WOOOOT!!!
Just ordered it yesterday, it will take two to three months to build before they ship it my way, I asked him why so long and he said it was because of the election, everyone started freaking out... not going to elaborate on that... but anyway, here is a pic

It is the Rebel made by East Ridge Arms, I ordered the 36 inch bull barrel with the 3 inch diameter muzzle brake instead of the 2 inch it comes with.
WOOT! I can't wait!
Just curious, does anyone else own one of these big babies? if so post pics :) :)

Gratz on the new rifle....but that looks like one of those things that i would shoot exactly...once. :O

When you decide to stand on your hind legs like a man and shoot it, please have it on film....... :D
I suppose you are already picking up loading components for it. The price of ammo has gone through the roof for that caliber. Are slugs available for loading yet?

I'd use it for zombies, or to shoot down alien UFOs. :noid

If your talking recoil, a 50 Cal BMG with a Jake brake has no more recoil than a .308, I cant speak for that brake though.

I've shot a Saiga 12 conversion with 10 rd mag's...pretty fun!

That thing will kick like a mule, i have a Browning BLR 308 which kicks like a 22 with mag loads and ive shot a military 50 cal semi auto out at the National Guard training center and the kick surprised me (big kick), i see no recoil pad on the stock to absorb the impact, Film your first shot and post it, its gonna kick, but its a nice gun for sure, i priced a Barrett 50 last year and it was for 9,895 dollars i just couldnt justify that kind of money, But i am looking at this S&W 500 Mag its looks so much like my 357 Mag that i just might have to get it lol

A good brake will take the sting out that 50, I have seen 300 Ultra Mags that you could shoot with one finger.

I built this one to keep unwanted guests off my lawn. I fire it standing up like a man, but I don't hang on to it... Well, I did anyway, but I sold it. It fires a 1" ball (or up to 8 .50 balls) and is 1/3 scale. Weighs just over 80#. Rolls back 3-4 feet when fired.

There's a fella' nearby with a rifle similar to what you're buying, and I know he's used it on deer. I'm not sure how much of the deer he salvaged. Pretty wasteful for that purpose, but we don't have many bad guys around to use it on either I suppose.
Anyone see the video of a .50 rifle round bouncing back and clipping the shooters ear protection off?

That is sweet!!!

I saw that, the guys first words...." Were not doing THAT again!"....or something to that effect!

You'll shoot your eye out kid!
Nice weapon.

Full metal jacket rounds and steel are very much bad. AP round would have been a better choice for that dipstick.
Why do you think the cowboy action shooters use lead only?

What optics are we looking at on this rifle?
Seems like such a long range rifle would need some pretty serious optics.
I used to work at a Sportmans Warehouse, one day a guy walked in just looking for .45 ACP ammo...
Long story short he walked out with his .45 ammo, AND a .50 rifle (can't remember brand, but I think it was Armalite) and a Leupold 20x60 gold ring scope.
Total impulse buy, they had it set up on display on the gun counter because they didn't think they could sell it. Guy walks in, see it, says "I want it" and walks out with it. (after the mandatory paperwork of course)
He said he planned to use it for Elk hunting. :)
-
I would hope something like a NightForce or similar quality would be sitting on top of that.
Being a 50 Cal with a brake it will take some serious abuse!

I hear groundhogs make nice explosions when hit with .50 ammo

What ground hog?

I'm completely jealous.
I saw a barrett at the local range once, I thought somebody had brought tank.
Never be able to own one here in this <expletive deleted> state.
The only thing I've shot that came close was a 300 super mag,which was incredible. I even sat in the bench next to it while it was shot. - holy freakin cow - the pressure from the brake blew me away!
Congrats on gettin that beauty!

I have done work for a friend at U.S. Optics and he makes scopes for the military , heavy duty , solid , and very accurate . www.usoptics.com check them out they got the stuff you'll need for that rifle .
Nutte :salute

We had a brake knock a gun bag (30lbs) of bench two lanes away, they are loud!
