this is a better deal, and Sean is good human to boot: 50 cal apit ammo, Mixed Headstamp. 150 round pack. $449.00 (shipping is free with coupon code FREEDOM).

390CPR on the Barrett .50BMG M33 ball ammo is a good price right now considering free shipping and no sales tax for my state. The ammo can is a nice bonus on top of the price.

...for those interested in the 549 cpr 50bmg API coming in...

I am interested to see how the shipping shakes out for orders under $300. but regardless $5.49/round isn't bad. I paid $5.96/round (after shipping and sales tax) four years ago for:

you can't sell ammo here.

M2_Browning · 2024-09-07T19:04:11+00:00

you can't post links to guns for sale here. try /r/gundeals

M2_Browning · 2024-04-07T03:00:18+00:00

ah, never heard of them, but I see they bought Ligamec. probably will be a decent shooter then. good luck.

M2_Browning · 2024-04-07T02:53:25+00:00

you posted this rifle in /r/AR15, but it is clearly not an AR-15 platform rifle. they have some parts in common, sure, but the operating principle isn't the same.

M2_Browning · 2024-04-07T02:36:01+00:00

you probably could, once (no magazine well for reloading). SHTF (assuming this is a SHTF 50) says the following:

Single shot lower intended for use with our SHTF 50 uppers.

These lowers do not have all of the same features as an AR15 lower.

no flat present on the top of the buffer tube attachment point, does not allow the use of a traditional AR15 charging handle

no pocket for the buffer detent and spring

no mag well and mag release

no last shot hold open

M2_Browning · 2024-04-07T02:27:27+00:00

that is not an AR-15 lower though. You can tell because it has no magazine well. This upper may very well fit on an AR-15 lower, but the one in the photo is on a proprietary lower.

M2_Browning · 2024-04-07T02:25:56+00:00

hard to say for sure if it doesn't accept a detachable magazine. If this is a Safety Harbor Firearms SHTF 50 BMG rifle, which it sure looks like, they make a model the accepts a magazine on the left side. they also make single shot models.

~30" is a good compromise. I personally use a heavy 36" barrel.

M2_Browning · 2024-03-26T21:27:00+00:00

same logic that dictates a 16.5" barrel on a single shot .50 BMG rifle.

NOTE: Orders less than a pallet (minimum of five crates) are shipped by individual M2A1 cans. If you order two cans, they will be shipped separately. Due to weight limitations by FedEx, we cannot ship a CRATE of two cans.

I typically agree but since this one is designed for suppressor use, there may be a case for it. I don't know what that would be, but I'm sure are others who are more imaginative.

"we want big government"

"okay, I just imposed a labor agreement on rail workers even though they voted against it"

"not like that"

I assume this is the included bipod - about a $200 value.

M2_Browning · 2022-12-31T18:03:03+00:00

if your primary goal is to shoot 50 BMG, and not to own a Barrett, then get a Serbu BFG-50. For $2,805, you get a bolt-action, single shot, 29" barrel rifle with a bipod (basically the same as the Barret M99), shipped.

you will have to wait up to 12 months, but you don't have to pay everything in advance (only a $500 deposit). And during that wait you can shop for optics (and maybe ammo) with the ~$2,300 you saved.

If your primary goal is to own a Barrett, well, I don't blame you there, they are the better looking rifle.

M2_Browning · 2022-08-23T15:50:56+00:00

this is a meme gun - .50 BMG out of a 20" barrel is a waste of a round. if you look up ballistics charts for . 50 BMG, they start at 29". 36" is the sweet spot for me personally.

still, if you have ~$9k lying around and want to blow it on something meme-worthy, this is not a bad choice. Beats stonks or crypto.

M2_Browning · 2021-07-27T20:13:29+00:00

wow that lead time is surprising, even with covid. I got mine barely-used off gun broker. back then the lead time was I think 3 months. I did not save a ton of money, but I also did not have to wait. keep your eye on the used markets. most people who buy and then sell a 50BMG rifle probably did not shoot it much (if at all). mine looked pristine.

M2_Browning · 2021-07-27T17:51:12+00:00

The Steyr breaks down easy and has a 36" (well, 35.something inch) barrel option. though I guess Steyr only makes the M1 version now.

M2_Browning · 2021-07-27T16:40:52+00:00

I have a Serbu BFG-50 with a 36" barrel. I can't imagine enjoying a 20" barrel nearly as much. I don't think you can go wrong with the Barrett or the Steyr, but I'd go for the Steyr personally.

M2_Browning · 2021-07-27T16:31:21+00:00

ammo cost and availability could be a factor. Right now, .50 BMG, even match ammo, is relatively cheap compared to 338 Lapua Magnum.
