The design of the IWI Tavor 7 bullpup battle rifle is perfect for not only long range combat, but it's also great for close quarter combat, medium range combat, breach and clear situations, and reliable to use during vehicle rides.

[@henrywal]

I want/wanted one but didn't iwi discontinue the tavor 7. It was my dream gun second to the hk417. Bullpups are the future like you mentioned

[@DTreatz]

Just the nature of bullpups.

[@hogfry]

I use mine for hog hunting. .308 is great for hunting in brush and obstructed terrain like scrub or forest cause its got enough mass not to deflect from small branches and twigs and its more than enough bullet for virtually any big game. The recoil impulse is mostly vertical and its light for a .308 rifle I do recommend the after market rubber but pad tho. The factory flat stock has all the padding of a public bus seat and doesn't really set into your shoulder if you have any muscle mass. Because its a bull pup its really easy to carry over long hikes, easy to snap aim, and good for making follow up shots (which is a thing with hogs they're tough little bacon flavored environmental disasters). Its no sniper rifle but for hunting up to 500`ish meters its been accurate enough. (I mostly hunt in the brush on the Oregon coast and Washington mountains so I haven't had any real opportunities to take it out past 600m so I don't know how it) The accessories are varied and great. I run the Hammerhead furniture from Manticore arms on mine It adds a little more weight over the barrel to help with the recoil. With the new trigger guard hand grip from Rx Arms and the fab defense integrated bi-pod). I've run a mountain of brass thru this thing and I've never had a jam. Its also DEAD simple to clean as the bulk of the assemble slides out the butt of the gun for maintenance. I don't usually run a solvent trap on mine but its fully set up for one (complete with a piston setting for running it suppressed) and the few times I HAVE used one... I haven't experienced any problems with it. The only real complaints I have about the gun is: The rear screw that holds the factory butt plate onto the gun is glued together with 53 gallons of blue loc tite and requires absurd work to break free (This doesn't effect maintenance thankfully, the plate hinges out of the way). It made putting the after market plate on it a chore. The Right hand mag release seems a bit under built. The pin in mine shook loose at around 500 rounds. It was a $65 fix and the gun is fully ambi so I just used the left mag release until i could get it to a guns smith. But its worth mentioning it happened. Over all this is my FAVORITE gun. It replaced my socom 16 as my primary hunting rifle

[@EchoDelta2A]

Very thorough feedback! Definitely puts things into a perspective I know many can relate to!

[@swingnamiss8130]

Was wondering how a .308 Tavor would compare to an AR10/SR25 for hogs, still debating on either a Tavor 7 with an MPVO or an Aero M5 for a deer/pig gun.

[@hogfry]

@@swingnamiss8130 I think it really depends on your use case. The Tavor excels for me as a brush gun. It's compact and easy to take on a hike with lots of elevation changes. If your hunting at longer ranges or on flat ground maybe an AR10 will serve you better.

Love my Tavor heavy and X95, especially living in a state where SBR's are a no-no. Like you said, all the weight just sits back on your body, but feels balanced not heavy. Recoil is also minor. All my friends that have fired it, wanted one afterwards.

Yea, I love my X95. I think it's got a bit better rail design than the older Tavor 7, but I still want a 7 just to have something in .308. Specifically what I mean is I love the side rails on the X95 that also let me run an Olight Odin without a need for zipties to hold on the remote switch

[@no-hg4xi]

I've had a Tavor 7 for a few years, and it has pros and cons for sure. I do find the noise/shock-wave/recoil to be a smidge jarring. It's difficult to shoot in the prone. Front rail space can be somewhat limited. I've also not found a round to be able to best a 3 MOA group. That becomes troublesome when you get north of 400 to 500 yards. The pros though....super compact, super reliable, amazing ergonomics for upright firing drills. Same with the X95. I adore my x95 as the similar accuracy is less concerning with 5.56 being a shorter range cartridge. The recoil is super smooth and less concussive. It's a bit gassy, so on a hot stagnant day you may get some watery eyes...but its so worth it. The Tavor 7 also has an adjustable gas system, unlike the X95 so it can be suppressed easily without damage to the internals. I also recommend running 20 round pmags in it to aid with prone shooting. Total score for the Tavor 7....8/10.

I may end up owning both. There will always be pros and cons to everything, bullpups are no different.

Awesome rifle! I had the opportunity to shoot from an Austrian AUG rifle (also a Bullpup). Amazing ergonomics, weight distribution, accurately hits even one-handed. The Tavor 7 has a fantastic design and the .308 caliber is far superior to .277!

[@Cognosapien]

Great overview. Looking at full power rifle cartridges, it really helps to have a longer barrel to get the most out of the powder. The bullpup really makes efficient use of space for that longer barrel. I heard that the Tavor 7 has a gas setting where it cuts off all the gas and doesn't cycle the action automatically at all. Do you think this would make it more accurate for precision longer range shots?

[@EchoDelta2A]

Essentially, it turns it into a single shot or bolt action type of precision rifle. That said, the barrels on these have their limits when it comes to precision. Definitely built more for durability abd sustainability when heated after several shots fired in a short time.

Honestly, wouldn't know anything about how it shoots suppressed, as I'm an Illinois resident that's deprived of such awesome things 😁. That said, regularly firing this thing is no different than any 308 I've ever shot as far as recoil. Not bad at all. The lantac dragon helps immensely too. Forgot to mention it in the video.

​@NukeMachinist ...what? Maybe if it's a shorty .458 socom. 5.56 isn't close to 7.62x51 in recoil. I own both.

[@SubBubz]

It's really not that bad. I shot mine suppressed last week, and like a numbskull forgot to put it on the suppressed setting. Recoil was more than normal, but still less than my 6.5 bolt gun.

[@well5423]

Your dot and magnifier height seems off. Does it still work OK? What are your thoughts on the magnifier?

[@EchoDelta2A]

It might look like it, but they're perfectly in line. The magnifier comes with a height spacer to accommodate red dots with QD or standard mounts. Thus far, the magnifier has been excellent. I initially had an issue where the 308 recoil would force it to flip because the latch was too loose for a 308's recoil. I put a little loctite on the latch spring and sanded a bit of the latch shelf to give it some grit. It's been working like a charm ever since.

Shooting sight tav7

[@rawpilot84]

Noob question here. I'm a lefty shooter, can the ejection port be moved to the other side, or would the ejection of the shell not even bother a left handed shooter? Thanks.

[@EchoDelta2A]

Yes sir. The ejection port can be swapped to the left side quite easily. Basically, you remove the bolt from the carrier, remove the cam that holds in the firing pin, rotate the bolt to so the ejector is facing the opposite direction, reinsert the firing pin and cam, put the bolt back in the carrier, and you're good there. On the ejection port itself, you pull and rotate the brass deflector, then slide it closed on the right side. You do the same but to open the left port, and you're done. I know that sounds like a lot of steps, but if you watch MAC's video on the Tavor 7, you'll see it only takes a minute to do. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3eam2iYpq2bgrs

How does the length of pull difference between a standard BR affect its shooting and feel ?

[@EchoDelta2A]

The length of pull of any bullpup has always felt natural to me. Not sure if that's how everyone feels but it's a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. That said, the weight distribution is a major difference that benefits the bullpup. Battle rifles tend to be heavier, and the front heavy nature of a traditional rifle makes it harder to carry and maneuver with. Bullpups have most of their weight in the rear and against your chest, which makes it far easier to carry for longer periods and more maneuverable, not to mention shorter and more capable in close quarters as well.

[@ChiquitaSpeaks]

@@EchoDelta2A I think the length pull difference needs to be discussed more as not everybody is a taller longer limbed person

[@videocardzrule354]

The SCAR 17S is just insanely expensive right now. Like CRAZY pricey. It is a shame. But that’s just how it is… If I find the cheapest price ever and use discount codes, I am still gonna fork over like $3,200 for a Scar17S. Where I can go and buy a brand new Tavor 7 for like $1,820. Now take the number “1820” and multiply it like this. (1820 x 1.76) that makes a Scar 17S 76% more expensive than a Tavor 7 😮😮😮

Definitely not worth THAT much more for the SCAR but I get the dilemma

[@ianberry5879]

3k? My local Ace Hardware sells them for under 2k! My hesitation on the Tavor 7 is looking at the design, that cavernous area above the trigger group/in the charging handle area, seems like a mud/dirt/debris trap that would be kind of difficult to clean out.

[@EchoDelta2A]

Lol! Yeah, the gun itself is around $1700. Then, add in the red dot, Magnifier, light, butt pad, etc... Comes out to around $2900. As far as the exposure to dirt, dust, and all - the Israelis made these for desert conditions, so I'd think that it doesn't matter what gets into that particular area.

I wouldn't call it an upgrade. I think the overall quality of the SCAR is hard to beat, but I prefer the bullpup in the overall scheme of things. To me, it's just more practical in more situations. It's really just splitting hairs though. If I had to battle the world with a SCAR, I'd be feeling pretty damn good. If I had the Tavor, I'd be equally stoked.

I might say best bullpup battle rifle but the field is too deep for battle rifles. Even best 308 bullpup battle rifle is contested, i own the 7 but i own the mdrx in 308, its better in my opinion, more accurate, better balance and caliber swappable. I do have to disagree about bullpups in military use, it sucks big time to road march or cover a lot of land while being timed with a bullpup, i did it for the German infantryman badge, i did it also with the famas, it sucked even worse. You are constantly keeping your right arm bent to support the weight while running or marching. The ar/m14 can be slung vertically next to your pack.

I'll never understand the every accassory in the underwear drawer mind set...a .308 auto loader is heavy enough to start with....no need to reduce your front arm carrying capacity with a pistol grip and thumb switches you can't reach..... that said I love my M&P-10, but my Tavor 7 has replaced it as my favorite .308

[@EchoDelta2A]

I feel Bullpups, especially in 308, benefit from a grip or at least a handstop you can brace your hand up against. They're very rear heavy, so muzzle rise is more of an issue than with a conventional rifle. The grip or handstop helps to mitigate some of that. Everything else is usually just for show lol.

[@breckfreeride]

Cheaper than 277 fruity anyway!

[@clintmoore7204]

[@EchoDelta2A]

What's wrong with Olight?

[@clintmoore7204]

Cheap plastic lenses, low CRI emitters, aren't potted, overall just poor build quality and shady marketing schemes aimed towards beginners that don't know any better. It's not political or trend vendetta against them, they're terrible performing lights compared to surefire, cloud, modlite, malkoff and even streamlight.

[@EchoDelta2A]

They definitely don't stack up to Surefire, Cloud, or Modlite for sure. But for the price, I've always considered them decent. That said, you're definitely correct on your points.

Jesus Christ said “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” If you wish to seek God’s heart seek first Jesus Christ, He is the bread of life. He is the living water. No one who drinks from Him will again be thirsty. And no one who eats from Him will go hungry. Let the Lord be your strength and let Him lead you to still waters. Be at peace in Christ, lest you join the devil and his angels in the lake of fire and suffer for eternity. This is the free gift of God. Believe in the one who He has sent!

“Any military that isn’t already adopting them in large numbers is putting their soldiers in a great disadvantage” is an extremely inaccurate statement. Given the fact that compact weapons are often less accurate, this is why US military continues to use the traditional design even when switching to .277 Fury. The other obvious example is Chinese PLA replacing their standard issue Type 95 bullpup rifles with Type 191 which uses a traditional design. Both countries chose to adopt new rifle systems for the increased weapon effective range. However, bullpup rifles can be just as good if not better if a longer barrel is used, which in the end could be as heavy as a carbine rifle with traditional design. Tavor 7 is a great rifle and I own one with a 20” barrel, but as a civilian with less concern of carrying a rifle all day I would pick an AR-10 over a Tavor 7 for better accuracy

[@EchoDelta2A]

Right but point being that a 20" standard format rifle will be front heavy and a bigger burden to carry and manoeuver with in combat where a 20" bullpup would have the profile of a 14" AR and have most the weight in the rear.

[@EchoDelta2A]

Listen, I'm not trying to hype anything. You're arguing that two rifles, with the same caliber and length barrels, likely the same barrels altogether, have different effective ranges. And you're stating the rifle based on an 80 year old design is better. I'd love to know what your reasoning is. In my point of view, you're comparing almost identical rifles built for different purposes.

[@thetest8777]

@EchoDelta2A I own a pof revolution 308 and that has more of a value than any of my iwi guns I own

[@EchoDelta2A]

Whatever floats your boat. POFs are awesome too. Had a review on one of mines as well. Also a SCAR, also an EBR Mk14, also an XCR, also a MDRX. I've owned and shot all of them. Everyone has a different favorite, mine is the Tavor and it's only because I prefer bullpups and of the bullpups in 308, the Tavor is the most reliable and proven. That's all.

[@unkownnameless2699]

I guess the .277 fury version will be called the Tavor 8
