I told my wife about this ban and Barrett's response. Her response: "That's awesome! That's freakin' awesome!! Hey, we should get one!"
Does she have a like minded sister?

If only more gun makers would do this.
Let the police of California, Illinois, New Jersey, New York do their jobs with sticks and rocks!

Besides, let the police use Remington 700s in .308. If they wanted Barrett .50BMGs that badly, they would not have been primary advocates for their banning. If weapons themselves are that dangerous, we should not allow even the police to possess them.

How's Barrett going to keep his guns from going interstate, outside his control?
Nice gesture, though.

My wife said the same thing. Too bad the M468 is unavailible in Cali.I told my wife about this ban and Barrett's response. Her response: "That's awesome! That's freakin' awesome!! Hey, we should get one!"
Errr... I don't think that's right. If my memory serves me correctly in his 60 Minutes interview Ronnie said that if civlian sales were shut off he'd be out of business.If the private sector purchased more Barretts, Barrett would not have to depend on military contracts and he depends on military contracts because of the low level of civilian sales.
Many bases do not have enough rifles for each Marine. Aboard MCAS Yuma, I had the same M16A2, and got to know it pretty well, (+23 left on the windage got me expert, third time to the range.) I had the SerNo memorized.Heck, even the USMC probably only has 2 small arms per enlisted men, if not less.

I love my wife!

Double Naught Spy said:This is exactly the sort of wrong thinking I was talking about. It isn't the SWAT Team sniper, team members, or team leader that is wanting the .50s banned. Its the administration. The admin. doesn't use heavy guns. So are we hurting the police by not selling to or servicing their Barretts. Sure, but we aren't hurting the right individuals, are we? It won't be anyone in administration that gets killed raiding a meth lab or bad guy strong hold.
Snipped some of the quote to make it shorter.
