Just out of curiosity - who is the targeted market? It would be hard to believe you are going to try and sell these in the states and its near impossible to get a license in israel for a long gun - is this mil contract specific? If so whats wrong with the colts in service? Not blasting just asking.
I trust Zahal.org products, and the AR's look great, but as a gunsmith and designer I have yet to test a piston AR that I would recommend, due to nearly all of them being over gassed, and have extremely high wear rates for the extractor, extractor spring, cam pin, piston return spring (especially from overheating and potential for loss of temper from extended firing), and increased wear of the upper receiver due to carrier tilt, from short stroke systems. I could write a book on the topic.
With the chamber sealed with a round, and the dust cover closed, there's very little sand actually getting into the mechanism. Any AR based system will still function that way.
Secondly, any piston driven system isn't going to transfer heat into the bolt carrier.
I'm not saying that it isn't a nice package, it's just not anything that hasn't been around for the last ten years or so.
the gilboa APR is an awesome knockdown version of the m4...it should look great with a magpul tango down vertical grip though.

The pistol is cool. All the rifle models are nothing new or special.
Oh, and they all need suppressors.
