In Israel we've got 3 standard rifles:
the M-16, The Uzi, and the Galil- Uzi is used almost
totally for rear-echelon basic training(mostly for
women), the M-16 variants are the infantry standard
(although that may be changing), and the Galil is used
mostly as a personal weapon of armor troops(because of
its weight).
There is also a new rifle that is at the advanced
testing stage- the Tavor.
