For HD use, the ability to fire it left, right, and one handed is the most important feature. You might be protecting children, dialing 911, opening a door, etc etc.

The problem with the AR pistol is that I do plan on training with it regularly at the range and in a course or two.  For that reason, I would not use the sig brace in this instance for fear of unwanted scrutiny, even though I love it on my wife's range toy.  An AR pistol sans the sig brace is a step down from one with it IMO.

Good point indeed, and I understand completely.
This is why with multiple AR's, I tend to build in redundancy in as many practicle ways as I can from one to another, while maintaining the uniqueness of each build and its purpose.

This way, I can do a bit of training on all effectively, as things like triggers, sights/optics to a degree, stock length and so-on carry over from one to another.

As I said, you're not giving up any lethality as a HD weapon by going with the cheaper weapon, so it's a non-issue, unless you just want to have expensive firearms.

Other: What about a newer bullpup shotgun? Either the UTAS or KSG will give you the same size benefits as well as some usage options like slugs, low power/penetration short shells, or standard buckshot at the expense of a removable magazine. The shotguns will come out at less than half the price and have fewer moving parts.

I want a Tavor, too, but its a tall price to pay just for an HD firearm. That said, these things are so pretty and their aftermarket support is growing quickly! Hopefully we can get some good marksman barrels soon.

Build an AR pistol and use a KAK super tube + Thordsen Cheek rest. Why spend $1500 on a bull-pup when you could build a nice HD AR pistol w/ optic,light, etc...for under $1000. Spend the extra $500 on ammo to practice with.

10.5" in 5.56 would be best but if you go to a variant like 6.8/6.5 you could go as short as 7.5" to 8.5" and retain the same terminal effects.

Must have components:

1-Good iron sights or red dot.

2-Good weapon mounted light that gives momentary and constant on function.

3- Linear comp to redirect the noise and flash toward your target.

4-lawyers number


I personally don't like a sling on a home defense type weapon. It has the chance of catching on shit, flopping around, and getting in the way. The only time I am putting that gun down after a HD shooting is when the 911 operator tells me to because the cops are coming in.

A friend of mine has a Tavor. I think I would rather have it if I was worried about going through doors and down hallways in my home. I never had a problem with the trigger for putting rounds in the center of a man sized target at across the room distances. That said I own a 16in AR, as much as I like his Tavor, I don't need to spend that much on a gun right now. But hey if you have the disposable income for one, grab it and try one out, its a nice little gun to shoot.

Drop in a Geissele and the Tavor trigger turns from poor to great. Honestly though for a defensive gun the Tavor's factory trigger is perfectly fine, it's really not bad for a bullpup. For use inside of a house or vehicle it's hard to beat a bullpup.




Riddle me this: What's the point of dropping a $300 trigger into a TAVOR to greatly improve the feel of the trigger when the accuracy still sucks?  From what I've read, the Geissele or any other drop in takes the function accuracy from ~3 MOA to 2.5 MOA.

This is an excellent point, the Tavor was not designed as a sniper rifle but a battle rifle. Hitting an 8"plate is at 200 is good but you should still should be able to hit it at 300 hundred. As far as using a Tavor for HD and being concerned about it's accuracy is silly unless you are trying to shoot someone at the edge of your property line say 5 or 600 yards out then I would look for I more accurate rifle.  I am confident a Tavor will do much better than 3 moa in a 20/25 yards a typical HD situation. Then again if you have to shoot someone do you really want to shoot him repeatedly in the same spot.

If you don't/can't go with a 10.5"  SBR AR I would choose the Tavor 100% of the time.  They both have their strengths.  In close quarters, barrel length matters, the Tavor is shorter in OAL and better at one handed operations then the 10.5 AR.

I love my Tavor but I have one problem with it.  And it's grabbing it.

There is no easy way to just pick the gun up from various positions.  An AR is just natural to grab.  You can grab it by the top of the rail, by the bottom of the rail, by the barrel, by the buffer tube, by the PG....and they all feel natural and instinctive.

With the Tavor, its really hard to just pick the rifle up.  Pick it up by the top rail and its awkward.  Pick it up by the bottom rail and its ass heavy.  Pick it up the PG and your wrist is banging on the mag.   Once its shouldered, I love it. But getting it to that point is less than ideal.


I hear all the complaints about triggers, gas face, brass face (offhand shooting), manual of arms, mag changes, etc and all of those are easy to overcome (albeit some may require $$$.)  But none of them correct this one problem.  

The AR just shines in this department.  Its probably the easiest rifle to pick up from any position it happens to be in and start sending rounds down range.

ETA:  Added gratuitous Tavor pic.

Arm fatigue!  Train an AR one handed on a target, then try a Tavor.  The AR is not even in the same league.

have a similar setup.  10.5, pistol, brace.  depending on the spaces and distances you have its handy enough.  I prefer a 20 rounder just for balance but 30 works.  anything with an expanding projectile seems reasonable.  I have a bunch of SOST i bought cheap years ago so that's what I leave in it.

It's still short enough to leave you a free hand for door knobs, light switches, phones, carrying a kid, or whatever.  

If not legal in DE, standard AR, then just a pistol with a streamlight.  The tavor is neat but it has a different manual of arms and wouldn't be my first choice.  I guess with enough practice mag changes would feel less wrong.  That said I have shot them before and after a trigger upgrade, same with the AUG, perfectly good accuracy and reliability for a home defense weapon.  If you have the budget the AUG a3 with a rail for your light is good too.  I disliked then FN bullpup.

A basic rifle seems more practical leaving money for a good light, optic, and ammo.  If money isn't an issue the bullpups have been reliable in my use of them (hundreds of rounds w no malfunctions).  I can't remember what fails to locks back on empty or won't fit pmags well or whatever from bullpup day.   There are caveats.

Either/or. They're both semi-automatic, 5.56 carbines that accept magazines with a reasonable capacity. You'd also be fine with a 5.56 AK, SIG or any other 5.56 rifle you've shot enough to be confident in using.

I'd probably use the AR15 because I like the manual of arms, and I've got more time shooting ARs than any other rifle.

This is certainly something to consider. Remember also that bullpups are louder (from the shooter's perspective) because of the design (action just under your face, end of barrel closer).

That is what has me asking the question.  As purpose driven as my gun purchases usually are, and this one would fill the most important niche of home defense, it's so hard for me to consider putting $1.6k into a rifle that shoots 3 MOA.

The bull pup would seem better for indoor use, given the shorter OAL and better center of gravity.

As you say, inside a building 3 MOA is irrelevant.

You are right, its not in the same league, Tavor is peewee, AR is NFL.

I shoot ARs one handed all the time, heck my wife can shoot them one handed.



I have handled Tavors plenty, they are gross boat anchors dude. I would rather clear rooms with an M16A4 than one of those clunky shitpiles.

Arm fatigue!  Train an AR one handed on a target, then try a Tavor.  The AR is not even in the same league.

500 dollar AR vs 2k(ish) Tavor, if you use it in legal self defense and it's confiscated (not saying it will be or that it's right)...

I'd rather that Steve the deputy takes the 500 dollar AR as evidence vs my expensive and relatively rare Tavor.

That's just me, though.

Really?  You use a rifle to save your life, which never happens, btw, and then you worry about the cost.  My life and my family's life is worth more than $2k, so whatever.
