DA50 .50BMG upper!!!???

If i were in the market for a 50 cal, i don't think i would scrimp and go cheap and or not fully tested EXTENSIVELY.
I am rather sure this DA upper is nice and safe and all, but this video freaked me out a bit too much

end result bolt lodged in shoulder, meat of face blown half off
From reading the comments he was firing 50 BMG Ammo in a gun chambered for 12.7x108
 
And actually if you already got a ar 15 this thing is kinda semi non restricted, if you only have the upper its not registered. But yeah its range bound... again in nb so doesn't change anything for me.
 
I don't know why people automatically assume a .50 Bmg is the hardest thing ever to make safe. Just because it's the bigger cartridge doesn't mean it's more pressure.

A .50 bmg is ~54,800 psi
A .338 lm is ~60,900 psi

Generalized max pressures. Size doesn't automatically mean failures.
 
$1599.99

I picked up a test gun today.
Chris said that the uppers are already here but they are waiting for packaging.
Probably two weeks.
