The best rifle of 2023? The IWI Carmel!
This review of the IWI Carmel rifle, presented by 'thegatman', highlights its performance and features after approximately 850 rounds. The reviewer notes the rifle's soft-shooting characteristics, attributed to its short-stroke piston system, and praises its ambidextrous controls and proprietary two-stage trigger. However, concerns are raised regarding heat buildup from the pencil barrel and short-stroke piston, and a potential design flaw with the dust cover interfering with casing ejection when the stock is folded.
