.223 Galil Anyone ?

[2ADMNLOVER]

Maybe getting one in the near future but I'm seeing reports of problems so I have a few questions for you guys that have them .

Do you guys still have them , if not what didn't you like about it that made you sell it ?

Will they eat brass AND steel / anything you feed it ?

Does anyone use one of the magazine adapters , how well do they work ?

Anything to watch out for with these rifles ?

Thanks in advance .

What I have heard is all good but problems from an Israeli gun would surprise me, especially an Israeli manufactured AK47 w mods...which is what this gun is right?

I had a century golani which is essentially the same thing. it ate everything I fed it but if you reload then forget it, it dents the hell out of brass.

The original Galils are pretty nice rifles and work well. The Century rifles had some issues with feeding, mags and firing pins. It appears that some worked well and others didn't. I had an ARM but it was 308 and I loved it. I'd still own it if someone hadn't offered me a pile of cash for it during the assault weapons ban. Here is a link with a little info. There are others if you look around..

I've got one and love it . Shoots fine no problems at all, i use steal cased ammo in all the time a little on the heavy side. I'll take it to the range all the time and leave the ak & ar at home.
