The IMI Tavor Assault Rifle (TAR) also has a civilian version designed for the U.S. market. Modeled after the new Tavor 2, the civilian Tavor is much different from the original Tavor 1 design.

IMI is currently checking the concept with the American company Barrett Firearms, but nothing is certain yet. If and when the prototype will be made commercially, it will be most likely made eniterly in the U.S. from all U.S. parts and will host standard M16 magazines. The weapon will also be very expensive with price estimates ranging from 1500$ to 2000$.

rumor has it that the expiration of the AWB depends on this being made or not

Mrs Barrett, That picture is very flattering.

I'd love to own a bullpup design gun but don't think I'd use it enough, being a lefty.

I do shoot pistol right handed almost half the time, but haven't practiced with the rifle as much.

No Problemo on being a "lefty"... just buy a STEYR AUG bullpup. You can swap out the bolts & ejection port covers for lefty ejection. I've had two of them & never had a malfunction of any kind... great weapons!

I don't really care much for bullpup designs but maybe Mrs. Angela Barrett could coinvince me otherwise

I'd be more impressed if Ronnie would teach her to keep her finger off the trigger and maybe offer it in .50 BMG:D :D
