Serbu Firearms will be showing the new BFG-50A rifle at the 2012 SHOT Show. The BFG-50A is a semi-automatic rifle chambered for the .50 BMG cartridge.
According to Serbu, “all our barrels are chambered with our own reamer design which allows surplus ammunition to be fired but gives far greater accuracy than can be achieved with barrels using a machine gun chamber.”
The BFG-50A has been in development for four years, and builds on the success of the original, single-shot BFG-50. Shipping of the BFG-50A began in mid-2011, but this will be the first chance we will have to see the rifle in person.
MSRP is $6700. By way of comparison, the Barrett M82A1 has a MSRP of $8900 in a base configuration.
BFG-50A Specifications
- Caliber – .50 BMG
- Barrel Length – 26″
- Overall Length – 52.5″
- Weight – 25 lbs (unloaded)
- Magazines – 10 round M-82
