Having owned a Tavor for a few years, I don't think the T7 will change my thoughts on Tavors in general.
Pros
>bullpup (this being a pro is up to you, but I do find the same OAL with less short-barrel-muzzle-blast is good along with the other commonly mentioned stuff)
>quick mag changes, shot-to-shot on timer of 2.5 seconds average after a few hours of practice, better shooters could get sub2 pretty easily
>reliable
>tough
>overall a good firearm
>can be shot both shoulders because brass deflector
Cons
>expensive
>inaccurate, especially for the price
>heavier than what they say it weighs
>rear heavy, with reciprocating mass well above the shooter's firing hand making the gun teeter-totter in recoil impulse. The shooter's firing hand becomes a bit of a pivot point where the rifle can rock muzzle up as the BCG travels rear and muzzle down as the BCG goes home (for me anyway, other shooters might not have this issue)
>this rocky recoil impulse could be slightly improved with a muzzle device
>fore-end is chunky as fuck just for aesthetics when it would handle better with a slimmer front end
>fore-end can be fixed with money, making the expensive rifle even more expensive
>bad trigger
>bad trigger can be fixed with money, making the expensive rifle even more expensive
Video related for the recoil impulse, it's not a huge deal as it could be mitigated a little bit by a muzzle device. Still, especially shooting with an optic, the crosshair flies up then nosedives. It's pretty jarring compared to all my other semi-autos, even when bigger rifle calibers are involved.
I finally sold Eva Braun because a much better rifle could be assembled for much less money, that's before the aftermarket shit to fix the handguard, muzzle device, and trigger, and it'll still be inaccurate and heavy. I think anyone considering any Tavor model should consider many things before buying.
