I was on a M2A 50 caliber browning machine gun crew in the service, put one of those on full auto and push the butterfly and see what happens. As several guys have already mentioned the recoil on that gas operated muzzle brake heavy barrelled rifle isn't bad at all, I was surprised how light it was first time I fired one but that first round has you thinking how bad is this going to be? I know that was fun, we shot a watermelon at about 1000 yds. I'd like to have one but they are way expensive and the ammo ain't cheap either.

The one in the video is a cobb. The gun prob. is about 30lbs. and the big *** muzzle helps a lot, before I shot the first time I was very nervious but after that I got trigger happy!

Just be careful when shooting a .50 cal:

First guy was dumb for shootig into a burm that was WAY to close, who knows what rocks and stuff are in it.
Second guy if I remember right was shooting at a peice or Iron or somethig like that. Well known fact that you don't shoot high power non armor peircing stuff at hard metal...
With there was a legal place to shoot one of those .50's up here in IN.
Closest place is **** Creek.
