Hi all,

I was hoping somebody could help me identify the rifle used by benicio tel toro's character in the movie 'the way of the gun'? I have a short clip from the movie showing the rifle here:

Thanks very much in advance

yeah, thats a Galil made by IMI. but, Springfield Armory here in the U.S. makes one in .223 and .308 thats 3 times as reliable.
