    IDF Develops Micro-Tabor Rifle

    The IDF and the government-owned Israel Military Industries have developed a new weapon called the Micro-Tabor. The gun is the world’s first dual-caliber assault rifle, its inventors say.



    The Tabor is a relatively short rifle with a 33-centimeter barrel, which allows it to shoot long distances while remaining useful in urban combat situations. Variations of the Tabor are in use in several countries besides Israel, including India, Columbia, and Thailand.
