So, the Barret is legal in 49 other states, yet we have not seen one commercial (or other) aircraft downed by the rifle or the rounds it shoots. You figure after 34 years since its introduction, the Antis would have stoop playing the same old song. As far as I know, the only real State-Side threat that these rifles bring are to the lower back and the wallet.
Ouch!
“…the Barrett .50 cal rifle, is so powerful it can destroy commercial aircraft.”
They saw it’s destructive power in the movies, so it *MUST* be true!
They banned the .50 BMG but you can get a .510 DTC in Cali with no more effort than buying any other CA-legal rifle there.

I just love this! The idjits ban 50 BMG, so someone makes a bigger round, with the same ballistics, and life goes on. The irony is beautiful.
WaPo is running with this… morons
