No - they are still prototypes AFAIK. Also, AI is in the middle of a change in management / recevership in the UK, so I'm guessing the program is in a holding pattern. Finally, I doubt they will sell to civilians - and if they do it will be massively expensive given their bolt action cost 12,000. |

The AW50 is for sale to civies, I think he was thinking of the new AS50(?) the SEAL's wanted. The two bad things that I've heard about the AW50 is price (10K+) and the muzzle brake. With their current problems, I'm sure the price will go up. For the price of one you could get a M82 and a BFG, AR-50 or SA .50. I think the AS50 price was estimated to be 14K |
