I thought the IDF has been transitioning to the Tavor and X95s. I've been seeing less and less ARs

Could very well be true. When I was at Benning, there was an IDF "operations group" there doing some cross training and also a group of IDF Armor guys going through the manuever center course.

Being the most worldly of my peers, I picked their brains every chance I got.

This was 2011, so the Tavor might not have been the new hotness yet.

And in regards to Hogs...my family raises cattle, soybeans, and corn.

They are nothing but a nuisance that threatens the family livelyhood. Kill them. Kill them all.

In 2009, the Tavor was selected to completely replace all weapon systems used by front line troops by 2018. So yeah, it would have been a gradual transition. he first Tavor (MTAR-21 variant) rifles were issued to new recruits of a main IDF infantry brigades in 2013, replacing the M-16 rifles
