Saw this at a gentleman's while I was deer hunting one year. He explained to me that it was a regular AR lower while the upper was a .50 that you had to screw? a cartridge in in order to fire? Anyone have any info on one of these?

(Might belong in tech but I thought it'd be kind of neat to share)

Looks like a good way to bend an ear on that lower.  Yikes!

It's a dryer.

My local shop had one of those a few years ago. I didn't check it out but I did see it there.

It's a trailer house that they hauled out to the middle of nowhere and would stay in during various hunting seasons. It was different to say the least. I'll see if I can find a pic that shows how desolate it was

Note to self... don't post pics of the house on ARFCOM.

yep it was just reviewed in some recent shotgun news, it was scored very low because of the loading method. they did reviews of budget .50's

I hope .50s aren't banned before I graduate and get a real job... I really want one.

Watson Weapon, probably the very first 50BMG upper assembly for an AR15 lower.


There are many others out there now that are much better and more refined, meaning bolt action designs and not interrupted thread actions.


ALS, Ferret, Safety Harbor, Ultra Mag, and 1-2 others.


My ALS 50 is a sub-MOA capable rifle with good match quality ammo.
