The IMI Galil #COD players know it as the CR 56 #Amax, is a family of Israeli-made automatic rifles chambered for the 5.56×45mm #NATO and 7.62×51mm NATO cartridges. Originally designed by #YisraelGalili and #YakovLior in the late 1960s, the Galil was first produced by the state-owned Israel #Military Industries and is now exported by the privatized #Israel #Weapon Industries.
