There's a bit of confusion out there about the Galil and it's identical cousin the R4.
The ARM is the "basic" rifle with a bipod and a bayonet lug. The loaded 35 round magazine is 1.8 lb., the 50 rounder 2.3 lb.
That gives us an 18.1" barreled gun in 5.56 that weighs 11.3 lb. loaded with 35-rounds.
The AR is almost identical. The wire-cutting bipod and the folding carry handle are deleted, but the 18.1" barrel is retained.
This is a 10.4 lb. rifle loaded with 35-rounds. It's the "police and support" version.
The SAR is the short barreled version of the AR with no bayonet lug. Vehicle crews, staff and specialty troops get this one.
This is a 13.1" barreled rifle weighing 10 lb. with 35-rounds.
The Vektor made guns are:
The R4 is the same* as the ARM. The R5 is the same* as the SAR.
*- Yes, there are differences, but the basic configurations is what we're on about here.
Yes, the Galil is very heavy for what you get.
