I rarely run into any good deals but I finally got lucky. I've been wanting a Galil for a long time, I could never justify the Action Arms and Magnum Research prices. I found this Springfield imported model 710 that was not in the ban configuration, it was practically brand new with cosmoline on the FCG and various nooks and crannies.
The gentleman I purchased the rifle from wasn't into guns and inherited the rifle from his father. Purchase price was $1,200
. I asked about the muzzle device, tritium sights, and stock. He told me that's how the rifle came when his father purchased the rifle which is strange to me. The barrel is 1/7 twist and the bayo/bipod lug is the only item that would let you know this is a ban model. Did I get a early import ban rifle that wasn't molested other than the bayo/bipod lugs?
