| the brakes on those Barrets do what they are supposed to , they are quite easy to shoot, just don't stand where the brake dumps the gasses,

| The 50 caliber was one of my favorites back in the day. I just wish the Army would have been more concerned about our hearing. Those little ear plugs in the plastic case just didn't cut it. Maybe that's why I wear a hearing aid today and walk around saying "what" all the time.

| I put 6 rds through a single-shot Barret & have been hit harder by a 12ga, but that was prone in a field. Holding that thing & shooting from the hip  IIRC it weighed something like 24lbs

| I’ve been behind and to the side of a Barrett muzzle brake. That hurt. |
