I don't know of anyone making longer buttpads for the tavor. Your best bet is to find a compensator or flash hider or whatever you like that makes the gun long enough and have a gunsmith pin and weld it. Or just get in a time machine and buy one a year ago. That's what I did.

Anyone happen to know if the adjustable buttpad on the PRS counts towards OAL? It'd be cool if someone had a carbine stock that had a extendable buttpad that could be used for an extra inch or two.

Actually, that sounds pretty cool in general. Better cheek weld potential when you can keep the stock close in to the rifle but push the buttpad out. Surprised no one's made one... I guess the UBR is kinda like that, but I think it's overly heavy the way it does it.

The way I understand the Recoil Pad/Butt Pad issue is attachment.

For example a slip over Limbsaver Recoil Pad would not count as its not part of the firearm. A Slip Over M4 Pad would not count towards OAL as its not part of the firearm.


If a Recoil Pad is screwed into the stock wether it be wood or plastic, glued on, or if the pad is part of the mechanical design it counts.

For example the PS90 recoil pad is critical to the function of the firearm and is only about 1/2" thick. There was a company that used to make a much longer pad which was all one piece. Adding something like that would count for OAL, BUT taking a limbsaver slip on and pushing it on the gun would not count for OAL.

Magpul has extended pads for several of their stocks. They screw in and would count toward the OAL as they are part of the stock.

Basically if its glued on, screws on or is a replacement part for the integral part of the firearm it would count. If its a slip on it wouldn't count.

Can a MD resident sell a 16" Tavor bought pre-ban to another MD resident? Is it grandfathered in or banned outright?

I've got an unfired, NIB FDE SAR I'm looking to sell to offset my foray into the world of NFA.
