BARRETT FIREARMS 82A1 50BMG FDE 20″ 10+1

Description

The Barrett Model 82A1 in .50 BMG with a 20-inch barrel in Flat Dark Earth is a compact configuration of the world’s most recognized semi-automatic anti-materiel rifle. Where the longer 29-inch variant emphasizes maximum velocity, the 20-inch barrel optimizes the 82A1 for transport and deployment in close quarters while still delivering the devastating energy of the .50 BMG cartridge. Barrett’s FDE finish provides corrosion resistance and low-visibility coloring suited to field environments.

The Model 82A1’s short-stroke, recoil-operated mechanism absorbs punishment that would destroy lesser actions, while the dual chamber muzzle brake dramatically reduces the felt recoil of the .50 BMG round to manageable levels for repeated fire. The 10+1 capacity provides sufficient rounds for target engagement sequences, and the detachable box magazine allows for rapid reloads in the field. Folding bipod legs deploy quickly and lock securely for stable shooting from prone or supported positions.

At 20 inches, this barrel still generates terminal velocities sufficient for the .50 BMG to perform its role against light vehicles, radar equipment, and hardened materiel targets at ranges where standard rifle calibers are ineffective. Shooters using this configuration for long-range target work will notice slightly increased drop and drift compared to the 29-inch version, but the reduced overall length makes it significantly more practical for storage and transportation.

This is an investment-grade precision platform that retains strong collector and secondary market value. Verify local and state laws regarding .50 BMG ownership before purchase. FFL transfer required.
