Diaz says the .50-caliber rifle made by Barrett and other manufacturers is a menace in the hands of terrorists. "This gun is designed and built to smash things up and to set things on fire," says Diaz. "It’s a battlefield weapon. Yet it is sold as freely on the American civilian market as a .22 bolt action rifle."

Terrorists have 'em?

Then I'm gonna need one.

Just out of pure curiosity (I haven't been buying -much less shooting- in years), what do they run on average pricewise?

California is a joke. I read that despite passing all of their strict gun control measures, literally millions of its citizens break the laws by getting their guns in adjacent, gun-friendly states. And to top it off, California can do nothing about it, because they don't have the funds or the personnel to enforce their laws. So, in effect, their gun laws exist in name only.

Amen to that. I'll go one more: The Government has 'em? Then I'm gonna need one.
