Mike BirdwellHot Damn!! I got a Barrett Today!!
I just returned from the gun store where I purchased a model 95 Barrett! I feel like I got a steal, It was new & unfired, but was trade show demo. I bought it for $4000 out the door. This included the rings, 2 magazines, A hardshell case & a box of ammo. I was really impressed with the trigger on this gun, other 50's I have tried, had horrible triggers. Tell me the good & the bad about barrett. This is my first 50 bmg, & I'm mighty anxious to get to the range & try her out. Thanks for your time.
Regards Mike
Congratulations!! I dont own one just yet in life but plan on it one day. Looking forward to some reports on the fun your about to have...
Cheers,
Justin

What scope you going to slap on that bad boy?Good news its a Barrett.Bad news can be expensive habit to feed.Really think about where you shoot it.A stray riccochet can travel a good distance and still be very dangerous.

Mike BirdwellI installed a leupold 6.5-20X long range with side focus & a 1/8" dot. I have found a range close by, that I can shoot at 700 yrds.
