Battery Information Video
New to airsoft? Here are some safety tips for airsoft guns that we recommend following.

Description:
The Elite Force IWI (Israeli Weapon Industries) Tavor Tar 21 is one of the most innovative guns in the small arms industry; this airsoft gun is based on the rifle the IDF chose to replace the M16. Externally, the Elite Force TAR-21 outer body is constructed from a high strength nylon polymer, which keeps both the gun's overall weight down, as well as taking advantage of a bullpup design, which reduces the overall length of the rifle, because of this, the rifle can use a rifle length inner barrel and maintain a shorter profile. These factors, along with the good hop up and muzzle velocity being around 380FPS make for a great field gun. The gearbox is version 6 layout, and is constructed entirely out of metal, a long with all of the vital parts on the inside, with the polymer internal parts being most of the compression parts, this gives the gearbox good longevity and easily replaceable parts when necessary. Unique to the rifle is the functioning bolt catch that also de-tensions the spring which keeps the spring from losing strength, and reduces stress on the gearbox, as well as an electronic blowback when firing.

Product Information:
This gun sure seems to get a bad reputation on airsoft forums because of the manufacturer and I was a little hesitant to get it, but I really like the design of the Tavor and the prospect of having a very accurate gun that is not too long was very appealing. I am so glad I took the chance and have to say I full heartedly recommend this gun. I play in a setting that is wooded with a few clearing areas. I used to steer clear of the clearings with my AK, but with this thing I rivalled the upper-level guns that were at the field. The rate of fire is very satisfying with a 9.6 mini and the accuracy is incredible. I was hitting people 150 feet away! I am very pleased, and very impressed that Airsoft GI sent the package so fast. The $11.99 flat rate shipping to Canada was all it took to convince me to buy from them and based on their service and prompt replies with all my questions in my quest to find the perfect AEG, I won't be purchasing from anywhere else.

Pros:
Good FPS (around 380)
Great accuracy
Really solid feel to the gun
Takes M4 mags
Integrated back-up iron sights
Nice rate of fire
Not too heavy
Bull-pup configuration


Cons:
Loud (really, really loud because of the blowback)
Hard to put battery in at first
Not a lot of battery room
Rear sight peephole is really small - recommend using an optic

Product Information:
I bought this gun with the hope of having a great field gun that could shoot accurately with range. This gun is exactly that. This gun just stands out from the rest in more ways than one. The blow back is fantastic and adds a sense of realism and intensity.

Pros:
Good quality body
Great accuracy (almost a laser)
Spring de-tensioner
M4/M16 mags
Catches peoples attention
Nice and compact with a looooong barrel


Cons:
Absolutely NO videos for a breakdown of the gun
mold lines along the body
0 sling mounts
but that is literately the only issues so far. And those are not a big deal.

Product Information:
I've owned this rifle for 3 months. I wanted to wait until I fielded it a few times before writing a detailed review.

1st off, I love this rifle. It's my main Airsoft rifle because of how user friendly it is. Virtually no inner upgrades are required for this gun, unless of course you want a better spring. This comes stock with a M110, shooting between 350-360 FPS.

The rifle is back heavy, but this is good because you don't want to be lugging around a 9lb AK around. Or, well, you would have gotten an AK. The weight in the back allows you to keep it shouldered longer, and allows for quick, precise corner/room clearing capabilities in CQB. The ABS plastic helps reduce the weight, and it's sturdy against heavy use. The Bulpup design maintains a long barrel length for increased accuracy, in a compact profile. I chose this particular model with the longer barrel because...

2nd off, it's amazing outdoors. I can adjust the hop-up no problem to shoot atleast 200ft, and even with the blowback, the rifle is quiet from a distance! You don't hear that electric metal clinging of the piston and the spring on the inside. It doesn't sound like an RC car. The blowback of the bolt gives that realism feeling, and I really like having that extra recoil. It makes the kills feel realistic, and I also own a Tavor X95 5.56 rifle.

The battery compartment easily holds a 7.4 lipo without any snagging or tucking. If you're not running a lipo on this rifle, then you're only hindering yourself. The sights are just fine, but you should think about rocking a red dot optic. A cheap optic will get you buy no problem, because it's Airsoft afterall. You don't need these $150 red dots. An easy $40 red dot with a few changeable reticles will do just fine. If you can't hit your target with a cheap red dot, then you need more practice and your loadout needs to be second nature.

Onto the Cons which I took a star for...

The trigger pull is long. This kinda creates this weird period of anticipation, but it eventually gets better with practice. I deducted a star for this because in CQB, some fields only allow semi-fire. Some people with shorter trigger pulls are going to shoot 3 rounds WAY quicker than you are. This forces you to be accurate and smart when you play, but that's also why I like it. This could be a con for most, so that's why i'm talking about it.

As for this mag release... Your wrist is going to hit it. It's an absolute pain. If you're rolling plastic MAGPUL or P-Mags, you're going to have a tough time. Metal Mags are going to be the way to go if you're rolling with the Tavor. The metal mags lock in no problem, and have no issues feeding. The plastic mags slide out easy, don't sit magwell very good, and don't feed sometimes. Even with mid-caps, I found that I'd have to shove it up/use my bicep to keep the mag secured. It's just a pain, but it's something you'll have to deal with if you're looking for lighter loadouts.

Besides the plastic mags which is my choice, I'm only dinging the gun for the trigger pull and the flimsy mag release.

I'd choose this rifle over your standard AK and M4's any day of the week. You can take care of the gun internally with the Quick Spring Change, the Spring Tension Release, and the Easy Disassembly. You won't need to maintain your rifle if you take care of the rifle properly, as it's very well put together right out of the box. The lighter weight in the front makes it easy to manage in combat, and there are easy conversion kits for shorter/longer barrel lengths on the site for $40. You can customize the gun with lights/lasers on the awesome rails, and even get different handguards with lights built in.

Pros:
- Lightweight Construction: Ideal for long periods of play
- Plenty of Battery Space for a 7.4 Lipo
- Awesome blowback
- Non-RC sounding piston/gearbox
- Accurate shot
- Hop up is just fine
- Comfortable to hold

Cons:
- Long trigger pull: Not ideal for semi-only CQB fields
- Terrible magwell for plastic mags. Metal mags only are recommended
- Fire Select can easily be hit if you're semi-auto only.

Staff Answer:
An 11.1V LiPo battery may cause damage with many guns with prolonged use, as the battery forces the gun to cycle faster and may create excess stress.
