    I've been trying to sell mine for a while. New never used.
    Also the cheek rest sides back and forth to allow room for the charging handle.
    I'll sell you mine for $75 shipped if you're ok with the color. Another $25 for the piece on the bottom if you want it. I paid $150 for it 6 months ago :(

    Would an amazing reason why be that the owner is a douchebag?
    Personally though, that aside, I’ve never liked their mount levers. Prefer ADM style.

    There’s not so much a story, just the way he acts on a certain ar15 forum.

    The way he acts there is one thing. The public comments he has made that are not pro-2a friendly worry me more.

    Though to be fair he more just seems weird to me in his business sense. He did some good in stopping sales to LEO and Gov't agencies who were in states that limit access to guns they sell (ie AR-15's). Basically if normal people cant have them nor can you. But then (and recently) he will come out and say he supports restricting access to things. But one can google the company and owner and decide for yourself.

    Very well said. I had forgotten about the restricting leos in banned states. Which I 150% agree with.

    Barrett won't sell or service any Gov't owned rifle, owned by the State of CA, since the 50BMG was banned.

    BTW... Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the bill that banned 50BMG. (just for the record)

    Just currious, has a crime ever been committed in the state of California where a .50 BMG was used? Has one ever been committed anywhere in the U.S.? Anything that can discharge a round of that magnitude is going to be heafty and large, I just can't see a crook trying to lug one around.

    No... a 50 has never been used in a crime anywhere in the US.
    You're points are all valid. They are, exactly the points we made in oppsition to the bill.

    But the other side was screaming that you can shoot down an airplane with a 50 (not kidding).

    You just can't even make up the stupid hippy liberal bullshit these people believe in this State.

    There have been quite a few instances of a 50cal being used. Quite a few not really being many at all....but still is more than none. Here is just one of them.
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/arch...r-rifle/e780e7cd-a0a2-4c2a-8574-cb12b706ffca/

    The guys at Waco also used them. Theres also been some robberies involving them.

    All though not violent crimes theres also been a few people caught doing straw purchases with them. Either selling them to gangs in the US or a couple were trying to get them to the cartels.


    But the main thing is sort of like a AR ban. Long guns are used in what...4% (dont remember off the top of my head) of gun crimes? And out of those you are talking like probably <.1% involving a 50 cal (probably even less but no numbers to back it up so guessing).

    According to that article, the guy didn’t use the .50 just had it. And I’m pretty sure it wasn’t only even mentioned for the shock value of them describing how it “could cut through a manhole like butter” and take down helicopters and other shit, etc.
