Introducing the superb Century Arms Golani Sporter, a semi-auto rifle that embodies a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. This remarkable piece is a civilian variant of the revered Galil, a design birthed from the creative minds at Israel's state-owned IMI and inspired by the robust, iconic design of the AK-47. For those who have a soft spot for the Galil but are unwilling to break the bank, this Golani Sporter is a dream come true.
This firearm finds itself in good condition, with some signs of prior use and handling such as minor scuffs and scratches. The bore is bright with an excellent overall condition - a clean, mirror finish with no visible signs of wear. It features sharp lands and grooves, testament to its excellent rifling. However, note that the bolt assembly does not seem to be the original.
Manufactured by Century Arms International (CAI) and chambered in .223 Remington caliber, the Golani Sporter is a high-performing piece. Its gas piston operation system is celebrated for its reliability and durability in extreme conditions. The parkerized finish, a technique employed to protect the steel surface from corrosion and increase its resistance to wear, makes it perfect for rugged use, while the polymer handguard and pistol grip, skeletonized folding stock add to its appeal. It also includes a sling, the original bolt carrier, and a UTG rail system for your convenience.
With a 30 +1 round capacity, this semi-automatic rifle is designed for extended periods of use. The barrel length is a comfortable 18", and it is equipped with a flash hider and threaded barrel features. The sight is drift and height adjustable at the front, with an integrated rear sight that has flip up apertures. Four 30rd mags are also included in the package, although note that one of the steel magazines does not seat correctly.
The Golani Sporter is a true reflection of American craftsmanship, having been produced and sold mainly in the United States. Its unique blend of design and functionality is sure to appeal to both collectors and shooting enthusiasts.
