    This Israeli developed AR-15 is entering full production for U.S. customers. The weapon system has two barrels and sports a magazine well to accommodate two 30-round magazines. The double trigger mechanism skirts the ATF definition of a automatic weapon. #GunDebatepic.twitter.com/DBm3eTb8vZ

        This is the civilian version. Developed in Israel, manufactured in US. This week the company announced they will start full production in US for non-military customers. There is also a military version, M43. http://www.israeldefense.co.il/en/node/27651
