The answer is yes.

And here is a poor boy version of 50BMG. They even make a 20 mm version.

I remember seeing one at a gun show once, it was quite the attention getter.
It was pretty cool.

Congresswoman Marjorie Greene just raffled one off. I did not win it.

Yep! If your local gun shop doesn't have them in stock, they can order them.

I was in my local firearm store a couple months ago when a guy walked in and picked up his pre-ordered .50 Cal.

I asked the dealer if I could hold it and he let me. Too damn heavy to do anything with it other than use it to lift weights or target practice.......LOL!
