Default AR + Tavor - Should I?

I have an M&P Sport which I love. I’m also thinking of picking up a Tavor X95 before they get banned in MA. Anyone have any experience with them, how do you like it (or not)?

Thanks!

I'm not a fan of the Tavor (it's very expensive and just doesn't work well for my body geometry), but I know how you feel about life and limited options available to us in the loony anti-2A PRM. I am fortunate, for now, that I have all the long guns I want or need... until they are further banned, of course. I have thought about getting a Kel-Tec SU-16 and might also consider upgrading to a second generation SUB 2000, but that's really about it for me.

I would recommend that you try a Tavor before you buy. You can try a 9mm at Mass Firearms School in Holliston.

TTSH,
Good advice. FYI, I recently got the Kel Tec Sub2K in 9mm (Glock variant) and love it.

Thanks again

A buddy of mine has one that I've fired a few times personally it has just seemed awkward and uncomfortable to me.

Like all bull pups it's a little unnerving having the chamber right next to my face.

Only put a few rounds through someone else's Tavor at the range, and I liked it.

If I were shopping for one, I'd wait until the Tavor 7 (7.62) hits the market any day now. I like some of the updated features on it.
