There, now that is good, pro-active law-making. Why wait until some nutjob gets his hands on a Browning machine gun and opens up on a shopping mall. There's no need for any private citizen to have a .50
Does that apply to the .50 cal handgun cartridges as well?

Dude, you drank the Koolaid.....
Biggest "feel good" law ever. It weighs a ton, ammo is scarce, it costs a ton of money, very few can load for it, the scope is as much as a used car, and they banned it before it could do any harm. Dumbest thing I have ever heard, and a total waste of time. But, someone somewhere feels good about it, and that's what counts, not facts.
Just the sound of it...BROWNING MACHINE GUN!!! It's .50 BMG ammo. NOT a full auto Browning Machine Gun. Bolt action, single shot.

But, Gunny Hathcock shot a child with one from a mile away in vietnam after he mounted his sniper rifle's scope on it... of course it is too dangerous for civilians
