Barrett Firearms M82A1 | .50 BMG 29″ Fluted | 10rd | FDE

The Barrett Model 82A1 is a semi-automatic, large-caliber rifle chambered for .50 BMG with a 29-inch fluted barrel and Flat Dark Earth finish. Designed as the rifle that started Barrett’s legacy, the 82A1 pairs a long optic rail and adjustable bipod with a fixed synthetic stock and Sorbothane recoil pad for controlled follow-up shots. For a capable optic under $1,000 that complements the platform’s long-range capability, consider a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50 for extended elevation and repeatable tracking.

Applications include extreme long-range precision target shooting and experimental or ballistic testing where a heavy-caliber, semi-automatic platform is required.

Its configuration is suited to shooters who need an established, service-proven platform for long-distance precision and testing roles rather than lightweight field carry.
