Gen 2 Ace stock removal

Quick question...can anyone tell me how to remove the stock "knuckle" from a Gen 2 ACE. I have a single pin and tried to remove it like I did on my ACE Gen 1 but not one bit of movement. Does it have some kind of adhesive? Any help will be appreciated.

Dust cover fitment

Not sure if this is a dumb question but I was wondering if an ACE dust cover with optic rail will fit on a classic Galil. I have a JRA gallant.

Hillbilly firearms ARM build finally finished!

After about 6 and a half months from Jeff receiving my parts, I now have a functioning rifle. With the KNS piston adjusted it has almost zero recoil.

ALG trigger in Gen2 556?

Looking to see if it's possible to put an ALG AGT-UL in a Gen 2 556. The ALG and IWI websites say they are compatible with Gen1 7.62x39. Has anyone tried it? Is there another ALG UL model that works or works better?

Galil Cheek Rest

After paying $12 each for cheek rests I took the advice about using irrigation tubing. Home Depot sells short lengths for .97. Perfect fit. Easy to replace.

Trade Question

So I have a Gen 1 8" 7.62x39 ACE. It's fine. I'm not going to act like I love it, I certainly don't HATE it. But I just don't LOVE it. I have other short AK's I shoot and enjoy more.

I was considering putting it up for a Gen 1 308 ACE. Would that be fair, for either side? I figured 1:1 assuming the add-ons are about equal. I kind of lost track on what Gen 1 308 ACES are worth.

More info on why- I'm struggling to find a "battle rifle" I like a lot. G3's are a NO (many reasons, I just don't like them, no hate.) SCARs are too much money for what they are IMO. FAL's are cool, but I feel if it's coming down to an FAL vs. a 308 ACE, the ACE makes the most sense. So I wanted to try one out and see if it finally gets me hooked. I know I could do an AR, that's the most practical and cheapest, but I DGAF, much like G3's I don't love AR's, and if I don't love the rifle I'll not shoot it much, and then it's useless.

Build Q: Virg. Barrel and Receiver. Headspace way too tight. Shims?

Hey all,

Long story short, I have a virgin phosphate barrel and a virgin ATI receiver. Upon test fitting for headspace, it's way too tight. Not able to lap it into position.

Looking at shiming the barrel, is there someone who makes the shims?

Thanks y'all.

Maybe put a strike industry angled grip on the front for more control?

Question: how much should I expect to pay for someone’s ACE 5.56 rnl OEM plastic grip?

Cannot find anything on GAFS. Trying to look them up, all I can find is people trying to sell their KNS plastic delete kits or trying to buy a KNS delete themselves.

Don’t want to throw up a WTB post without knowing how much I’d be potentially spending.

JRA Gallant Question

Has anyone had any problem running .223 in the JRA gallant? I was explicitly told to not run anything other than 556 PMC x tac since it’s a nato round…. Also was told ABSOLUTLEY no steel case? I’d figure steel case would be better to run in anything older. Anyone have any experience or run into trouble running other loads?

New Red dot mounting solution for original IMI Galils

Thought I'd share. Might not be an ideal solution but I'm glad any company is giving the original Galil some love with new products.
