The IWI Tavor SAR (Semi-Automatic Rifle) is the civilian version of the TAR-21 bullpup assault rifle adopted by the Israel Defense Forces as their standard-issue infantry weapon. Its compact bullpup design provides a full-length 16.5-inch barrel in an overall length of just 28.4 inches, making it ideal for close-quarters while retaining rifle-range ballistics.
