IWI: Galil Ace Pistol, 11.5", w/SB Tactical Brace, 7.62x51mm

The Galil ACE SB features a side-folding Stabilizing Brace, produced for IWI US by SB Tactical LLC, designers and manufacturers of the original SB15 and SB47 Pistol Stabilizing Braces. Originally designed as a means for persons with limited mobility to operate and fire the AR-15 pistol, the custom adaptation of the Stabilizing Brace to the Galil ACE pistol takes the application of large frame pistol control and stabilization to a new level. With the IWI brace’s unique sidefolding feature, the Galil ACE SB can be fired with or without the brace extended depending on the shooters need. With the brace in the folded position, storage space required in your safe or range/rifle bag is minimized.

In all other respects, the Galil ACE GAP51SB is identical to the GAP51.

The modernized Galil ACE is based upon the reliable mechanism of the original Galil assault rifle first developed by IMI in the late 1960’s. Drawing inspiration from the legendary Russian AK-47 and the Finnish Valmet RK 62, the IWI Galil ACE has been continuously improved over the last 40 years, resulting in today’s extremely reliable and highly accurate Galil ACE.

 

Improvements made since the original Galil was first developed include:

• Charging handle (reciprocating) moved to the left side of the milled steel receiver allowing for weak hand operation
• Weight reduction with the use of modern polymers
• LR/SR25 magazine compatibility
• Full length 2-piece Picatinny style top rail
• Picatinny style tri-rail forearm with built in, slide on/ off rail covers with pressure switch access
• Fully adjustable iron sights with Tritium front post
