The Galil SAR is an assault rifle featured in Insurgency: Sandstorm.[1]

The Galil SAR is a 2 credit rifle chambered in 5.56x45mm given to Security Gunners. It, along with the Insurgent Galil, both function as the cheapest that Security Forces will have to pay to get an effective automatic weapon. Its long range, easy to control recoil, and cheap price make the Galil a prime option for a very well-rounded rifle at any range. It performs identically to the Security's Galil, as they're basically the same platform.

Chambering the standard 5.56 round, the Galil SAR is able to kill opponents quite easily, only requiring 1-2 bullets to kill, even through protective vests. The Galil SAR fires at a very controllable 632 RPM, making it fast enough to deal with targets efficiently as well as maintaining recoil and its magazine capacity. The Galil SAR's rounds also fly through the air at insane speeds, besting even some of the Sniper rifles in terms of velocity. With a high velocity, these rounds also penetrate most walls with relative ease. Both of these stats combined mean that the Galil can be fielded as a pseudo-DMR to an extent.

Because the SAR is so cheap, users are able to afford quite a lot of attachments without sacrificing most of their other gear. Powerful magnification optics can be equipped to increase precision, especially since the iron sights are cluttered and comparable to the M249's iron sights. Grips are a matter of preference, whether you want to decrease the already minimal recoil with a Recoil Grip or improve the Galil's close quarters performance with an Aiming or Quick Draw grip. A Loading Grip may also be handy when using the large drum magazines.

It's also good to note that a stock Galil SAR comes pre-equipped with a 35-round magazine, with a 50 round drum as the only upgrade.

In short, the Galil's ease of use also makes it a prime choice for an equipment loadout, allowing for more credits to be used on a variety of other things. Grenades, carriers, armor, or even secondaries and gas masks can be used on modes such as Domination or FFA, where there aren't faction based weapon selection.

Trivia[]

Insurgency

  • While the weapon is mostly based on the SAR model, it also shares some features with the ARM model, such as an ARM style stock, which is more vertical than the slightly angled SAR folding stock, used to accommodate the use of a bipod.
  • The SAR is classified as an assault rifle, although its shorter barrel technically makes it a carbine.

Insurgency: Sandstorm

  • Using any of underbarrel attachments will change default handguard to railed variant.
