Anyone that's seen the gun care to comment on the scope rail assembly? I wasn't impressed that it's all too sturdy.
I was looking around at the SHOT Show, and I'm thinking the M107A1 will be out sooner, have less unproven variables, and be a better long-term investment. I was excited to check out the Serbu, but disappointed with it up close. It looks like there's a lot that's gone into it, but some substantial work left to do. |

The Serbu has a lot less parts. A fixed barrel, that's a huge plus. The accuracy beats the Barrett hands down. Yes, I shot it.
I own a Barrett, as a matter of fact, 2 of them. An 82a1 and a 95. I like the Serbu rifle in its simplicity. I will own one. |

I'm not much on match shooting (I don't have the time to take it seriously -so IMHO why bother) but I plan to work up a load to see what I can get it to do. If it is what it should be -I'll try to get it to an event. |

This thing has been in the works for YEARS. "Six months..", "Two weeks", "Coming along nicely", etc, etc, etc., blah blah blah Website still says shipping Q2-Q3 2010. Last time I checked it was 2011. That said; Schryver is taking Barrett M107A1 pre-orders now for $11K If Serbu can really release this project by Summer 2011, properly handle any order backlog with minimal delay, ensure the first batch runs FLAWLESS and keep the street price near his projected MSRP.....it's a winner. |

The one they had at SHOT Show with the suppressor was a CQ model. It's also listed on the website.

Yeah, saw the specs on the website...even more tempting.
But the price is a little crazy. |

What else? Now titanium brake and if I remember correctly the whole bolt assembly has been redone to handle a suppressor. |
