For .50BMG semi-automatics, besides the Barrett M82, there is the EDM Arms Windrunner M96 which is the .50BMG. It runs $8250 MSRP on their website (http://www.edmarms.com/products/m96.htm) and might be less expensive through an actual distributor.
It looks like a pretty neat rifle and can be taken down and fit in a custom case that comes with it I believe. I also want to say the bipod and optics are included in their pricing so you'd have everything except ammunition if you buy one of those. They also make one in .338 Lapua for $2k less.
There is also another semi-automatic .50BMG floating around called the Cobb 50 but it's an AR-based build and I think you already stated your distain for the lego guns.
I don't know what prices are on class 3 firearms in general, but the M14 has been around for a while and many people swear by it. I've been wanting the semi-auto M1A in some form or another so I voted for the M14
