What would it go for?

I have a rifle gen 1 ace in 7.62x39, barely even shot it. Has a skeleton stock from KNS, an ALG trigger, plastic delete kit, kns adjustable piston. I have all the factory parts though. What would this go for?

Stock Help

Just picked up my first Galil clone, RTI Galeo. Are there still original stocks floating around? I would like to SBR it, but I’m having trouble finding original stocks.

Lefthand friendly?

Interested in a galil ace in 545x39 only thing is I have not held one or messed with one and I realize the ch is on the left side as opposed to the right on the aks. As well as the left side safety on the grip. My question is, is running a galil ace left handed have any benefits as there is with running an ak, mainly right side charging which you loose with the ace and is the grip safety comfortable to use with the left handed trigger finger over the top of it. Is there any lefties that have one and have an opinnion on if it's better or just stick with regular aks.

Anybody SBR their Gen 1 Ace rifle in 7.62x39 to 11-12"?

Really wanting to build an AK104 with Zentico stuff (don't care if it's expensive and impractical anything AK related is now anyway), but I have a Gen 1 ace in x39 that I love and I would get rid of for the 104. However, I was also thinking of cutting mine down to be more of a substitute. Chime in. Will also be suppressed most of the time more than likely.

11.8 7.62x51

Bought this as a post deployment gift to myself, after 20 rounds through her she’s sat in the safe. Was curious what everyone thought a fair price to sell the “pistol” was being I can’t find any in stock or even used really.

Kns install question

Was anyone able to reuse the beefier stock roll pin or is having to use the thinner supplied roll pin? I would have much rather preferred to reuse the much beefier pin.

Torque Specs (GAR-14M-N)

I had to get a new set kg handguard screws. I don't have the instructions anymore, does anyone know the torque specs?

Carry handle or not?

I’ve had different galil builds over the years. Carry handles look great in photos- but I think they might be a little awkward standing prone. Thoughts from anyone who has had one long term with a carry handle?

Fresh from Cerakote/build

Picked up this 13” RnL 556 to replace my AK74 for ak matches and for all around fun stuff matches

Pro2 Customs installed folding stock, RS regulate handguard , KNS poly delete kit. PnW the unrivaled technologies muzzle brake to make it legal rifle length. Finally they ask installed a Timmney Triggers AK trigger.

Then coated in a custom tiger stripe pattern jokingly called Royal Stripe

New to Galil's

I'm new to Galils, but life has thrown me a curve ball and I finally said fuck it and bought one on a whim. Got a Gen 2 16" 5.56. I have wanted a Galil for a very long time, but never got around to it. This was a pretty good deal I think.

I am very familiar with AR15 and X95 platforms.

What are the must haves as far as mods for my Galil? Any recommendations for optic? Prefer green reticle.

Looking forward to having fun with this.

Update:

Going to the range tomorrow, but current planned mods are:

KNS Adjustable Gas Piston

ALG AGT-UL Trigger

Anyone familiar with installing Galil ALG trigger for gen 1? Is the side dust cover in the way?

Heard conflicting answers on if Detroit Ammo’s 220gr subsonic ammo would cycle/stabilize in the shorty Galil Ace 7.62s. Shot with and without a can. I’d say we’re G2G.

Can is a Lahar-30 (midsize) on Rearden Mount and muzzle device. KNS piston is installed as well. Sounds like a damn stapler lol I love it.

Viability of regular height troy irons and aimpoint duty

Hello again guys,

I got an aimpoint duty with an American Defense MFG CAS-V mount and standard folding troy iron sights (HK style). The set up feels great, but I wanted to hear your opinion on my setup. I have a midwest industries alpha stock with an adjustable cheek riser as well.

Thanks, sorry for so many questions.

Just got my Gar27 Gen 2 Ace recently and plan on putting the kns picatinny adapter, can somebody fill me in if I need to replace or take out roll pins and put in the ones that came with the kns adapter to install it?

Is it required for the gen 2 Ace? I can’t find any tutorials online aside from that one dude with a skeletonized stock. All ik is that I gotta pop that spring loaded pin out but have no clue what after that. I get it comes with instructions but I’m not too sure wtf I do with the pins
