Re: Old Barrett/New Barrett
I was just wondering if Barrett made small changes like Armalite has with the AR 50. The thing that can happen with time is a less expensive way is found to do something which can result in lesser quality. There seems to be a number of used 99s on the market, don't know why.

Re: Old Barrett/New Barrett
Don't you also think someone buys one and finds out the recoil and price per round is a little more than they would like?
Maybe an AR 50 would be a better choice. I like the compactness of the 99 however and the scope mounts lower to the bbl.

Actually, I live in the state of Chicago and know there will be another assult on our rights and thought I would pick up weapon of mass destruction before they're banned.

Re: Old Barrett/New Barrett
I'm pretty sure Armalite just came out with the AR50A1 in 416 if your set on that round. I personally have the AR50A1 in 50 and wouldn't trade even up for the 99. If your concerned with IL and a ban, I'm sure they'll go after the 50s and the 416 will remain unnoticed by the media just like in California.

Re: Old Barrett/New Barrett
Yeah, I've thought about that too. I've been in contact with Armalite about their 416, but they don't have any production dates set yet. If I wasn't a citizen of Chicago, I would probably buy a 50. but King Rahm I is going to rid his kingdom of this evil menace once and for all. I guess he's just tired of all the planes being shot out of the skies.
