The personal weapon of most IDF soldiers is the M16, particularly, the M16A2, shortened CAR-15, M4, and M4A1 assault rifles. The majority of regular-service Infantry Corps soldiers are equipped with the shortened M16, but the longer model is still in use among recruits and reserve forces. In 2005, the IMI Tavor assault rifle was brought to operational use, and is intended to become the corps' principal assault rifle in the future. Every soldier in operational service is also equipped with various hand grenades.
The company and platoon weapons are diverse, and include the IMI Negev and the Fabrique Nationale MAG machine guns. Heavier weapons include the Browning M2 and the General Dynamics Mk 19 grenade launcher. Various units also use snipers who rely on the M16A2E3, the Remington M24 SWS, the Barret M82, and the SIG Sauer SR86.

Because they got all the U.S. Army's excess A-1's and such, and because they get free **** from us. It's a Hell of a lot better in most situations than an AK, unless you can't clean it regularly..
