I apologize in advanced for this "nub" question. But it is my understanding that the powder burn in a 308 cartridge will be incomplete in an 11.5 inch barrel. Is this correct?

Erik, You are correct on all counts. A typical .308 round does not have complete powder burn until between 18" and 20" depending on the load. You will get a good muzzle flash out of a 11.5" barrel. The round will not have the velocity you get out of a longer barrel.

Erik, this is correct Sir. It will create just a bit more muzzle flash and blast and have a few hundred fps slower velocity. About 350fps loss compared to a 16 inch barrel.

Is this civilian legal ?

Yes, it most certainly is Michael. Same classification as a standard pistol.

I ask because on this description it says .308 that excepts 7.62 nato but on the website I see absolutely nothing about .308 on this

Based on the ultra reliable original Galil Rifle, the world famous modernized Galil ACE Pistol is proving to be just as impressive as its predecessors! The milled steel receiver houses an unfailing closed rotating bolt long stroke gas piston action and it accepts standard LR-308/SR25 magazines.

The picatinny tri-rail forearm features slide on/off rail covers with pressure switch access points for your accessories. Get one of the most dependable and highly accurate tactical styled pistols on the market today, get a Galil Ace!
