I take my new Tavor out and review it. Is it possible to love a bullpup?

From the first time I held and fired one of the T&E Tavors I knew I had finally found a bullpup that could work for me.

I give my thoughts on the Tavor, do some shooting, use some different mags and get rained out-

Having never shot a Tavor all my thoughts are purely speculation but that thing looks like it would be hard to keep on target. I have shot the commercial version of a Steyer AUG A3 and that thing took some getting used to so maybe this is much the same.

It's possible to love the gun; just not the trigger

Worst comes to worst, it looks like you might be able to adapt it to be a roofing nailer...

You're photo is the first USA released one I have seen that has a forward grip installed. All the other pics I've seen doesn't seem to indicate a rail there. How did you manage that?

There's mounting holes for a rail on the bottom of the front handguard. I'm guessing IWI makes the rail as an accessory something was modded to fit.

I have my sources

Namely IWI. It's a "media sample" and will eventually be available to the general public as well.
