The Barrett M82A1 (Barrett Firearms part no. 14030) is a semi-automatic .50 BMG rifle built for long-range precision and anti-materiel work, pairing a 20-inch fluted barrel with a rugged Flat Dark Earth metal finish over a black synthetic stock. Recoil-operated and magazine-fed, the M82A1 has become the benchmark large-caliber semi-auto platform for military, law enforcement, and civilian long-range shooters alike. A full-length Picatinny rail and flip-up backup sights keep the rifle ready for serious glass, while the quick-detach bipod and Sorbothane recoil pad make it manageable behind the trigger. Whether the mission is long-range precision work or hard-use range time, this M82A1 delivers proven Barrett engineering in a caliber built to reach out.
