Tried a search and only came up with something in the archives. I saw this on youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr7q7kDCTZ0 I don't see folders but I wonder if they will be an option. Odd that they would add all kinds of rails but loose the folder. |

This! 
Oh please oh please I hope they offer the 7.62x39 and 7.62x51 versions, in both ACE and original Galil configurations.

I do not see the option for the ACE-N to have the original Galil folding stock. Is that what you were saying? Because that is the configuration in which I would prefer it. |

Show up to Bullpup Shoot 2014, we might just have some very cool IWI samples there this year.  Can I shoot the UK 59 too? LOL, it won't be at the shoot.
Unfortunately the State Dept took too long on the paperwork so it doesn't look like we will have an IWI ACE at Bullpup Shoot 2014. On the upside, we will have a Negev 5.56mm full auto LMG there! 
(Manticore was able to help secure 8,000 rounds of belted ammo for it for a LEO demo this week, so we all get to play with it at Bullpup Shoot 2014!  )

Import paperwork. It takes a long time to bring a sample gun in from overseas. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Quoted:

I can't imagine why IWI US does not have a few ACE's for law enforcement demos. Import paperwork. It takes a long time to bring a sample gun in from overseas. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile IWI US has been around for while. |

[edited] Nevermind... I guess Poorman knows more than IWI US on how to run a business and how importation of weapons work... 
Asshollyness aside, what I meant was that I would have thought that one of the first things IWI US would have done was to import some ACE and Tavor models for LE demos. But, I guess they wanted to concentrate fully on US Tavor production. They don't even show the new Micro UZI on their site anymore. |
I'd say I'm going to hold out for a traditional pattern, but I'm going to take a wild guess that they either dumped the tooling and don't make them that way anymore, or just won't offer it.
ETA: Damn, just saw MAC post that the originals are no longer made. Guess it'll be the ACE. And look on the bright side, anyone with an original will probably retain it's value. |

Sweet. Wish they would release factory SBR. I wonder what that SB15 stock is like... |

What we think if as the galil is a 30 year old design to the israelis. The Galil ACE is the galil, and has been in use by Israel and many other countries for some years. We just havent had them available here until now. It is kind of like the M16A2 of 1983 vs the M4 carbine of 2014. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
