You're telling me the almighty Barett 50 cal sniper I was led to believe in media for my whole childhood was some amazingly powerful thing shoots the same bullet as the M2 browning machine gun from 100 years ago spits out hundreds of? What the fuck? Does it at least shoot them at a higher velocity or something like that

Well, before the barrett, the M2 was a sniper rifle thanks to Hathcock.

Reverse, the M2HB actually shoots them at a higher velocity. Also, the M2HB can fire sabot tungsten AP while the M82 cannot because that interferes with its muzzle brake.

You didn't consider that maybe there was a reason the M2 has been in continuous service for over a hundred years without more than a half-hearted attempt at a replacement? Ma Deuce is the greatest weapon in the history of warfare and will never be obsolete.

The Barret .50 has the advantage of not weighing eighty fucking pounds.

the Barrett gets the honor of sharing a round with the M2

>newfaggotry on this board has reached such a level that a fucking retard made an entire thread simply stating that a 100+ year old weapon exists
