The reason Mark had to keep racking the charging handle on the 50 in Shooter was due to the ammunition not being powerful enough to chamber the next round. They found the full powered loads were too much for the camera and crew around so they used greatly reduced power loads.
Who cares? It's a movie. They could work around it. That scene is so dumb to anyone who knows what a semi auto barrett is (aka 90% of the audience interested in those movies). They could simply edit out the recharging parts, but the fact they deliberately kept them in suggests they wanted to make the scene more dramatic and give mroe "power" to the rifle with the dramatic, furious pulling back after every shot.
It's a M82A2 - it's a bullpup version of the M82 that I guess never really left the prototype stage (or maybe was just made/sold in extremely limited numbers). The one in the Jurassic Park III clip had a fake barrel to make it look more 20mm-y.
@@darrenjamesgaspe8682 it's easier to just watch the forgotten weapons video on the M2. Basically if you dont check before using the gun will explode or not work.
Tremors 2: Aftershocks Burt Gummer's custom weapon and I quote: "Grizzly single-shot, 50 caliber BMG, based on a WW1 anti-tank cartridge." He only gets to shoot 1 bullet.
Actually there was a single shot rifle that shot 50BMG "the Grizzly" back before Ronnie's Barrett designed his, a few company's made single shot rifles in 50 BMG.

14:19 Wow, even the Barrett guys didn't know that one. For the record, it's a visually modified (different barrel profile, mocked up 20mm rounds for the magazine) M82a2---an old experimental bullpup version of the M82.
14kg - that's a heavy piece of gear but you can still carry it around and even sprint short distances with it. I can believe a woman would be able to manage it too if they're physically active.
@@JustSumGuy01 maybe like 30m as an average - you'd normally only actually sprint between cover. You could go miles at a slow run. Then there's people who can really run.

You know a round has too much power when the damn thing can ricochet directly back after hitting a flat surface and have more energy than a .22 at 50 yards
THANK YOU for mentioning that early muzzle break. The first of two times I ever shot an M82, it had one of these but nobody would believe me when I sketched out what I remembered as it for sure didn't have the 'arrowhead' version (the second one I shot had that, though).

Ever since watching demo ranch, my wife wants a Barrett .50. Shes about 5' and a buck soaking wet. If she gets it, this little woman will train herself until she can sprint and shoulder fire accurately and put all the guys we shoot with to shame. Shes a stubborn one, and will do it simply because shes pretty freakin badass. Shes already shown the guys we shoot with that she doesnt need anyone hovering over her... Theyre all a little scared of her now. Lol and people wonder why she won my heart.
The rifle that they are calling the iron horn is one of uncle ronnie barrets first prototypes off hand models that didn't have a stock on it because it was shot from the shoulder as the shooter was shooting from a sitting or prone position , this rife was before you two started working for uncle Ron. If im correct he only made a few and never sold them they were experimental, I had a article about them back in the mid to late 80s and in this movie they probly used one and mocked it up to look like a 20 mm , you can always ask him about it since you two work for him , I was one of his first customers that helped him get his company going after he almost lost it because he was selling his merchandise way too cheap! I'm sure he'll remember my order since he was taking the very first orders
14:25 It is a M82A2. They were a bullpup semi auto the rested over the shoulder and the magazine well as a butt plate. I don't think there was a ever a 20mm version though. It was also used in Metal Gear Solid 4. I wish it was able to be purchased.
You guys showed Rambo and didn’t touch on the fact that Schoolboy’s Barrett had a suppressor on it during the rescue mission but when Rambo told him to fire off a shot it had the arrowhead tank break after.
I know its not a .50 bmg but i do love it when the guys are playing with the .500 magnum in the Last Stand... Anie just makes that look like any other revolver.
What about the original Robocop (the "Cobra Assault Cannon" scenes)? Or Toy Soldiers, the one with Wil Wheaton (the scene where the police prep to storm the school and hit the observers on the roof)? Those are my earliest recollections of seeing .50's (along with "Navy SEALs," of course, which you already did here).
In the scene from SHOOTER, I spoke to the armorer for the film and the gun was indeed modified to cycle with blanks, but when they were filming the scene, the crap flying in from the helicopter stunts and close fly bys fouled up the action. There was grass and high weeds and dirt jamming the action so even though the M82 was blank adapted to fire semi auto, it wouldn't cycle because of all the stuff mucking up the bolt and chamber. So the actors were told to just manually eject the spent rounds and ram down the new live rounds (all blanks).
Right? I dunno why they completely skipped over that scene, it's by far the most ridicolus clip between all the ones showed. FULLY automatic infinite tracer rounds barrett against a car.... and it can't ever penetrate simple steel sheets.
The bullpup rifle is the M82A2, from when Barrett though a good sollution for attack helicopters would be a 50 cal fired standing from the shoulder aimed with a red dot.
The main reason the gun blew up was there was no pressure safety valve found in most rifles. The main reasons why the cartridge blew up in the chamber was there was an obstruction in the barrel, there was a cold weld between the bullet and the brass due to the age of the round and or there was too much powder in the round.
@@orlock20 kentucky has come out and stated the round was too hot, and that the pressure inside the chamber exceeded the screw caps 85,000 PSI pressure limit, causing it to literally explode
@@MrXennhorn The owner of the company claims in a recent video he never said the screw cap could withstand 85,000 PSI and now states an outside source that it would take 160,000 psi to cause that kind of failure. A company that doesn't know the stress needed for its safety system to fail kind of makes me wonder if there is any quality control. This has happened before with different cartridges which is why pressure release valves and bolt catchers exist on most rifles for over 100 years.
We used the muzzle break to be able to fire full automatic 50BMG blanks. Without the muzzle break, there wasn't enough energy blow back to cycle on full auto. (As in "Shooter")
12:08 there is some great behind the scenes footage of making this scene. The entire .50 set up was rigged together and was not in the script. the brake is on there because apparently a regular M2 firing blanks was ripping the feet off of the thin sheet metal of the truck bed
The first time I saw a .50 cal sniper rifle used in a movie was in "Navy Seals" starring Charlie Sheen back in the 80s where a Seal Team member code named "God" shot thru a concrete wall to hit an enemy using a heat vision scope. The second time was in a Dolph Lundgren movie titled "Silent Trigger" where he used a .50 cal to take out a limousine from 2 miles away.
Pretty entertaining, I got my first Barrett 82 in 2005 and a M107A1 in 2015 ,It has a little more push with the Barrett suppressor. A blast to shoot at an Indoor gun range ,It likes the MK211,Raufoss rounds just fine. I Have used Barrett customer service a few times, Pro level service.. Later from Texas.
The hefty Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention has a pivotal role as one of Swagger's personal sniper rifles. This rifle fires the extremely ballistics efficient .408 CheyTac round. As a result, this rifle, with correctly manufactured ammunition, can be effectively used out to distances of approximately 1.5 miles
First time I saw the Barrett was in Robocop. Not sure what model it was but it certainly piqued my interest God bless you all thank you for your service have a good day
That M2 from Rambo has the Barret break on the barrel to hide the BFA and gas booster used to cycle it on blanks. The bullpup Barret is a M82A2 with a different break on it, probably to also hide the BFA in the barrel.
Fun Fact: 2:10 the guy they're going to see in the movie, was played by Levon Helm famed drummer/vocalist and only American member of "The Band" who were also the studio band for Ronnie Hawkins and Some guy named Bob D... OH SHIT!!!! 3:07 THERES LEVON RIGHT THERE...
What is funny about this is the guy on the right immediately reminded my of "School Boy" from the fourth rambo movie that was running the Barrett in the movie

Because that was most certainly NOT the case in 2007.

I’d love to sit in a bar with these guys buying beers all night and telling stories.
I fire an M82 for work every 3 months (or sooner if things "happen"). Wonderful weapon system. Thank you Barrett guys!!!
The rifle that they are calling the iron horn is one of uncle ronnie barrets first prototypes off hand models that didn't have a stock on it because it was shot from the shoulder as the shooter was shooting from a sitting or prone position , this rife was before you two started working for uncle Ron. If im correct he only made a few and never sold them they were experimental, I had a article about them back in the mid to late 80s and in this movie they probly used one and mocked it up to look like a 20 mm , you can always ask him about it since you two work for him , I was one of his first customers that helped him get his company going after he almost lost it because he was selling his merchandise way too cheap! I'm sure he'll remember my order since he was taking the very first orders
14:25 It is a M82A2. They were a bullpup semi auto the rested over the shoulder and the magazine well as a butt plate. I don't think there was a ever a 20mm version though. It was also used in Metal Gear Solid 4. I wish it was able to be purchased.
You guys showed Rambo and didn’t touch on the fact that Schoolboy’s Barrett had a suppressor on it during the rescue mission but when Rambo told him to fire off a shot it had the arrowhead tank break after.
I know its not a .50 bmg but i do love it when the guys are playing with the .500 magnum in the Last Stand... Anie just makes that look like any other revolver.
What about the original Robocop (the "Cobra Assault Cannon" scenes)? Or Toy Soldiers, the one with Wil Wheaton (the scene where the police prep to storm the school and hit the observers on the roof)? Those are my earliest recollections of seeing .50's (along with "Navy SEALs," of course, which you already did here).
Please bring these two guys back, they're awesome.
Robocop from the 1980's had a lot of 50 cal action.
Surprised they didn't react to that.
I was surprised they didn't touch on that one. I think that was one if the first showings of a Barrett in a movie.
In the scene from SHOOTER, I spoke to the armorer for the film and the gun was indeed modified to cycle with blanks, but when they were filming the scene, the crap flying in from the helicopter stunts and close fly bys fouled up the action. There was grass and high weeds and dirt jamming the action so even though the M82 was blank adapted to fire semi auto, it wouldn't cycle because of all the stuff mucking up the bolt and chamber. So the actors were told to just manually eject the spent rounds and ram down the new live rounds (all blanks).
I want to see Demolition Ranch put a ballistic dummy behind a car on it's side just to show how much that Hancock scene would NOT work.
Right? I dunno why they completely skipped over that scene, it's by far the most ridicolus clip between all the ones showed. FULLY automatic infinite tracer rounds barrett against a car.... and it can't ever penetrate simple steel sheets.
The bullpup rifle is the M82A2, from when Barrett though a good sollution for attack helicopters would be a 50 cal fired standing from the shoulder aimed with a red dot.
I was getting worried, scrolling through the comments and not seeing anyone mention the correct designation of the JP3 Barrett.
That one with Kentucky ballistic video where his 50 nearly introduced him to god
Some of the most enjoyable content I’ve ever come across!!!
This was awesome. In a similar vein, I think it'd be cool if you got real medics & corpsmen to react to medics & corpsmen in the movies.
You need these guys back on. They are hilarious!
"Spitting on it like a N64 game." F'ing newbie, you blow NES games. No one ever spit on a N64 to make it fit.
Don't do that either, it corrodes the contacts
@@TotallyNotAFox whoosh
@@ScottWaa haha funny reddit woosh
Really enjoyed the addition of the technical aspect in this video
You guys missed out Robocop. They were blowing up cars with one in that movie.
That was a glaring omission right there. That film was likely a lot of people's first exposure to the Barrett .50 cal rifle to be honest.
And the blank round failing to eject and stove piping out the side of the action after blowing up the ED209 in the end. 😂
@@TheWombat2012 Wow. Never noticed that. I thought it was a charging handle :-)
thank you guys for noticing the bolt racking scene in shooter.
because i noticed when it 1st came out when I was 17 and in ROTC.
I want to see black riffle react to Scott's gun blowing up
That was AWESOME! Loved having the Barret guys here.
I want to see them react to KENTUCKY BALLISTICS rifle explosion/ round malfunction. I know it's not a Barret, but I want to hear an expert explanation

"That's how it is walking into an IHOP as an amputee."🤣🤣🤣
Holy crap y'all are from Tennessee? Take a guess who just went to the front of every line I have. I knew Barrett was here but not BRC.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing and thank you for your service!
I know it's not a Barret but I think you all should have reacted to Kentucky Ballistics 50 cal blowing up
The main reason the gun blew up was there was no pressure safety valve found in most rifles. The main reasons why the cartridge blew up in the chamber was there was an obstruction in the barrel, there was a cold weld between the bullet and the brass due to the age of the round and or there was too much powder in the round.
@@orlock20 kentucky has come out and stated the round was too hot, and that the pressure inside the chamber exceeded the screw caps 85,000 PSI pressure limit, causing it to literally explode
@@MrXennhorn The owner of the company claims in a recent video he never said the screw cap could withstand 85,000 PSI and now states an outside source that it would take 160,000 psi to cause that kind of failure. A company that doesn't know the stress needed for its safety system to fail kind of makes me wonder if there is any quality control. This has happened before with different cartridges which is why pressure release valves and bolt catchers exist on most rifles for over 100 years.
You have GOT to keep bringing these guys on!!
These guys are great. They make me want to buy a 50 Cal.
We used the muzzle break to be able to fire full automatic 50BMG blanks. Without the muzzle break, there wasn't enough energy blow back to cycle on full auto. (As in "Shooter")
I wish you asked them or let them comment on Kentucky Ballistics accident with the slap rounds. Maybe this was done beforehand?
12:08 there is some great behind the scenes footage of making this scene. The entire .50 set up was rigged together and was not in the script. the brake is on there because apparently a regular M2 firing blanks was ripping the feet off of the thin sheet metal of the truck bed
"He's not using high quality ammunition"
Well duh, they're using blanks.
Thoroughly entertained!! Hats off to you gentlemen!
I loved the night vision sniper shot from rambo when you just see the top half of someone's head go north but he's all green
Good ol Levon! The old man at 3:05 is Levon Helm, drummer and singer from The Band.
9:14 there were dudes on the rifle beforehand and they got clapped, so thats why there’s only 2 rounds in the mag when they get to it.
You get that falling brass T-shirt when you graduate from the repair course.
Yeah, I've got mine :)
The first time I saw a .50 cal sniper rifle used in a movie was in "Navy Seals" starring Charlie Sheen back in the 80s where a Seal Team member code named "God" shot thru a concrete wall to hit an enemy using a heat vision scope. The second time was in a Dolph Lundgren movie titled "Silent Trigger" where he used a .50 cal to take out a limousine from 2 miles away.
Need to bring these guys back with Matt and the guys. They are so knowledgeable guns/movies and funny ass fuck. Keep it coming...
Man, I saw that video title and I just started smiling!
Pretty entertaining, I got my first Barrett 82 in 2005 and a M107A1 in 2015 ,It has a little more push with the Barrett suppressor. A blast to shoot at an Indoor gun range ,It likes the MK211,Raufoss rounds just fine. I Have used Barrett customer service a few times, Pro level service.. Later from Texas.
The hefty Cheyenne Tactical M-200 Intervention has a pivotal role as one of Swagger's personal sniper rifles. This rifle fires the extremely ballistics efficient .408 CheyTac round. As a result, this rifle, with correctly manufactured ammunition, can be effectively used out to distances of approximately 1.5 miles
First time I saw the Barrett was in Robocop. Not sure what model it was but it certainly piqued my interest God bless you all thank you for your service have a good day
"If there's a clip you want to see-"
Me, on reflex: "magazine"
Me, 5 seconds later: "oh no wait... nevermind"
Loved the Barrett guys comments and knowledge
So happy I found this video.🤣🤣
That Rambo clip is THE BEST Rambo clip EVER ! TOTAL GRINDHOUSE
I only had to watch 10 seconds of this post before I smashed the Like Button. God Bless you guys!
That M2 from Rambo has the Barret break on the barrel to hide the BFA and gas booster used to cycle it on blanks.
The bullpup Barret is a M82A2 with a different break on it, probably to also hide the BFA in the barrel.
You had me by : He's blowing, like its an N64 module. :-D
"That's one of our belt fed models. I don't know if you've seen that one..." Lmfao!
Fun Fact: 2:10 the guy they're going to see in the movie, was played by Levon Helm famed drummer/vocalist and only American member of "The Band" who were also the studio band for Ronnie Hawkins and Some guy named Bob D... OH SHIT!!!! 3:07 THERES LEVON RIGHT THERE...
What is funny about this is the guy on the right immediately reminded my of "School Boy" from the fourth rambo movie that was running the Barrett in the movie
Around minute 8,
This was the shooting a gun in the air like that fella in 1990s point break.
Except with windows, and a fifty.
Thank you for the laughs Gentlemen!
In late 80's I had to use an M2 Ma Deuce that was so crappy I had to cycle the charger handle every 2 or 3 rounds.
This is probably my favorite video just because these guys are tops
