    Hey guys. I recently got a Tavor from a fellow member! I love the rifle. The only thing that isnt accurate about the rifle is the person behind the trigger. Its fabulous. I have one problem with it though, with the charging handle sticking out like it doea wont let me put it in a case and it wont clear the lockbox I am getting for the jeep. Has anybody seen a handle that will lay flat or something of the sorts? I need it to clear 3" width laying on its side. My AR does it fine but I REALLY want to be able to secure and carry the tavor. Any help would be appreciated. The box I am looking at is a tuffy box that fits under the rear seat if that matters.

    I seem to recall someone on the bullpup forum mentioning such a handle but it may have been a wish list item. I don't think this currently exists but someone may very well be working on it. If one does become available you are most likely to read about it there first. If/when one does get developed, it will likely be available at bullpuparmory.com.

    I've been looking at one of these, how is the accuracy. I've also heard of the trigger being heavy. What's your experiences with it?

    There are aftermarket handles for the FS2000 that do what you want, perhaps they'll work here -- or could be the basis of having a working part CNC'd

    As others have noted, the gun is so new to the US that aftermarket parts are just starting to come along, but charging handles are one of the items that has been mentioned. Those with skill have reported that the Tavor can be fairly accurate. Mine is as accurate as I need it to be at the relatively short ranges for which I intend to us it. Tim at Military Arms Channel was ringing steel at 500 yards with his Tavor in this video:
