The IMI Galil is a 5.56x45mm assault rifle series based on the AK/Valmet series of assault rifles named for its designer Yisrael Galili (born Yisrael Balashnikov). It is also produced in slightly modified forms by Lyttelton Engineering Works (now Denel Land Systems) of South Africa as the Vektor R4 family of rifles, Indumil of Colombia, and EMEC of Myanmar as the MA-1. The Galil design was further developed by Israel Weapons Industries into the Galil ACE.
Please note when adding movies to make sure of the variant and caliber of the Galil. Often Galil AR and SAR's are simply labeled as Galil ARMs. Identify a Galil by the barrel length and or the existence of a bipod. Galil ARM's have a bipod under the barrel, while SARs and ARs do not. Galil SARs have shorter barrels then ARs.
A 7.62x51mm Galil of any variant should be placed under the "Galil 7.62" section.

Galil 7.62
The 7.62mm (.308 Winchester, or 7.62x51mm NATO) variants of the Galil are the same as the 5.56mm versions, except chambered in a different round. These rifles generally have longer barrels, bayonet lugs, shortened trigger guard and a straight, thicker box magazine. The magazines are almost identical to M14 magazines, which were previously used before a new magazine was developed (the M14 magazines were all converted to fit the Galil) that featured a checkered pattering to them and held 25 rounds.
