From the Vault: IMI Galil ARM 5.56

[@tomjones1967]

I saw a guy selling one (it was super nice) in college in 2001. He wanted $1000 & said I’d never see it again. I had $750 & payments didn’t go. He was right; SWEET rifle!

[@justinbiggs7729]

I just saw one at my local gun store brand new for $1,200. The quality seemed sub par.

[@ronenton4037]

@@justinbiggs7729 it was likely a parts kit build. An original today would be several thousand

You put back on the top cover like a boss

I own two of them. The first one was bought at a pawn shop for 975.00. Kinda funny how the owner of the pawnshop in small town Montana had no clue about the gem he had. The Galil was in surprisingly great shape with no dents or deep scratches, just typical patina and even the wood forend was surprisingly in outstanding shape. I don’t shoot them much since they’re becoming rare. I just leave it as a conversation piece more often than not.

Got a hold of an ATI Galeo a year ago. All original Galil parts minus the barrel and receiver. Sweet sweet rifle, so happy to have it in my collection

[@justinbiggs7729]

A Galeo is not made from Galil parts. It is a cheap knockoff of a real Galil.

[@TheREALLibertyOrDeath]

@@justinbiggs7729 all are made from iwi parts . The bolt, carrier, piston, gas tube, sight block, sights, top cover, recoil spring assembly, folding stock, pistol grip, safety lever, flash hider, handguard abd retainers are all Israeli parts

What a gorgeous piece of machinery

The most common magazine is 35 round; not 33 round.

I like your video very nice I have a arm imi Galil and u hit the nail on the head my friend Keep shooting

[@glockster68]

awesome rfle, thanks for sharing

[@tomelroy]

interesting build...looks like the barrel is pinned to the receiver. Would like to know more about what receiver and barrel were used in that build. Looks great!

[@chrischiampo7647]

The Galil is a Very Robust Design The Israeli’s Got it Right along With the UZI Perhaps the UZI Could Be the Next Video or the Browning 1919 Air Cooled 😀😊👍🏼

[@nicovj100]

The standard magazine takes 35 rounds. For our South African big sized boys the R4 (galil) is light in weight.

[@ChoochContrino]

That’s awesome, if I move to a free state I will build one. It’s on the Maryland ban list.

[@coupesix]

You need to move! I did from commiefornia and it was the best decision I ever made. Fuck it feels great! I had one of these built...move and vote republican keep your 2a rights

Just got an action arms galil sporter, new to collecting, can anyone help figure out which model I have? 392s with clean looking s instead of the sloppy one. Found the (p) on barrel. Looks like it’s only been fired a few times, and seems to be in perfect condition. Came with original box and book. Has bipod and handle. I’m hoping I made a good decision by jumping on it fast. Thanks!

[@TrenchSniper21]

Who did you have Re thread the barrel? I’m looking for someone to rethread mine so I can run my can on mine as well.

[@LanePirkel]

my sar i just use a cnc warrior thread adaptor

[@jamesray1439]

If you knew who he is you’d realize how silly that question is.

[@danheimmermann3497]

What sling do you have on it?

[@sonnet8660]

Is the fire selector made of plastic

[@mrmurdochyessss5406]

How they took one of the most beautiful rifles in history (especially the wood-forend Galil) and turned it into the Galil ACE - a Frankenstein's-monster of mismatched, god-awful ugly, clunky metal and plastic - is mind-boggling.

[@dhbroussard89]

IDF military issued lots of bottles at the time and the troops would use rifle magazine feed lips as a bottle opener and ruin the mag as a result, could not convince troops to stop this practice so they had a bottle opener built into the front of hand guard.....thats the story i heard on u-tube

[@iowa_lot_to_travel9471]

True story

[@wyattpeterson6286]

Do the Israelis still make the original model?

[@dragonsfruitbrother191]

No they do not. They don't have to tooling anymore.

[@jarodcroteau7479]

Anyone know of a maglock option?
