'Sexy’ Tavor rifle replaces Uzi as Hollywood weapon of choice


Hollywood experts: ‘The Tavor is precisely the type of weapon Hollywood craves; a sexy weapon that looks good and fires well’


There is a new Israeli star making a splash in Hollywood. The Micro Tavor, the miniaturized version of the Israeli Tavor Assault Rifle, is fast becoming the “it” player in Hollywood action films.

As reported to the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, major Hollywood production companies are currently looking to purchase Micro Tavors for use in big budget action flicks. “The Tavor might very well be the next big Hollywood hit, seeing as the Uzi is fast becoming obsolete,” a source familiar with the matter indicated.



A weapons expert working in the entertainment industry called the Tavor “exactly what Hollywood film makers are looking for; a ‘sexy’ weapon that looks great and fires extremely well.”

This feisty new weapon is not only a hit on the Hollywood screens, however. A few elite US army units are also looking to purchase Micro Tavors, which are already a fixture in many IDF combat units.

Now thats a weapon. I'm talking fun. I'm dead accurate (only on single fire, on full auto I'm lucky if I can keep the tri-pod steady) at a much farther distance then the M-16.

Havnt tried it yet.

So far the AR-15 Swat and the H&K Mp5 are my faves.

My fav pistol is the Mark XIX .50 AE Desert Eagle (props to Israel for copying the Americans)

Desert Eagle is a nice pistol if you need to show it off to some homies from Bed Stuy. For actual combat, I think the only piece that would be worse then a Desert Eagle is a TEC-9.

I only used it on the range, its pretty accurate and my hand hurts after 3 clips.

I have seen it used in combat, usually with a rack mounted scope and modified grips.
