New York man wows at Virginia gun rally with 5-foot sniper rifle

NY POST ^ | 1/20/20

[right way right]

Huh?
Stupid reporters.

[SuperLuminal]

"The price of the gun with the scope was $16,000"

Got a new one in 1996 for $2700...

[dainbramaged]

It’s the same round as far as I know.

[Fido969]

Or he was a hustler.

[Scrambler Bob]

“Bullets the size of bananas!!!” he shrieked.
= = =

Maybe the size of his banana.

[liberalh8ter]

Wow. I don’t remember the make or model, only that this one looked like the one in the picture. You should check the value of yours now...you probably have a nice return on that investment!

[crz]

I like the 20mm lahti.

A real booger to haul around though. But you can reach out and touch someone a LOOOOONG way off.

All of you would NOT believe how many are out there.

Hell, there’s a few flak 88’s out there.

[Capt. Tom]

It’s the same round as far as I know.

I fired that 50 cal. machine gun over 60 years ago.

As I remember you could switch from automatic to individual rounds.

When shooting individual rounds, you didn't pull a trigger you used both thumbs to depress a butterfly mechanism to fire the single shot.

It was very accurate. - Tom

aw shucks, I’m from Appalachia it’s just a jed Clampett model squirrel..

[Pearls Before Swine]

Was it loaded?

[cork]

I would wager that as owner of a shooting range he probably has an FFL.

[ssschev]

“This range owner brought a whole ass Barrett 50. cal, amazing,” wrote user @alec_sears.”

I am so glad he didn’t bring a half-added Barrett “50. cal.” How the hell would he get a battleship into Richmond?

[Randy Larsen]

I wish you would have asked us for help. I would have donated!

[Incorrigible]

I’m sure he avoided New Jersey and stuck with transit through Pennsylvania. After that???

[Lurkinanloomin]

I-81 only crosses through a bit of Maryland.

[momincombatboots]

Hubbys boom stick blew my hair back. Funniest thing I ever experienced shootin. In the army I shot rh. I am truly cross dom left eyed right hander, so I was experimenting that day by trying to get my left eye lined up in his scope.
I quit and went straight iron sights.

[JamesP81]

That guy has some physical endurance if he can hump that around all day.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

How did he legally get through Maryland???
.........................................
Could have gone around the Peoples’ Republic of Maryland by going through PA and WV.

Size of ketchup bottles!😱😆

“Around 20 years ago, I had the chance to buy a Barrett, serial number 2 for $2000. Even back then that was a steal.”

Same time frame had a chance to buy a Barrett and 1000 rounds of .50 for $3000. Same thing, no dough.

Kick my self sometimes for not figuring out a way to buy it.
