Usage and order of "galore": an adjective, but looks like an adverb

It is common to put adverbs of manner after a direct object. But is it grammatically correct to put an adjective after noun? As in:

  1. Since then there have been reports, inquiries and guidance galore.

Why can't it be like this, if it's an adjective modifying a noun:

  1. Since then there have been galore reports, inquiries and guidance.

Also, I am not sure whether this is a postpositive adjective or a reduced phrase adjective.

I have Googled and but couldn't get the actual answer of it.
