The M82 and the most recent evolution the M107 are both versions of the same weapon: the .50 caliber Barrett sniper rifle. It’s the most representative sniper rifle, because of its incredible rage (1.5 kilometers) and currently holds the record at 2.5 kilometers. There is no significant difference between the M107 designation ant the last upgrade of the M82: M82A1M.
So why is it so popular? Well probably because there isn’t any armor available yet that can withstand it, and it can actually penetrate vehicle armor! In the ’90s the US military ordered a 125 such weapons to be used in Kuwait and the Iraq war. After seeing it was a definitive success, they wanted some modifications to it, so the most recent model M82A1M was created, which features some changes like the scope railing being adapted to other types of scopes, less recoil, and the cartridge holder being placed behind the trigger.
All these modifications allowed the M82 to be shot from the shoulder. Have a look at the slideshow photo gallery and at the two cool videos I included in this post, to get the feel of the M107 .50 cal sniper rifle!

Here is a segment from one of my favorite shows “Future Weapons” dedicated to the M107 sniper rifle:
And here’s an example of the recoil you can expect when firing it! Amazing!

Yeah, I fired a Barrett 50 Caliber ultra light today, for the first time, and It was an experience like no other, after the first shot, I was stunned for a couple seconds, the sounds is something i can deal with, but I’m surprised that the percussion I got from it didn’t kill me.
yes i shot a 50 2day and i was scared of the bullet size i thought it was going to kick like a mule but i didnt even feel it i love it
cod4 amazing especially the barrett .50 cal i got to level 49 just yesterday ! level like no tomorrow
but does it jam ??? can be quite useless if it does
i got the barret .50 cal yesterday @ cod 4 and it’s amazing with the stopping power perk i get 1 shot kills while hitting in the stomach area…

LOL? I just go to a military camp in my country, they have this sniper rifle that can shoot up to 6 KM. I can’t belive it myself but I don’t have the chance to try it but atleast. I got to handle it and try. It without ammo LOL
thers needs to be way more things for wepons heres barley two wepons i mean this is a good .50cal but there nothing but crap for wepons in this catagory probabley because people worry to much about gay russian and european wepons when america makes WAY better wepons!
This is a very proud/effective weapon.
OKie nice comments nice videos nice information about barrett 50 🙂 i really like it gona buy one just to keep it like that 🙂
forgot for PS3 users add me Stunts3000 is my name there all who plays call of duty modern warfare 2 😀
well>@alistair> for some defect it will but. the .50cal wont jam especially its a semi-auto. .50cal semi-auto and bolt action do not jam at all, even when the rifle s soaked n water…
how can i buy a barrett M107A1 rifle? Please give the detail information about the importing this gun.
yeah i kno lot about this gun cause i am gonna get it when i get 15 grand….im gonna get the M107 varient of it cause it has more features and is practicly the same thing as the M82 and well i wont have to worry bout ppl pissin me off when i have that thing in my house…it weighs 30 pounds and well u cant blind fire it or itll probly blow ur sohulder out of socket and it has max distance of 1.5 miles the bullet rips limbs off(obviously) and since the .50 cal bullet has so much energy behind it if it comes within 6 inches of someone they are ded
No wonder the ATF want’s to eliminate these rifles in the hands of law abiding citizens. They look at posts like this infantile babble shown here…
If you don’t know what you are talking about, keep your mouth shut ! Excuse me idiot, your stupid is showing !

What the hell is COD4? This is a legit weapon..not some kindergarten game.
WOW! talk about COD4 I have played both M.W1 & M.W.2 its way not real life fighting our USA troups take in each day. I would like to shoot this sweet gun. I have been doing ALOT of reaserch on eaverything I can know about the Barrett .50 cal-semi auto sniper rifle. I have seen many prone positionas on firing & in not one of those vidio’s did the shooter rip his shoulder off, due to VERY LITTLE recoil action
tht shit is alsome
Interesting justification. I really like to read it Marcy
Amazing video. Just love it. 50 Cal
It ,s sublime
Obviously a rifle that fires 0.50 BMG is going to have a fairly fierce recoil, but it doesn’t look as bad as I’d have expected.
I’d love a chance to fire one. I guess the price of the ammo is going to be fairly frightening, like £5 – £10 a shot
