Israel Weapon Industries (IWI) has launched a US based subsidiary, IWI US, Inc. The company has leased a 21,000 sq. ft. facility in Harrisburg, PA, and will initially begin marketing the Tavor bullpup assault rifle line in several configurations and the Uzi Pro pistol.

According to Uri Amit, IWI’s CEO, the company has been operating for many years in the global defense and Law Enforcement markets.

“All of the weapons we have developed have become the standard for the IDF as well as for the armed forces, Special Forces, and police forces throughout the world. We have now decided to enter the civilian market in the US and offer products that have been specially developed for the US commercial market”
