new galil ace

[rally guy]

Is there any chance that despite the name there would be no lineage to the galil/ak and they could be deam non restricted?

Probably not but since it's from iwi i'm shure it's a good gun.

 

[rally guy]

And to all from the 958 tread yes! Yes! It has a chrome line barrel! Lol

 

[bfiles]

More then likely it's a prohib

 

[saskcop]

Sweet rifle. No bolt hold open after last round fired. With its AK lineage, I am sure that it will be prohib.

 

[Locos]

Pretty sure Galil's are specifically named in the Prohibition order, so definitely a no-go. Still, it's nice to dream.

I fired it years ago in isreal. It is my fave of the IWI lineup

Plus it seems its got a few updates on it.

So since you fired it and there no talk a out it you must know if theres a prohibited frt for it?

Also I am calling you guy's tomorrow to make a order

 

[Armedsask]

Prohibited as a variant.

 

[CanAm]

galil=prohib

Valmet with Galil parts on it is the next best thing......just saying.....

No.

 

[BCShooterGuy]

damned stupid laws....

 

[daniel_250r]

Its a very improved ak, i love the way they sealed up where the bolt rides. Sadly well never see it here

Why can't some one just ask manufacturer of aks to just stamp Valmet on them and then just import them as Valmets?

Only 2 Valmets are not prohib - you could make a ton of AK's and stamp them Valmet M76 and they'd still be prohib.

You can't just stamp something "Valmet". It has to be made by Valmet and that company no longer exists

Valmet actually still exists and is independent again, it was actually spun off from Metso in 2013 after a merger awhile ago:

The valmet is not really that hot compared to the modern AK. Lots of you guys will probably scream bloody gore because valmet did not chromeline their barrels.

There was a bit of controversy right now as Finland had purchased 80,000 AKs and ammo from East Germany at bargain price back in the day, to equip their reserves force and stock pile. They now want to get rid of them because the Finnish military found that they could not use the corrosive E. German ammo in their valmets without chromelined barrels.

Are you saying there is yet hope for new Valmets to hit the market?

Why do you need chrome lined barrels to fire corrosive ammo?
