The Barret is one awesome weapon,when someone has iton display at the shows,we cant even handle it,its usually set up on its own table with a velvet rope around it with the please dont touch signs.It probably has never been used in committing a crime so hopefully it will be left alone.koop171;2288244; said:

I believe the .50 cal round has never been used in a crime here in the US. Go figure.

Thats not why there is an interest in the gun grabbing brownies to ban them..They claim that these are made to "shoot down airplanes" and are using this and "terrorism" as their excuse. If there is any particular gun type that will be banned or tightly restricted in the very near future it will be these... You can mark my words on this.. You want one I'd get your loan today....
Here is their own crap straight from them....

I hear yah man. I heard that one of the reasons they want to ban them is because they think people will shoot through train tanker cars carrying hazardous material.

That isn't true.
Back in 1995 a Denver cop was shot and killed with a .50 caliber. It was big news then. The bullet went through part of the engine block before hitting him while pulling into an Albertson's parking lot.
If you do a search, you can find a few examples of .50 calibers being used in crimes. Not a lot, but it is a relatively rare firearm.
