ZAHAL – Gilboa Assault Rifle
Posted on 15. Feb, 2012 by Da Boss in Assault Rifle
More info at: www.zahal.org The Gilboa™ line was specifically developed to provide a superior modern assault rifle. The Gilboa upper and lower receivers are fully machined from aircraft grade aluminum (7075) and hard anodized, resulting in a stronger weapon with no dimensional inconsistencies. Both structural strength and reliability have been improved by the redesigning of the proven platform. The Gilboa™ is manufactured using state of the art processes ensuring quality and dependability under the most extreme conditions. All Gilboa rifles are supplied with a military grade 1:7 chrome lined barrel unless otherwise requested. Gilboa rifles are typically manufactured in 5.56 NATO. Additional available calibers: 7.62×51, 7.62×39 and 9mm.

With the chamber sealed with a round, and the dust cover closed, there’s very little sand actually getting into the mechanism. Any AR based system will still function that way.
Secondly, any piston driven system isn’t going to transfer heat into the bolt carrier.
I’m not saying that it isn’t a nice package, it’s just not anything that hasn’t been around for the last ten years or so.

I trust Zahal.org products, and the AR’s look great, but as a gunsmith and designer I have yet to test a piston AR that I would recommend, due to nearly all of them being over gassed, and have extremely high wear rates for the extractor, extractor spring, cam pin, piston return spring (especially from overheating and potential for loss of temper from extended firing), and increased wear of the upper receiver due to carrier tilt, from short stroke systems. I could write a book on the topic.

Just out of curiosity – who is the targeted market? It would be hard to believe you are going to try and sell these in the states and its near impossible to get a license in israel for a long gun – is this mil contract specific? If so whats wrong with the colts in service? Not blasting just asking.

The pistol is cool. All the rifle models are nothing new or special.
Oh, and they all need suppressors.
