Look up MAC (Military Arms Channel) on you tube. He is one of my favorite gun reviewers and he has done some on the galils. I believe you are referring to the new model (2015)Galil Ace's that still use the tried and true old school action but have all the modern components like Pic Rails and Stock options, ect. I think they are pretty sweet setups. Need to look out for the reciprocating handle, and I think they are a bit heavier then a AR style gun, but they are piston driven so that adds some weight. Everything else is pretty standard for modern rifles, ambi controls, polymer all over, AR modularity. |

I should add...if I was looking for an AK type gun, the Galil would be at the top of the list. I think they have models that are 556, 7.62x39 and 308

Thanks AR for your feedback. I do some biz with the Israeli's and they just seem to make things better. First thing that steered me to the Ace, favoring the 7.62 x 39. You pretty much pushed me over the edge, lol!
BUT, what do you think, know about the Tavor X95 from IWI, It's the BullPup version. Handled it today at Cabelas and had a solid feel. Small frame for a 16" barrel.....

If you are looking for a bullpup reports seem to favor the X95 right now as the best on the market. I haven't personally shot one. However, Australia has a new contract for a redesigned AUG which looks very promising and it is going to come to US in a semi-auto version and DesertTech is supposed to be releasing their MDR now (of course that has been going on for a year or two). Just because of that I would probably hold off on the X95 and wait to see if you can get your hands on a new AUG or MDR.
-MDR will be available in 556, 300blk and 308.

Look at the B&T line up also...Brugger & Thomet and compare to the CZ Bren... they are Swiss and supposedly really Bad A...this is just from internet speak though I haven't ever held one or seen one around here

The Bren was in the mix but I have both Scar's 16 & 17 and decided I didn't need another Scar platform.
I do think it's an impressive gun, though.
I'll check out the B&T line. Never heard of them though.
