What new and different capability might that be?

Well, for starters, a 308 bullpup made by a military armament company. Keltec and MDR are not that. Functionally ambi (which for me is a plus). For those of you who see no use in a 308 bullpup, that is fine. For me, a 16 or 18 inch barrel in a short rifle is pretty attractive. It would be about 20 inches shorter than my FAL.

And yes the MDR is a "thing", just not an actual functional rifle. I don't need a rifle like object.

Now technically the Tavor 7 isn't a thing yet either, but if you had to bet on the MDR or the Tavor 7 being up to the rigors of a defensive rifle, I'll bet on the Tavor 7 and that is giving the MDR a 3 year head start.

I'm hearing that DesertTech has addressed the MDR's function issues. Have you heard differently?

I know differently. Take a look at the bullpup specific boards. They are a long way from resolved. Guns are shipping without ejection shoots, mim parts from india, over weight, over gassed, unreliable, not as accurate as advertised... and on and on. The one I have first hand experience could not get through half a magazine. That and read the tirades on line from the owner. He makes Alex RObinson look well adjusted.

If you’re willing to wait, the Bren2 308

Man, I so wanted an XCR back in the day. Glad I didn't blow what little money I had then on one.

Seconding this. But I am more interested in the 762x39 variant

I actually love mine. I know it's not a serious use rifle, but it's an interesting concept that I would have loved to have seen actually get developed. Lots of serious innovation.

So I was dead set on getting the Tavor 7 whenever it gets released. But then I started looking at IWIs other weapons and to tell the truth I saw the Galil in 308, read some great reviews about it and I think its a pretty cool gun. Now I am torn, I honestly like the looks of the Galil more, but the Tavor 7 is compact, more modern and maybe it will be better then the Galil.... Mostly the gun will be used for target shooting fun out to 300yds, along with hog hunting. So just want a 308 that has decent accuracy, is reliable and fun. Should I ditch the Idea of the Tavor and grab the Galil now, or just get wait for the Tavor?

Quite the conundrum, but based on your statement below, you're asking the wrong question-

I already have an ar10, ptr, and m14.

The question you should be asking is, "Which do I get first? The answer is, "The one you find a good deal on first".
