JERUSALEM - Israeli forces will soon replace the assault rifle made in the United States (U.S.) with the M-16 rifles in the country, Tavor. An M-16 is still used during Israel's Lebanon War to Operation Pillars of Defense.
Tavor is a type of weapon with a design that is very different from the M-16. Weapons that made the company the Israeli military in the 1990s, and used by regular forces Israel.
In 2006, a brigade of the Israeli army has begun to replace M-16nya with Tavor. Six years later, thousands of Israeli troops began to replace old weapons. Similarly, as reported by Maariv, Friday (14/12/2012).
After Pilar Defense Operations in Gaza ended, the Israeli reserve forces were asked to hand over his M-16, which they have used for the past two decades. Israel also decided to replace the weapons.

For a veteran of the War of Lebanon who are familiar with the M-16, the weapon changes regarded as surprising. One Israeli military official Major Roniel Turgeman weapon called the turn like a serious challenge.
According to Turgeman, it took a long time for an army to operate the new weapon. The armies of the Jewish State is also required to practice in a short amount of time, and it is not a simple way.
Turgeman also add, it took quite a long time to make the Israeli troops skilled in using the Tavor.
In addition to Israeli troops, a number of countries in the Americas is also rumored to have used a weapon made the Jewish State. They are Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, and Honduras.
