Serbu Firearms Refuses To Sell .50 Cal Sniper Rifles To NYPD R (FBI, good news)

[All American NYC]

word is that Serbu Firearms, a manufacturer of bolt-action and semi-automatic .50 caliber sniper rifles, will not be selling their arms to the New York Police Department. The reason is obvious, New York’s unconstitutional SAFE Act.

Not good news for Bloomberg.

I'll bet they are already selling all they can manufacture.

And the other game in town, Barrett, won't sell to them either.

Why do the police "need" a .50 caliber rifle? Being hit by one is "cruel and unusual" punishment in my book.

Given that the .50 cal is like an AR, meaning it is generic and there are numerous people who make the generic model, who cares? That dinky company wasn't going to make a single sale to NYPD anyway so this is just cheap publicity to fool stupid people.

If someone's going to shoot me I'd rather it be 1-.50cal than 15-9mms or .22s.

WTF does the NYPD need a .50 cal for? Their SWAT teams are already integrated with FBI SWAT and Homeland Security Special Detail detachments.
