I can't find it right now, but Barrett has put out a new improved semi auto sniper weapon. It's 25MM... that's right... 1 inch in diameter, shoulder fired, 5 round magazine. :eek: :eek:

It's the same caliber as the cannon on a F15 Eagle & most Soviet aircraft.

The ad was talking about lethal ranges of 2000 Meters.


I gotta find the clip ad for it.

***Edit***

Found it!!!!

techincally Pangquan that's not an antitank rifle. The .50 cal sniper rifle was designed for a couple of purporses. First the larger round has more velocity and penetration power at greater ranges so you can kill people better, ****her out. It's also designed to penetrate and defeat light armor. A couple of well placed shots may take out something like an APC, but more likely you'llbe shooting to stop lighter vehicles like choppers, jeeps and other soft skinned vehicles. It's extremely efficient at stopping technicals in third world countries as well.
