The TAVOR SAR Flattop Series includes a full-length Mil-Std Picatinny top rail in addition to the standard short rail – mounted at a 45° angle opposite the charging handle. It is available with a 16½” barrel with an overall length of 26 1/8″or an 18″ barrel with an OAL of 27 5/8″.
According to Uri Amit, CEO of IWI, “We are very pleased to showcase the newest member of the UZI family – possibly the best-known and most widely sold weapon family in the world. Our goal was to translate the advantages and reliability of the UZI PRO SMG into a configuration that could be used by law enforcement and Special Forces for a variety of missions. This goal has been fully realized with the UZI PRO Pistol. In addition, we have expanded the operational capabilities of the JERICHO Pistol with a new feature – the round chamber indicator. I am certain that both will be used operationally by forces around the world.”
