And you thought .50 was big?
What a beast. Need a squad to carry the ammo.

Guys, look closely at this thing.
RIFLE WEIGHT 33 LBS
If that won't stretch yer neck and shrink yer cock as your core slides down your spine humping the bitch, I don't know what will. And that's JUST THE DAMN RIFLE.
I'll bet the goddamn ammo weighs in at nearly pound a round.
This isn't providing "LIGHT FIGHTERS" with anything except more hernias.
Sure, it looks nice, and I'd be first in line to shoot the shit out of some Rag position with one, but issue me one? NO WAY. Gimmie an M-4A1 instead.

SHIIIIIIIT!!!
That is light! Hell, try humping the 90mm with full combat load. Been there, done that! Even the Carl G is/was heavier with the rifle and ammo. When we got the Carl G, we thought we were all in heaven.

Ranger Spartan,
I will make the assumption that it will be a NFA-restricted "Destructive Device" if it was available to the civilian market. I don't believe that it will be available for civilian purchase.
Now, if you were to get your Class III FFL and could get your hands on one to demo to LE agencies, thats a whole different story.

Even if it is classified as a "destructive device" it will only be a $5 transfer tax. You won't need a class III FFL to own it just register it through the ATF. The Barrett does not require a tax stamp.bberkley wrote:Ranger Spartan,
