IWI's SAR-21 Rifle
POLICE Magazine reviewer Nick Jacobellis takes the SAR-21 out to the range for testing.
The Tavor can be fitted with a wide variety of optics.
The front sight of the Tavor is easily adjustable and is available with tritium illumination.
The SAR-21's ergonomic design uses a unibody hard-polymer for its construction.
The magazine release is easy to find and operate even under combat stress.
The Tavor accepts standard M16/M4 magazines.
The SAR-21 with a 16.5-inch barrel is a tad shorter than an M4 with a 10-inch barrel because of the bullpup design.
Tavors are available in select fire and semi-auto. The semi-auto model is pictured.
The SAR-21 (Tavor) is a compact bullpup rifle developed for the Israel Defense Forces.
