A: Now.

To fifty or not to fifty, that is the question

As a kid, I got to shoot one of the first Barrett M82 rifles built.   It was fun to shoot.   While the Model 82 has changed into its current iteration the M82a1 is still a highly sought after rifle.  

Most gun guys would take one in a heartbeat if it weren’t for the hefty price tag.   If you fall into this category you should consider checking out the Armalite AR-50.   While it is a single action (a bolt action with no magazine) it is easy to operate and probably the most affordably price .50 cal on the market.   It is well built and comes with a sturdy GG&G bipod. 

With the price point being what it is, they are often hard to get and typically disappear out of the store pretty quickly.   

It just so happens that we have one in the shop, so come down and check it out before it goes to a good home.
