Ballistics and field use

7.62×39 capabilities

Chambered in 7.62×39, the IWI US Galil Ace delivers strong terminal energy at intermediate ranges, excels on brush and close-quarters work, and uses readily available ammunition. The cartridge’s heavier bullet profile improves barrier performance over typical intermediate rounds, which is beneficial for defensive scenarios that require penetration through light cover.

Features that matter

Key features called out in the product description include the 30 rd. PMAG and the pistol brace. The PMAG is a lightweight, polymer magazine that reduces weight and resists corrosion; the pistol brace increases controllability without adding excessive length. At a listed price of $1857.99, this Semi Auto offering positions itself competitively among premium imported and domestic tactical rifles.
