just the long rail versions have them underneath (so I guess they're inaccessible as long as you have the rail on? At least they're included if you change your mind about the huge rail!). The "IDF" version comes with a Meprolight reflex sight that is attached to a flush fit short rail, and that's how you can see the front flip up sight unobstructed. The IDF version is preselling for the $2,390 or whatever. Errr they were, I just looked on the website and there are no Tavors anymore. Hopefully I got in on time... Nobody has contacted me yet : (
From the arfcom thread, someone posted yesterday that he talked with the lady at Copes and she says that the preorders for black 16" flat-tops are set to ship early March (this definitely sounds plausible, as from some of the videos at Shot Show 2013 with the IMI guy, he said that they were "in production"). I am pumped!!
Thanks for the update.
I got to handle these at SHOT this year and was very impressed. The flatt top version has flip up sights built into the rail, not under it and when people say the IDF has a "built in" optic it's because the mepro site it attached to the barrel while the other versions attach to the rail. Basically the flat top versions are easier to customize and the IDF is closer to what the Israelis are issued.
Good thing you pre-ordered, the demand is getting crazy already. The version you ordered (black 16.5 flat tops) will be the first ones released from what I was told, followed by the other versions very soon after. When I got to handle them the balance was great, controls were well thought out, and I was surprised how small they are (shorter than my 11.5 inch SBR AR15). You're going to love it. Can't wait to get mine as well!
Can someone clarify whether tavor will be in .223 or 5.56? I have read both on different sites. Not a big deal, but I only stock up on m855, so I prefer 5.56.

From the horse's mouth, all 5.56 nato!
damn i want one... anyone want to sell me their preorder?
If anyone wants one I suggest calling Melissa at Copes Disrtibuting and getting on their cancellation/wait list. Better than nothing right now and you'll be in line for the next orders they take.
Will do thx for the tip
From IWI's Facebook: Tavors lined up for testing
Why oh why did this gun have to come out now, the worst possible time :( I would like to get one of these bad boys, looks like the best bullpup to date. Maybe I can get one some day but who knows. Anybody else lusting over one?

I want one as well
Our good friend Chunky Monkey posted info on this...

I want one so damn bad!
Ohh, I missed that one. Thanks, I just saw the MAC video and started drooling.
I want a TAVOR!
Put me down for one. Damn that's cool.
Ill take 2 please
I have had mine on pre-order for a while now. Just waiting not so patiently for it to come out.
Not at all. We spent our money on tax stamps, What's in Your Wallet;)
If someone's buying, I'll take one! HA. It sure is pretty.
I got to play with a couple of them at the Shot Show. Everyone had the table display one's in their hands already, but no one was touching the one on the wall. I even had time to snap a couple pictures before picking it up.

This was not my favorite bullpup though...
This one was more comfortable to me. Everything was also ambidextrous.

Never understood the appeal of bullpups... it's moving the grip forward, not reducing the OAL.
Great review. Thanks for posting. Now I really want one. Seems like a great, ergonomic design. The only thing I don't like is the built-in BUIS; they seem a little gimmicky. Since it has a full rail though, that's easily remedied if they don't work out. Really awesome that it'll reliably use the wide variety of grandfathered high-capacity baby-killing assault clips I own.
Spyder, what is that second one you posted?
