Thanks for the replies....the latama sight does not even post a price.....but its some beautiful horn.

I really do not know much about horn at all...I just want to replace the broken horn scales with some nice color horn like this.....lol right.

None of those suppliers have the Brazilian horn.

Thanks for the links anyway.

I got a old fixer upper 11 "GC CO." Italian manual picklock...anyone know of a source for that nice colored Brazilian horn scales

Awesome.

Just for curiosity sake,where do you but Galil parts/kits? Sounds interesting 8) I don't know anymore where you can buy a Galil parts kit.....they have not been available in quite a while....a dealer called federal arms corp used to sell them....but they were an outrageous price...by the time you b...

I think you spelled it right the first time,I just was seeing double at the time. :lol: Yeah I just question if a Galil mag would be any more plentiful and if so any less expensive. I may just say heck with it and buy the mags specifically for this rifle. They would be new and I would be more comfo...

They are called "Lightening marks" as I mentioned in my previous post....the milled receiver AK-47...Valmet....Galil....have the "lightening marks" My milled receiver Bulgarian SA-93 and SLR95 have the lightening marks also. :) Cool. I learn something every time I come here. Ahhh "lightENing marks....

I don't know about the Golani [specifically] but almost all AK deriveitives accept AK mags. Take one of yours to a gun dealer and compare :idea: The Golani is more of a "Galil" copy and a 223 so it is a little different. I'm no AK expert so I will do a little research :wink: (I know you know this,j...

In Vagrant's first pic you can see an odd "milled-out" place in front of the mag,same as mine,the only thing I can assume is that this is a spot where extra weight can be removed. It has no other real benefit. Love the wood on that Valmet. I love my folding stock but I prefer the rifle with the sto...

I got it after the first, of several, assault weapon bans, it was the only thing left in stock :lol: It is now, "worth more than I paid for it" :wink: Yeah......our local gunshop had a brand new Valmet on the wall for yrs...it had dust all over it....I wen in there one day and looked up to see it a...

Valmet made both types...milled and stamped....I prefer the milled myself......nice rifle Vagrant.

I have one, it IS a GREAT gun :idea: Wiki [incorretly] claims they have a stamped and riveted receiver :? Other sources [and my gun] assert they are Forged and milled :wink: I'll believe "a gun in the hand" over any website :idea: The M76 they show in the picture has a stamped receiver.....I prefer...

Vagrant wrote:Valmet, actually supplied the first Galil receivers, until Israeli production was "up to speed'

The Valmet M76 was made in Finland.....and I have always wanted one.

Nice knife. 8) The Golani looks like a Galil...accept no lightening marks on the receiver....nice rifle. :thumbsup: Thanks. I always loved the Galil but can't afford a real one.This jewel cost less than half and it has some nice features,the barrel is a little heavier and has a milled receiver. Her...
