Overview
Built around former Israeli Military Galil parts and assembled in the USA, this rifle is positioned for shooters who want a legally compliant 5.56 platform with a military lineage. American Tactical mills new receivers from 4140 CDA steel, completes finishing and final assembly in South Carolina, and fits the gun with a new U.S.-made barrel. It ships with a Tapco 30-round magazine and is also described as using original Galil magazines and parts, giving it a practical setup for range use or field carry where a compact 13-inch barrel is preferred.

- The product description emphasizes U.S. assembly and compliance, but it does not provide details on weight, overall length, or other handling characteristics.
