50 BMG Ammo

[djmay71]

Hey Ryan- I'm pricing the cost of feeding a potential new firearm, but I couldn't find any 50 BMG on the website? Am I not looking hard enough?

 

[twistedbrilliance]

If you need to worry about cost then you probably can't afford it...

TSE had good prices for .50 BMG. PMC for $5 a round if you bought a min of 200 rounds. Smoking deal.

From TSE's product page (http://theshootingedge.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6_68&products_id=1292)

smooth, reliable feeding in all types of semi-auto

(bolding mine)

I want to see the handgun that shoots .50BMG. (But wouldn't want to shoot it. )

Elephant derringer, of course.

You're right- I can't afford a 50 BMG, however I did want to know what kind of money a person would need to invest in to have and fire one of those puppies.

Also those 50 BMG handguns are defintely WTF status.

Yeah, nice handguns, but try to find a holster for one!

I didn't think a cylinder could handle those kinds of pressures.... that can't be real.

 

[Kveldulf]

Adds a whole new dimension to the phrase "limp wristing". No matter how you hold the gun before shooting, you'll be limp wristing after.

And no, technicolour yawn, that's a S&W that's been photoshopped.

And yes, I am anal retentive enough to add a "u" to "technicolor" even though, as a trademarked name, the original spelling is correct.

I see you changed your post.

I hope you can still get mil-surp .50cla ammo for us John.

G&A years ago did a short column insert on a .50 BMG chambered single-shot pistol.

Apparently the muzzle blast and flash when firing it indoors (!) is epic.

Sort of the handgunner's equivalent of standing on the deck of the Iowa when they fired the main gun(s).

[jonythebeast]

Any AP .50 BMG?

 

[McCormick-Hunter]

[taz1977]

The ammo is cheaper then then the .338 Lapua mag

 

[taz1977]

I'm thinking of getting one just for that reason
