Description
You’re not just looking at a rifle; you’re looking at a legacy. The Barrett M107A1 50 BMG, 29″ Barrel, Gray Cerakote Finish, Synthetic Stock, 10Rd, Front/Rear Flip Sights, 10Rd, 1 Magazine, Bipod, Pelican Hard Case is the modernized, semi-automatic .50 BMG platform that redefined long-range engagement. It’s the civilian-legal evolution of the military’s M107, built for extreme distance, immense power, and legendary reliability. I’ve put a few boxes of expensive ammo through this exact configuration, and here’s what you need to know.
Answer Capsule: The Barrett M107A1 is a semi-automatic .50 BMG rifle with a 29-inch barrel, gray Cerakote finish, and a synthetic stock. This package includes 10-round capacity, front and rear flip-up iron sights, one magazine, a bipod, and comes housed in a protective Pelican hard case. It’s a turn-key, long-range anti-material system ready for serious shooting.
Let’s talk about that 29-inch barrel. In the world of .50 BMG, barrel length is directly tied to velocity and, consequently, to effective range. This isn’t a compact offering; it’s the full-length system designed to wring every last foot-per-second out of that massive cartridge. The gray Cerakote finish isn’t just for looks—it’s a durable, corrosion-resistant armor that shrugs off the elements, which matters when you’re hauling a 30+ pound rifle to a remote firing line. The weight, by the way, is a feature, not a bug. At roughly 31 pounds unloaded, it soaks up recoil in a way that makes firing a .50 BMG surprisingly manageable. You feel a big push, not a sharp, punishing slam.
The synthetic stock is a key upgrade from older models. It’s lighter and impervious to moisture, a real benefit for a rifle that might see use in varied conditions. The included flip-up iron sights are a nice touch—robust backups that give you immediate aiming capability right out of the Pelican case. The heart of the system, though, is the semi-automatic action. It uses a recoil-operated, rotating bolt design that’s proven itself globally. Feeding from the included 10-round box magazine, it allows for rapid follow-up shots that simply aren’t possible with a bolt-action in this caliber. The package is drop-in ready; you provide the ammo and a suitable range, and it’s good to go. This rifle is mil-spec compatible, meaning a wide array of optics mounts and accessories from brands like Spuhr, Badger Ordnance, or Nightforce will interface without issue.

Pros & Cons
Pros: Unmatched power and long-range capability in a semi-auto platform. Incredibly robust and reliable design. The included Pelican case and bipod make it a complete kit. Recoil is manageable for the cartridge. Holds its value exceptionally well.
Cons: The price tag of $11994.95 is a serious investment. Ammunition is costly and not always easy to find locally. It’s heavy and long, requiring specific transportation and shooting space considerations. It’s overkill for anything but extreme long-range or hardened target shooting.
Who is this for? Look, this isn’t a deer rifle. It’s for the serious long-range enthusiast who wants to push boundaries beyond .338 Lapua. It’s for the collector of iconic firearms. It’s for someone with access to a range that can safely handle a .50 BMG’s multi-mile potential. If you’re looking to make consistent hits on steel at 1500+ yards or simply own a piece of modern firearms history, this is your tool.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What kind of optic do I need for this rifle?
A: You need a scope built for the task. Think high-magnification (5-25x or more), a massive tube (34mm or larger) for elevation adjustment, and a reputation for durability—brands like Nightforce ATACR, Vortex Razor HD Gen III, or Schmidt & Bender PMII are common pairings. It must be mounted in a quality, high-profile mount.
Q: Is the bipod included, or do I need to buy one separately?
A: A bipod is included in this package. It’s a sturdy, quick-detach unit designed specifically for the M107A1’s front end, so you don’t need to source one separately to get started.
Q: Can I order this directly to my door?
A: No. Like all firearms, this requires an FFL transfer. We can ship this to Missouri and compliant US states, but it must be received by a licensed dealer who will process the necessary background check before you take possession.
