Easily one of my most favorite firearms that’s been released in a long time. Also, the gas pressure is the way it is, to prevent the most common AK jam. And it works extremely well.
This is the standard weapon of the Colombian army, it replaced the galil sar. It is also produced in Colombia thanks to a military agreement with Israel.
@@dexm2010 The galil ACE was made in Colombia from the galil AR of Israel, the improvements were made by indumil with its own materials and now it exports them to Israel
@@darnit1944 Galil was designed to have a built in bottle opener, I shit you not, the thing is: Israeli army is not a regular army, but more like a millitia, all of the soldiers are reservists who finished their 2-3 year mandatory conscription service, not rough heavily trained serious soldiers, they don't really give a shit, they just wanna go home. Back in the day before the Galil, soldiers used to buy drinks from the base's kiosk (cause even though the standard idf soldier's salary is $130 a month, the military still tried to scam the soldiers for whatever money they had) and open them with the magazines, which harmed the magazine, it bent it's lips and stuff, and since the IDF was always pretty limited, they decided that instead of buying more and more magazines, they'd just add a built in bottle opener, so the soldiers wouldn't use the magazines
@John Smith Not all of them are Reservists but their conscripts made up the most manpower in the IDF. Just like my country Singapore, with a small population. The National Service made up more than 70% - 80% of manpower needed for operations in war... Heck. The Israelis trained our first batch of conscripts...
@John Smith Why would we do that. My country have to maintain its neutrality. And to honor as a celebration is too much as we maintain neutrality as to not upset anyone especially our neighbours. They only trained us but they do not fight wars for us.
So refreshing for a knowledgeable reviewer to give honest critiques instead of just parroting back company talking points. You have to have a lot of respect for LAV's integrity.
@@709mash SAR-21 with heavy barrel and angled grip/ stubby grip. While I do love the Galil ACE and have two of the rifles in real life, in BF4, the SAR-21 is hands down a more overall balanced rifle. The gun does not kick nearly as much as the Galil ACE, especially at longer ranges with a zoomed optic on it. The SAR-21 is also more accurate but only by a tiny bit. Hip fire is also better on the SAR-21. Of course you can change that a bit by what attachments you put on it, but you sacrifice other attributes. Something that is not entirely realistic but hey nothing I can do about that... But if you're really willing, the recoil pattern of the Galil ACE IS learnable, just not the most practical according to BF4. All of this despite using the same caliber round (if you're using the ACE 23 AR/ Carbine in BF4 that is). I say all of this with a bunch of use with both guns and have gotten rather familiar with each variant of the ACE in BF4 and the one I like the most is the DMR version of the ACE tbh. But that's just me lol.
@@Edisius95 I'm also very passionate about bf4, but never really played with the sar21, due to the slow fire rate of 600. I can just recommend the AR160 for precision, the F2000 for CQC and the Scar for Hardcore mode(high damage and tap fire beast) Nonetheless, weapons are pretty similar, so it's more a matter of design and fire rate preference than anything else. I will certainly give the Sar21 a go in your set up :) I would really hope we would see a Bf4 remastered someday with increased bullet velocity (you cant hit shit up to 200m with an Assault Rifle due to that :( ), the movement system of bfV which is superb, and a different way to balance classes. (Like why cant I pick a PDW as a medic) God that would be amazing Also very cool would be if the next Battlefield was set in the cold war period, and a stronger Hardcore feel to the game, similar to Bf4 Hardcore.... If you read this I say Kuss aud die Nuss, and Gute Nacht
@@Edisius95 I've said for years in that game is about what gun you shoot best with, lower rate if fire but if your more accurate and able to land every shot, your good. Fast rate of fire for quick kills but can miss up too 10 shots sometimes for the higher rates like 900-950+ Some guys are good with high rate of fire but nobody is that good. And same for lower rate of fire as the lower rate makes it hard for the brain to time recoil while everything else around you is a much faster pace For me I went m4, aku, ace for awhile and a91. I also like the Aug. 416 is a go too. And AWS or m40a5 sniper rifle Also used the mix alot and sr2 smg

@@josephtejeda854 The high speed refers to the framerate that the camera films at which is extremely high. Having a high framerate is what allows slow motion video to look so good.
The hand guard on the galil ace is really small, glad he mentioned it. This beast already has some kills on ISIS here in PH 🇵🇭 being used by the police PNP.
Nice. I love mine. Just got the 5.45 rifle Gen 2 and I already had the Gen 2 5.56 with a 13" barrel but I wanted a rifle length barrel and in 5.45, which is one of my favorite cartridges. I have a Saiga Ak74 and a Riley Defense RAK74 but I wanted a milled receiver 5.45 and those are hard to find in Ak format. I don't even know if they make a milled receiver Ak74, but this one blows them out of the water. The Saiga holds its own but the Riley is garbage next to the Galil.
If you slow down your playback speed to 0.25 while watching the opening "slow motion video" portion at [0:08 ] & [3:47-57] you can actually see the muzzlebrake push/bend the tip of the barrel downward and then the barrel actually flex snap back up! No kidding - It takes place before the impact of the recoil even moves the gun backwards! Larry has not even felt anything yet!
@@zombiecrc to be even more pedantic, its not a real SAR. they just shortened the arm models barrel. the Gas system on an SAR is shorter than a rifle length one, so a bipod can't actually fit. the devs of that game got pretty lazy pretty quick
Perhaps it is overgassed for reliability. Better to be a little overgassed then undergassed. Im Sure Larry knows better than I, but ill throw this out there anyways.
Yeah, 7.62x39 isn't loaded to specific specs like NATO rounds, so to compensate for more dull to hotter loads... it's better then be over gassed to run a wide variety of ammo.
The ergonomics look good; a lot better than any AK. I saw from the first burst that the cyclic rate was higher than i expected. Thanks for the description of over-gassing. That makes sense, and buffers can only do so much, and may affect reliabilty. Looks like a great replacement for the AK, and much easier optics mounting
Excellent video!! Most important thing he said was "Great gun, but you have to know your limitations". I was noticing the flexing the rifle was doing in the show motion clips. I've held the 308 version in my local gun store and it seemed a little front heavy, but that's to be expected on the AK platform. Eventually I'd like to add both .308 and 7.62x39 to my arsenal, Thanks Mr. Vickers!!
great video btw. the over-gassed issue can be fixed 2 ways, the mfg. decreases the gas port hole and does a through test with different 2-3 diameters, or the end consumer such as us can swap the piston out for a KNS precision one, this is what i see as the only 2 viable options in my opinion.
I neglected to say we were running the pistol version. All that being said, it is really a sweet package - huge improvement over the stock AK platform. We used a magpul QD sling up front mounted to the top rail and a blue force gear loop attachment with QD off the back loop to mount the Vickers sling. Nice little package. WIth a red dot unsupressed, we were hitting 200 yd man size steel. Recoil barely noticible. Basically, the only 7.62x39 I enjoy shooting. But it comes with a price - about 3-4x your standard AK.
I just recently bought the 5.45 pistol Galil and I love it! Also ordered the rifle in 7.62 nato. Hasn't came in yet. It has a Romeo 5/Juliet combo. If its 3 moa I'll be fine with that.
I'll call it the FLEXIBLE FLYER after watching the slow mo of it in action. their own promo for the ACE shows the gun flexing but LAV's video shows the extent of the flex from the moment the gas block gets the hit and transfers it to the piston tip it shoves the gas block back sending a wave down the barrel whipping the muzzle around and also back to the receiver where it meets the vibration wave caused by the bolt unlocking and cycling. it looks like the entire receiver gets hit with a nuke blast and just has that instant shudder ripple effect. really kewl stuff to watch in hi detail slo mo. it is surprising they did not put a multi position gas block in the gun with the current trend for silencers and it might have made caliber changes easier to engineer if the restriction was a interchangeable gas plug in the gas block instead of a port in the barrel. great video!
My IMI Galil is one of my favorite rifles so I was very much looking forward to this becoming available. This rifle fell short of what I was expecting from them. LAVs assessment pretty much mirrors my thoughts. While I've enjoyed the times I've got my hands on an ACE, it's few shortcomings have kept me from getting one. The biggest problem is the lame excuse for a handguard. WTF were they thinking? What a step backwards. The flexing optics rail and hideous buttstock leave much to be desired also.
This gun is good man, my country using Galil ACE for Vietnamese People Military to change AK47 and AKM. AK still good but now is modern age, they need to change it.
@@Rettungssocke Not with the 7.62x39 config it won't no. But I'd be worried about the 5.56 and 7.62x51 NATO/.308 variants and their extended range capabilities. Plus the overall mechanical reliability that the Galil ACE has from the AK styled design is a bonus. Not to mention the increased accuracy from the modernization of the AK design too. I have an ACE in 7.62 NATO and if shit were to hit the fan, that would be my go to rifle. I would probably go for a sniper role just because of the longer range that caliber has to offer. I have mine setup in a DMR config. I want to get a silencer for it so it silences the shots and also conceals the muzzle flash. Having silent shots and a concealed muzzle flash would be ideal for combat in any scenario I can think of; especially when daylight is not at it's brightest, and large flashes can be easily seen at long distances. If they can hear where your shot is coming from, and can see your muzzle flash, your position is compromised and you will be targeted. I do not want to be targeted lol.
AK 12 is much better than galil. Even Indian army wanted to replace there AKs and they settled for AK 203(a version of AK12) and now we are in joint venture with Kalashnikov to produce AK203 as well as its variants in India.
Great info and impression. Wish they would've standardized the stock for the AR platform. Hopefully IWI will work on their gas issue. Wonder if they overgassed it to make it more reliable kind of like how the Tavor has the secondary springs in the trigger.
Eh, I would take this overview with a grain of salt. TFB TV did an accuracy comparison video with it against the Mini 30 and Yugo AK, and at 100 yards it was getting sub 2" MOA without the flex affecting an 8x scope accuracy. There may be other limitations, but accuracy is not one with this rifle.
@miguelucho 427 Sorry miguelucho 427. The update of the Galil ar done in Colombia is the Galil Cordova 12. The Galil ACE is a design of IWI. The production licence of the Galil ACE has been sold to several countries, Colombia, India, Vietnam, Ukraine, Chile, etc. In Colombia the production licence for the Galil ACE, entitles Colombia to produce only Galil Ace in caliber 5.56x45mm and can only be produced for the armed forces of Colombia. The Galil ACE produced by Colombia cannot be exported and cannot be renamed in any other way. The Galil Cordova 12 sold to Guatemala is no a Galil ACE, is the old version of the initial Galil with some cosmetic changes done, like a pistol grip, front vertical grip, a foldable ergonomic stock and a hand guard all fabricated in plastic by Indumil Colombia. Colombia also added a Picatiny rail to it to make it look modern. Colombia is not the only producer of the old Galil, South Africa also produces an improved version of the old Galil named Vektor R4, R5 and R6. Do not believe everything you hear in Colombia s sites.
Larry there's one more limitation to this rifle. The recoil spring guide rod locking piece is made of polymer,as compared to metallic one in older galils.So after many continuous shots,it breaks and whole recoil mechanism fails down.
Sgt. Vickers is absolutely right about over gassing the system. The gun doesn't run well suppressed. With it already being over gassed, when you add extra pressure from the suppressor, the action runs so quickly that it doesn't allow the magazine to feed fast enough to properly load. from an AAC SR7 full size can, we were lucky to cycle one or two times before having a misfeed. Take the can off, runs like a champ - but holy smokes there is a lot of flash - flash hiders only!! no brakes or breakout compensators. both suck and produce 12" or more of flash
I saw a lot of flex overall, lower receiver around magazine well to the rear of receiver where tube connects. Makes me wonder How Long will this Poly Receiver last in battle.
i dont know i do know it passed all the criteria requirement for some military units around the world , im guessing they have some sort of standard for minimal weapon reliability , it probably includes longevity of a weapon during extended fire some military units around the world even adopted it as their official primary weapon - sure they are not the U.S army , but still ... looks like its reliable enough (i guess time will tell)
Pele sch well there are countries still using the outdated fal so i m not surprised but for your typical second world countries the new akm seems like much better option in every way than this galil
Excellent review! Im her 3 years later thanks to YT but I can say that this Is a really good review with a solid explanation of how it works and how to use it, good job doing this, you got a NEW suscriber
My compliments to whomever is in-charge of Lighting the Video... Nice to see well lit composition of the shot - with perfect contrast... AKA well lit without trying too hard!!!
I noticed on your slow motion the the front of the Barrel was whipping to the point that the Gas tube and gas block gap was expanding a gap between the two.. I would expect more out of a $1700.00 rifle
LAV a question. You say the 7.62x39 model is "overgassed." I would only be interested in the 5.56 model. Are you saying ALL calibers of the Galil ACE are overgassed or only the one you are shooting?
@@--kolumbianischeroffizier-3284 Nah it's an Israelian rifle, Colombia may manufacture some of them, I don't know about this but this weapon is just used by Colombia police and army, it was designed and developed in Israel
As you were firing the rifle in slow motion,I could see the barrel flexing along the top and the trunion. That flexing is something I have never seen in any weapon. Has it been put together right?
I feel like the camera man is standing almost right in front of the person shooting a fully automatic assault rifle and it makes me really uncomfortable
larry, just grabbed another lipseys glock you did last year . does that or can that spring-loaded curtain cause malfunctions or will that charging handle always push it down? seems a twig from a fall could wedge into it like a door stopper?
MADE IN COLOMBIA...the engineers of the Colombian Military Industry (Indumil), the company in charge of manufacturing the rifles, began looking for a way to convert the AR model. The advances developed with Colombian technology and innovation were presented to the Israeli government, which authorized the transformation of the rifle.
So this one is the Ace Galil 32? Only for the fact that it's shooting a 7.62 x 39 mm. Is that correct? And I'm assuming that the 7.62 x 39 mm cannot be shot through the 51 or 52 Ace Galil? Correct? Or can it?
El fusil galil Ace no es israelí. Colombia compró la patente del galil AR a Israel para fabricar ese fusil. La empresa quien lo fábrica es Indumil (Industria militar de Colombia). Colombia hace unas modificaciones al fusil AR y crea el nuevo fusil ACE. Por consiguiente no es producto israelí, es colombiano.
I just picked up my Gen 2 Galil Ace in 5.45x39mm with the 16" barrel and it's straight 🔥. I just love it. I already had the Gen 2 in 5.56 with a 13" barrel and I really liked that, but I wanted a rifle length barrel and I do prefer 5.45 to 5.56. The only thing I like better about the 5.56 is the last round bolt hold open. The 5.56 also seems heavier despite the shorter barrel. I kind of like the heft of the Ace, it makes for a sweet shooter. I would like to put an adjustable gas block on both of them, but they both aren't extremely over gassed, but they could definitely use an adjustment. Especially if you plan on throwing a can on it, it's practically a must. Plus both of them Gen 2s didn't come with sights. 1850.00$ a pop and they couldn't throw in a pair of sights? What was wrong with the gen 1s sights? Besides that, it's an A+ rifle/pistol technically for the 13".

Facundo Corradini responding to something I didn't ask or point out?
I neglected to say we were running the pistol version. All that being said, it is really a sweet package - huge improvement over the stock AK platform. We used a magpul QD sling up front mounted to the top rail and a blue force gear loop attachment with QD off the back loop to mount the Vickers sling. Nice little package. WIth a red dot unsupressed, we were hitting 200 yd man size steel. Recoil barely noticible. Basically, the only 7.62x39 I enjoy shooting. But it comes with a price - about 3-4x your standard AK.

I really get those goosebumps when this guy throws the loaded rifle around and just switches the selector.
I was in the SADF 87 to 89 and we used R4 (5.56) what a brilliant weapon...
The Philippine National Police acquired the Galil ACE 5.56 as of 2019 and still in use alongside the license-built M16A1, M4 and HK416...
I love your videos and editing and quality of the cameras.
I just recently bought the 5.45 pistol Galil and I love it! Also ordered the rifle in 7.62 nato. Hasn't came in yet. It has a Romeo 5/Juliet combo. If its 3 moa I'll be fine with that.
Regarding the accuracy of magnified optics on the .308 MAC got decent groups from his ACE. It's amazing to see how much flex is in that rail.
I'll call it the FLEXIBLE FLYER after watching the slow mo of it in action. their own promo for the ACE shows the gun flexing but LAV's video shows the extent of the flex from the moment the gas block gets the hit and transfers it to the piston tip it shoves the gas block back sending a wave down the barrel whipping the muzzle around and also back to the receiver where it meets the vibration wave caused by the bolt unlocking and cycling. it looks like the entire receiver gets hit with a nuke blast and just has that instant shudder ripple effect. really kewl stuff to watch in hi detail slo mo. it is surprising they did not put a multi position gas block in the gun with the current trend for silencers and it might have made caliber changes easier to engineer if the restriction was a interchangeable gas plug in the gas block instead of a port in the barrel. great video!
My IMI Galil is one of my favorite rifles so I was very much looking forward to this becoming available. This rifle fell short of what I was expecting from them. LAVs assessment pretty much mirrors my thoughts. While I've enjoyed the times I've got my hands on an ACE, it's few shortcomings have kept me from getting one. The biggest problem is the lame excuse for a handguard. WTF were they thinking? What a step backwards. The flexing optics rail and hideous buttstock leave much to be desired also.
Heard rumors they've recently changed, or are about to improve all the things just mentioned. I would love to love this gun man
That barrel is going crazy in full auto.
This gun is good man, my country using Galil ACE for Vietnamese People Military to change AK47 and AKM. AK still good but now is modern age, they need to change it.
with this gun you will not win any war 🤦♂️
@@Rettungssocke Not with the 7.62x39 config it won't no. But I'd be worried about the 5.56 and 7.62x51 NATO/.308 variants and their extended range capabilities. Plus the overall mechanical reliability that the Galil ACE has from the AK styled design is a bonus. Not to mention the increased accuracy from the modernization of the AK design too.
I have an ACE in 7.62 NATO and if shit were to hit the fan, that would be my go to rifle. I would probably go for a sniper role just because of the longer range that caliber has to offer. I have mine setup in a DMR config. I want to get a silencer for it so it silences the shots and also conceals the muzzle flash. Having silent shots and a concealed muzzle flash would be ideal for combat in any scenario I can think of; especially when daylight is not at it's brightest, and large flashes can be easily seen at long distances. If they can hear where your shot is coming from, and can see your muzzle flash, your position is compromised and you will be targeted. I do not want to be targeted lol.
@@Edisius95 ok
@@adrian71807 Yeah bitchhhhh 😏😎
AK 12 is much better than galil. Even Indian army wanted to replace there AKs and they settled for AK 203(a version of AK12) and now we are in joint venture with Kalashnikov to produce AK203 as well as its variants in India.
Thanks Larry, as always, and excellent view with world class cinematography. Damn, that rail was really flexing....
Great info and impression. Wish they would've standardized the stock for the AR platform. Hopefully IWI will work on their gas issue. Wonder if they overgassed it to make it more reliable kind of like how the Tavor has the secondary springs in the trigger.
Really really appreciate the honesty. I've been debating SBR'ing the pistol, but I think I'm going to wait to see how the 5.56 performs.
Great review Larry. Thanks for posting.
I'm glad you spike about the barrel harmonics and the effect that'll have on accuracy. Good ops.
Eh, I would take this overview with a grain of salt. TFB TV did an accuracy comparison video with it against the Mini 30 and Yugo AK, and at 100 yards it was getting sub 2" MOA without the flex affecting an 8x scope accuracy. There may be other limitations, but accuracy is not one with this rifle.
Great review! You answered my questions, particularly the bolt hold-open and top rail rigidity. Thank you!

I love this channel and those slow motion shots are to die for. Thanks Larry!
is it just me or does the barrel dip down an move
Love the slow motion video to show all the flexing that takes place when a round is fired... very enlightening.
Knew this from Battlefield 4 at first, and now for the first time ever, it showed up on COD MW/WZ
Must. Have . For. Collection.
Great rifles made by Indumil in
Colombia exported to many countries great gun!!!
Man I really like these no nonsense reviews Larry! Thank you
Produced in Colombia. This is the main service rifle used by the Colombian military.
Its Israeli
Now producing in Vietnam, thank Israeli and Colombia!!!!!!
@@trato-jm3fx for galil AR not ACE
In Chile we make this gun too.
@miguelucho 427 Sorry miguelucho 427. The update of the Galil ar done in Colombia is the Galil Cordova 12.
The Galil ACE is a design of IWI. The production licence of the Galil ACE has been sold to several countries, Colombia, India, Vietnam, Ukraine, Chile, etc. In Colombia the production licence for the Galil ACE, entitles Colombia to produce only Galil Ace in caliber 5.56x45mm and can only be produced for the armed forces of Colombia. The Galil ACE produced by Colombia cannot be exported and cannot be renamed in any other way.
The Galil Cordova 12 sold to Guatemala is no a Galil ACE, is the old version of the initial Galil with some cosmetic changes done, like a pistol grip, front vertical grip, a foldable ergonomic stock and a hand guard all fabricated in plastic by Indumil Colombia. Colombia also added a Picatiny rail to it to make it look modern.
Colombia is not the only producer of the old Galil, South Africa also produces an improved version of the old Galil named Vektor R4, R5 and R6.
Do not believe everything you hear in Colombia s sites.
Nice! Loved the slo-mo. Good work...keep em coming!
Hey Vicket, Galil ACE 32 use cabiler 7,62x39 rusia, not Nato
You and Rob ski are my go to guys for gun reviews
Larry there's one more limitation to this rifle.
The recoil spring guide rod locking piece is made of polymer,as compared to metallic one in older galils.So after many continuous shots,it breaks and whole recoil mechanism fails down.
Sgt. Vickers is absolutely right about over gassing the system. The gun doesn't run well suppressed. With it already being over gassed, when you add extra pressure from the suppressor, the action runs so quickly that it doesn't allow the magazine to feed fast enough to properly load. from an AAC SR7 full size can, we were lucky to cycle one or two times before having a misfeed. Take the can off, runs like a champ - but holy smokes there is a lot of flash - flash hiders only!! no brakes or breakout compensators. both suck and produce 12" or more of flash
I saw a lot of flex overall, lower receiver around magazine well to the rear of receiver where tube connects. Makes me wonder How Long will this Poly Receiver last in battle.
i dont know i do know it passed all the criteria requirement for some military units around the world , im guessing they have some sort of standard for minimal weapon reliability , it probably includes longevity of a weapon during extended fire
some military units around the world even adopted it as their official primary weapon - sure they are not the U.S army , but still ...
looks like its reliable enough (i guess time will tell)
Well it is descended from an AK, I'm not surprised by the flex.
Had a cheap AK and killed everything that I shot at.
5000+ rounds through mine. AK fanboys are unbelievable. Polymer buffer is fine. This isn’t I.O inc
Pele sch well there are countries still using the outdated fal so i m not surprised but for your typical second world countries the new akm seems like much better option in every way than this galil
Love his shooting videos, the slow motion HD video is awesome...very informative👍
Who does your Phantom footage? Love the slow Mo.
I love this weapon
Great gun
Excellent review! Im her 3 years later thanks to YT but I can say that this Is a really good review with a solid explanation of how it works and how to use it, good job doing this, you got a NEW suscriber
look at all the military experts down in the comments...
Yeah, some of the comments are just memes.
Hahahaahhah
Mad generals here bro
My compliments to whomever is in-charge of Lighting the Video... Nice to see well lit composition of the shot - with perfect contrast... AKA well lit without trying too hard!!!
I noticed on your slow motion the the front of the Barrel was whipping to the point that the Gas tube and gas block gap was expanding a gap between the two.. I would expect more out of a $1700.00 rifle
The GALIL ACE it's a colombian desing based on the old israel GALIL, got improvements to jungle combat because his reliability.
Just like the Battlefield4 Ace23 Assault Rifle.
EUK007 except in bf4 is chambered in 5.56mm( dont know about calibers) 😂
@@ghostavengerpaz6098 this rifle also comes in 5.56; you dont know what you're talking about

LAV a question. You say the 7.62x39 model is "overgassed." I would only be interested in the 5.56 model. Are you saying ALL calibers of the Galil ACE are overgassed or only the one you are shooting?
Modern warfare players sweating rn
DAMN!! that barrel was flexing like hell!
Whos here after Modern Warfare 2019 added this beast gun into the game?
and it is a Colombian weapon :)

Nice video Larry.So if you had to choose between the AK12 or the Ace which would you roll with?
That's the gun in mw!
As you were firing the rifle in slow motion,I could see the barrel flexing along the top and the trunion. That flexing is something I have never seen in any weapon. Has it been put together right?
For those who don’t know, this is the CR 56 AMAX from warzone
Yeah
Yeah
Warzone is gay. Just call it the fucking ACE 32 Galil.
May recognize the cr56 amax from call of duty
I feel like the camera man is standing almost right in front of the person shooting a fully automatic assault rifle and it makes me really uncomfortable
Yeah, and his handling of the selector with the gun with live ammo and the camera guy in front got me anxious.
larry, just grabbed another lipseys glock you did last year . does that or can that spring-loaded curtain cause malfunctions or will that charging handle always push it down? seems a twig from a fall could wedge into it like a door stopper?
MADE IN COLOMBIA...the engineers of the Colombian Military Industry (Indumil), the company in charge of manufacturing the rifles, began looking for a way to convert the AR model. The advances developed with Colombian technology and innovation were presented to the Israeli government, which
authorized the transformation of the rifle.
Beautiful weapon.
CR-56 AMAX
So this one is the Ace Galil 32? Only for the fact that it's shooting a 7.62 x 39 mm. Is that correct?
And I'm assuming that the 7.62 x 39 mm cannot be shot through the 51 or 52 Ace Galil? Correct? Or can it?
legends know it CR 56 AMAX
That slow-mo section was tiiiiiiight
Soy colombiano y estoy orgulloso de este rifle de asalto
Ese fusil es muy bacano. Quiero uno. Saludos, parce.
The bolt didn't lock back
Battlefield players: confused screaming
COD players: OMG! It’s the gun that almost has 0 recoil in warzone
I believe it only applies to the 5.56 and .308 ACEs. ACE 32 don't have a bolt lock unless if you use a Yugo bolt hold open mags.
El fusil galil Ace no es israelí. Colombia compró la patente del galil AR a Israel para fabricar ese fusil. La empresa quien lo fábrica es Indumil (Industria militar de Colombia). Colombia hace unas modificaciones al fusil AR y crea el nuevo fusil ACE. Por consiguiente no es producto israelí, es colombiano.
thats right colombia sell the 60 % of the parts of the gun to IWI for the production and comercialization of it
Coproduccion israelí de iwi y colombia indumil
@@JuanPabloRapalino8907 indumil and iwi both have licence to produce it
I just picked up my Gen 2 Galil Ace in 5.45x39mm with the 16" barrel and it's straight 🔥. I just love it. I already had the Gen 2 in 5.56 with a 13" barrel and I really liked that, but I wanted a rifle length barrel and I do prefer 5.45 to 5.56. The only thing I like better about the 5.56 is the last round bolt hold open. The 5.56 also seems heavier despite the shorter barrel. I kind of like the heft of the Ace, it makes for a sweet shooter. I would like to put an adjustable gas block on both of them, but they both aren't extremely over gassed, but they could definitely use an adjustment. Especially if you plan on throwing a can on it, it's practically a must. Plus both of them Gen 2s didn't come with sights. 1850.00$ a pop and they couldn't throw in a pair of sights? What was wrong with the gen 1s sights? Besides that, it's an A+ rifle/pistol technically for the 13".
Why not the 762?
@@Kenwood.. I already have a Saiga long barrel 7.62x39 Ak, 2 WASR 10s, a WASR 10 63, and even an AR that takes AK mags. But for 5.45s it's only A Riley Defense RAK74 and a Saiga 74, so the Galil Ace Gen2 was an easy choice. Wait are you talking 7.62x51? I don't have too many of those, I'm thinking about doing a build from DS arms and getting an FAL.

Came across this on accident, can say I'm not disappointed
the Galil ACE was developed by Indumil in Colombia.
