What does the collective think about the IWI Tavor in 9mm?

I kind of dig bullpups in 9mm. They seem more appropriate than a 9mm rifle.

I never cared for bullpups since the reloads feel awkward, nothing practice couldn't fix though.

That said, I would still love to have a Tavor. They are sexy looking rifles. And I agree for a 9mm it makes sense instead of a regular rifle.

Totally agree. Having the mag behind your strong hand feels weird, and it would take a while to build up muscle memory.

Yeah but they are sexy and give you the benefit of a SBR without the stamp. Don't you have a can on the way?

22 cal can, no 9mm yet.

Love bullpups... particularly if they can make the trigger mechanism work without gritty/spongy linkages (I don't know how the Tavor is set up)

For that size rifle, 9mm makes a lot of sense to me- it's also much more pleasant to shoot than .223. Not as loud and less recoil- not to mention cheap.

9mm has no place in a full size bullpup. You can make a standard fed 9mm rifle shorter than the whole package

Without doing a SBR?

Not without stamps.

This might be shorter with the suppressor.

Well, I might get the Tavor, but for now I just submitted the Form 1 for the Scorpion. I really don't like the idea of an SBR that presents some travel issues for me, but it's the best option at this point.

Form 1 at least one lower. I have another coming for another lower so I can keep the above dedicated to 9mm. But I could switch up if I wanted.

I probably should have done that first, but I will do one. I just hope the damned stock kits become available again. They should with the carbines coming out, but right now they don't exist.

I don't like them. I mean its 7.9 Lbs before optic and the trigger on the ones I have messed with blow ass. Also, for $1,999, you can SBR and AR9, buy a 9mm can and have a nice stubby 9mm AR, suppressed for less than MSRP of that thing. Probably money left over for a PA Micro Red dot or Aimpoint PRO too...

AUG!

Everyone has a 9mm AR though. I'm looking for something unique that will have an opportunity to increase in value.

Are you stuck on 9mm?

Yeah, I have an Everest sized mountain of it and I don't want to add another caliber. Nothing against any other excellent alternatives, I just have a load of 9mm.

Ok off the top of my head as far as 9mm options.

MPX
AR-9
Tavor
I think I saw something about a 9mm AK
MP5
Bolt action 9mm
Uzi

Or say fuck it and buy a Mac-10/11
