GUNS Magazine IWI Galil ACE GEN II

The Israel Weapon Industries Galil ACE GEN II is quite possibly the most effective combat-proven rifle you’ve never heard of. Previous versions of this rarefied weapon are used in active military service in Chile, Vietnam, Chad, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Nigeria, South Sudan, Zambia, and elsewhere.

The Galil ACE is an evolutionary development of the superb original 1970s-era Israeli Galil service rifle. Featuring a variety of caliber options, along with all the bells and whistles we have come to expect from a modern combat weapon, it’s a mature and effective defensive tool.

The new Galil ACE GEN II orbits around a milled steel receiver with rugged polymer particulars. Featuring a long-stroke, rotating-bolt, gas-operated action, it’s one of the most reliable tactical firearms on the market. The gun comes standard with a side-folding, collapsible stock, a free-float handguard awash in M-LOK slots, and ample space for tactical glass up top. In its 5.56mm guise, the ACE utilizes readily available STANAG magazines like the Magpul PMAG.
