Yep, the Gallil was a nicer combo. Also, better, is the ROCC conversion upper for the M4, a longstroke piston replacing the infamous powder blow in the system of the M4. This thing just wont jam. A bit expensive though at $1500, but it will save your life. contact
bobspc3@earthlink.net I believe if you want info on this. I believe it is for LE right now, but maybe it has changed.
The Galil is reliable, but it's HEAVY. If you're going to be out in the desert for a long time without reinforcements or air superiority, it's a good choice. But that's just not the situation Israel is in.
For urban combat, the M16 is a much better choice.
For storming a building, I would assume a short bullpup would be the best choice.
