Barrett M82A1-K1 .50BMG $9299.99 + S&H at CDNN

I've seen a couple for sale here lately, in the $1500-2000 range. Just sayin'.

Yea there have been a couple of good deals today alone. If it was not for the fact that I am about to buy two guns for my wife I would pick one up. I guess I am just going to have to wait for now. I also need to go ahead a buy another Leupold Mark4 before I even buy the .50. No use in having a gun and no scope to go on it.
 
During WWII our fighter aricraft could "bust" many tanks with just the 8 .50 BMG's that they had (on full"convergence") using AP loads (which are still legal for .50 BMG Loads).

Think about them blowing off antennas, hatches, protruding MG's, tank treads, etc ... thus rendering the tank "busted"(without actually having to penetrate the armored core).

Modern day "War Hogs" did pretty much the same thing in Iraq (and more!) with .30 mm canon fire ... wrecking all exterior protrusions (including the main battle gun!)

.50 BMG at nearly 100 years of age is still a really, really potent round

Tanks? How about sinking ships?

they are sweet, but I just do not understand why it cost $10k, maybe Glock could make one for $3k and it last forever lol
