The IMI Galil is a family of military firearms that first entered service in 1972, designed by Yisrael Galili and Yakov Lior in the late 1960s. Recognizable by its flip-up aperture sights on the dust cover, vertical charging handle, rectangular one-piece handguard, skeletonized metal folding stock and a gas block with straighter profile. Based on the Rk62 and similarly utilizing an AK-style gas piston system, it has been developed into several variants, such as:
- Galil AR - the original 5.56mm assault rifle with slightly-curved slimmer rectangular handguard. (Danbooru post #1293721)
- Galil ARM - light machine gun with notably blockier wooden handguard, carry handle and a "wire-cutter" bipod. (Danbooru post #1333214)
- Galil SAR "Glilon" - shorter variant of Galil AR. Smallest one is the Galil MAR. (Danbooru post #1985402)
- Galil 7.62 - battle rifle chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO. Notice the thicker, straight box magazine. Unlike curved ones belong to the three 5.56mm counterparts. (Danbooru post #6409080)
- Galil Galatz - distinctively equipped with a scope and bipod for sniper/designated marksman use. Has (Danbooru post #6003226)
