Caliber:.50 BMGMagazine:10-shot detachable box magazineBarrel:29"Weight:32.5 lbsLength:57" overallStock:Composite with Sorbothane recoil pad.Sights:Scope with ironsights.Max Effective Range1830 metersFeatures:Semi-automatic

Barrett claims 1 MOA with match ammunition


Believe it or not, the M82A1 is not that bad to shoot. The spotter actually suffers more than the shooter (Due to the muzzle brake sending the concussion out and back, usually right into the spotters face). While the potential for extreme long range shooting is there, the current military ammo is not up to the task. There is no military match ammo, and that really kills the accuracy potential of this rifle. Even with match ammo, the rifle will have a hard time holding its claimed 1 MOA, there is just too many moving parts. But, for its designed purpose as a long range hard target interdiction rifle, the M82A1 is hard to beat! Its semi-auto, 10 round capability against a light skinned APC is outstanding.






Psssssst, something tells me there will be NO pulling this out of your jacket/thunderwear when you get excited-even Dirty Harry himself could not pull that one off!!

It's nice to see that the real guns finally made it over to the west side. ;)

If I recall, isn't it over $5 per round to shoot? :shock:
