Did any one notice the eye releif on that scope was measured in feet, not iches.
Is this even legal to own? I remember reading somewhere that the caliber a rifle is limited by the ATF at .50. I don't know if thats true though.

There are some exceptions like the 600 Jeffrey and the 700 Nitro Expres although this one an't be legal for civillian use. I don't think Midway has any ammo or RCBS reloading dies for 20mm.

A fellow in Texas has one for sale on gunbroker. 10 dollars a round I think. It listed with NFA items under AOW. Pretty cool rifle. Extremely heavy if I can remember.

There's also the Anzio 20mm rifles, for those who are actually interested in buying one despite the registration of a Destructive Device.
20mm practice rounds are available at roughly 10 bucks a piece while tracers cost about $15.
Rounds with an active warhead, if you even find the stuff available, are DD's all on their own and I think most of the reason you won't find them is because there is hardly any market for rounds that each require a $200 tax stamp. (At that point you might as well buy anti-tank missiles)
Other 20mm rifles are the Finnish Lahti L-39, the Swiss Solothurn S-18 (multiple variants), the Croatian RT-20, the Japanese Type 97 and the Indian Vidhwansak, the latter also capable of firing the Russian 14.5x114mm round also fired by rifles with a similar purpose, such as the Russian PTRS-41 and PTRD-41 and the Aizerbaijani Istiglal.
The difference between the two is that the 14.5 is still officially a machine gun round while 20mm and bigger are cannon rounds and as such have other warheads available.

You can have the 20, I"ll take the 14 tho. Looks much more user friendly.

That thing is awesome! It would be super funny to pull up to the local range and plop this thing down on the bench to shoot paper at 100 yards. The look people's faces would be priceless.

Hey, this is yesterday's technology. I just bought a government surplus 20mm Vulcan. I'm getting cans for all six barrels.
Best damned gopher weapon in the country.

You pull this gun out when people start whining about your .50 being loud.
