M4 Rifle in IDF

There are currently more M4 rifles in use in the IDF then any other rifle.

The M4's (and M16A1, M16A3, and various other M16 variants) have been in constant use by the IDF since the 1970's.

My M16A1 is so old that it rattles loudly. But it still shoots great.

The IDF uses the M4 for the majority of it's rifle tasks, from sentry duty, to specialized Urban Warfare an everything in between. Anti Terror squads, marksmen, infantry, combat engineers, all carry the M4 in various configurations, with all kinds of accessories.


Chrome lined barrels, scopes of all kinds, and even M203 grenade launchers are in use by the IDF on their M4's.

Guns In Israel, More Questions From Readers

Red wanted to know, "How difficult is it for an Israeli citizen to obtain a carry permit?"

Israeli citizens over the age of 21, regardless of race and religion, are entitled to apply for a Carry Permit. That means that here in Israel, there are Arabs, many of whom are related to known terrorists, walking around with legal handguns.

The powers that be here in Israel understand that more guns in the hands of law abiding citizens means better security for all. So they issue carry permits on an as needed basis to everyone over 21 that has a valid need.

Valid need can be a business need (if you deal in large amounts of cash, diamonds...), Security guards, and anyone living in a dangerous area (small towns, border areas, etc), Volunteer Auxiliary Police, etc.

Ambulance drivers, paramedics, firemen, mail carriers, all are issued pistol permits almost automatically.

The license process takes 3 months. Your health, mental stability, and criminal background are thoroughly checked. And new immigrants need 3 years of citizenship prior to obtaining a carry permit.

If you have any questions, let me know and I'll try and answer them.
