[G3N3R4L]

i want to shoot it.


i couldnt even imagine what it would do to whatever it hit.

[omega_image]

yeah a 50 cal is a bit overkill, like body flying, head exploding overkill.

^ but highly effective at shutting down thin skinned armoured vehicles at ranges in excess of 1000 yards.

[Senior]

I would use the term "read" in the loosest way when referring to the 24 Hours.

.50 in a hand gun? what a desert eagle? those shits stove pipe not to mention the recoil. id rather have a .22 then that, the calibre dosnt mean a thing if you cant hit your target. but honestly if you want that power get a sig .357 they'll punch through the armour the police and most gangsters use, and if you want somethig thats any good learn how to shoot and get a nice compact rifle like a M4 or C8 if you can afford it.

AK would give *****hs holes
but you pray and spray
you aint no pro
learn how to use yo rifle
and *****hs
they wont trifle

50 cal =

[se7en]

^^^ thats a sweet gun. can u even shoot those at the range, and arent bullets like 15-20 bux each.

[jenai]

Now is time to call for taxing bullets!!!!!!!!!!

Fer relative sizes of bullets, see .50 BMG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:nuts:

Here's a TAC-50 Sniper Rifle: McMillan TAC-50 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This type of bullet is better for getting rid of materiel than personnel: Anti-materiel rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The sniper/antimateriel rifle pictured in a previous entry to this thread is a French Hecate II by PGM which has been in service since 1993.

Though it is heavier than the 11 kg TAC-50 by 2.8 kilos (6 lbs 6 oz).

[jenai]

Correction: it's a Steyrhs 50 cal, not the PGM Hecate II or Barrett which is depicted below.:evil:


Apologies for the size!:S

The actual Steyr AMR IWS 2000 Anti-Materiel Weapon, which is usually used to knock materiel out not personnel:

at first glance i thought it was an anti-aircraft gun!

These guns are popguns compare to ak-ak guns: Anti-aircraft warfare - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You'd have to go to full-auto to score a hit, but the anti-materiel guns are usually good for 1-5 shots at very long distances (over 1000 metres), and aircraft fly higher than 300 metres which is the most accurate distance for 50 calibres.

Even if you full auto an AMR and have a 50-round clip, it might jam after the barrell gets hot from firing the whole clip, maybe around the 47th clip.

As well, the recoil is worse for FA since it fires bullets at 1450 metres per second. Also IWS 2000s can only take five round clips.

It's doubtful it bring down an aircraft but it could take out a lot of targets, including personnel if close as 300 metres.

Though I think a 15.2 armor piercing sabotte is overkill for sniping.

^^ NinjaSage is back guys..


Anyway. I read the 24 the other day. I also was pretty shocked by the type of weapon that was ceased from that guy. Like honestly - that is one serious military/secret agency weapon... and yet someone in Vancouver had full possession to one. Wtf? Now I see that you can never know when another serial sniper case might happen these days...
