IWI Galil ACE GEN II 5.56 NATO 13" Barrel 30+1 GAP28

IWI Galil ACE GEN II

The IWI Galil ACE GEN II is a cutting-edge semi-automatic pistol chambered in 5.56 NATO, building on the reliable mechanics of the original Galil rifle developed by IMI in the late 1960s. Drawing inspiration from the legendary AK-47 and Finnish Valmet RK 62, this modernized version incorporates over 50 years of refinements for unmatched reliability and accuracy. With a 13-inch chrome-lined, cold hammer-forged barrel and a lightweight 7-pound, 14.8-ounce design, it offers a compact yet powerful platform for tactical and competitive use.

Key improvements over the original Galil and first-generation ACE include a left-side reciprocating charging handle for weak-hand operation, weight reduction through modern polymers, and M4 magazine compatibility (U.S.-made magazines required per 18 U.S.C § 922(r)). The GEN II enhancements feature a full-length two-piece Picatinny top rail, a free-floating M-LOK handguard with slots at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, an updated trigger profile for enhanced control, and a shorter, optimized safety throw. The folding mechanism reduces the overall length to 24 inches, enhancing portability.

This pistol is ideally suited for tactical applications, home defense, and pistol caliber carbine competitions, where its compact size, high capacity, and robust construction excel. Enthusiasts and professionals will appreciate its adaptability for optics and accessories, making it a versatile choice for dynamic shooting scenarios and those seeking a modern evolution of a proven design.
