The IWI Tavor SAR 16.5" 5.56mm conversion kit transforms your existing Tavor SAR 9mm platform into a versatile 5.56 NATO rifle without replacing the entire firearm. This factory conversion kit from IWI US is engineered for shooters who want to expand caliber capability while keeping their current Tavor platform—ideal for hunters, sport shooters, and tactical rifle enthusiasts looking to run the same controls and ergonomics across multiple ammunition options.
The kit ships with everything needed to make the conversion: a 16.5" cold hammer-forged barrel in CrMoV steel with 1:7 right-hand twist, matched to the 5.56 NATO cartridge. You'll also get a complete right-hand bolt carrier assembly with recoil components, an A2 flash suppressor, a 5.56-specific deflector and frame, and a barrel wrench for installation. The inclusion of a Magpul PMAG Gen M3 30-round magazine means you can test your conversion immediately.
This conversion approach appeals to Tavor shooters who've built familiarity with the platform and want to stay in that ecosystem rather than transition to a different rifle. The cold hammer-forged barrel construction is built for durability and consistent accuracy across high round counts. Installation requires basic armorer-level knowledge; if you're not comfortable handling the swap yourself, a gunsmith familiar with the Tavor platform can complete it quickly.

This kit is designed to convert a Tavor SAR chambered in 9mm to 5.56 NATO. Confirm your rifle is the TSB17-9 or compatible 9mm Tavor platform before ordering; conversion compatibility can vary by specific Tavor variant.
The barrel wrench is included. Installing a conversion kit typically requires basic armorer skills and a torque wrench. If you're unfamiliar with disassembling and reassembling your Tavor, have a qualified gunsmith perform the installation to ensure proper function and safety.
The kit includes the 16.5" barrel, right-hand bolt carrier assembly with recoil components, A2 flash suppressor, 5.56 deflector and frame, barrel wrench, and one Magpul PMAG Gen M3 30-round magazine.
Yes—the conversion kit design allows you to swap calibers by changing barrels and bolt components. Keep your original 9mm barrel and bolt assembly if you want to alternate between the two cartridges.
