The Galil is mainly found towards the end of the campaign on the chapters "Payback" and "Redemption" with many different attachments

The Galil can be purchased at level 20 for 2000. The weapon has a 35 round magazine, medium damage, and low recoil. The Galil's ironsights are regarded as clear, so many players don't find the need to use any sort of sight attachments. Instead, because of its moderately high damage, long range and low recoil, the Suppressoris a commonly-used attachment. Another useful decision would be the Extended Mag, giving it 50 rounds instead of the usual 35. With such a large magazine, using the Galil becomes similar to using alight machine gun with the advantage of assault rifle ADS and movement speed. These characteristics make the Galil a popular weapon.

A disadvantage of the Galil is that the Galil has an awkward, almost light machine gun-like reload time that can become a pain during heated firefights. When an ACOG scope is equipped and the Galil is fired automatically, the Galil suddenly recoils randomly to the upper right, which at long ranges puts it at a disadvantage against other weapons.

Burst firing a Galil makes it almost perfectly accurate with every shot fired which coupled with the low recoil during full auto makes the Galil a superior mid range weapon. Galil users should always watch out for SMG's which often overpower the Galil with their high rate of fire.

The Galil can be obtained from the Mystery Box in the Zombies game mode. The Galil also seems to have a higher rate of fire than the multiplayer one. When Pack-A-Punched, its name changes to the "Lamentation." This version features a Red Dot Sight customized with a reticule.
