Israeli Military Industries Galil Sniper rifle















A blend of the American 5.56mm cartridge and the Russian Kalashnikov rifle action, the Israeli Galil rifle was intended to provide superior durability under harsh desert environments. A limited number of telescopically sighted rifles were intended for roles as sniper and counter-sniper arms. The scope for this rifle is an auto-ranging Nimrod scope with detachable side mount. The majority of Galil sniper rifles were made in 7.62mm chambering.
