Armalite AR-50 A1 National Match

 The Truth About Guns is reporting on the ArmaLite AR-50 A1 National Match rifle set to be introduced at SHOT 2011

TTAG’s winkled-out some of the details of this superbad version of the American gunmaker’s .50 caliber rifle, starting with the fact that the A1′s got a longer barrel than the standard model (33″ vs. 30″), with eight flutes (no less). That would help explain the A1′s reported sub-MOA accuracy to 100 yards—and beyond! The fact that the A1′s got a match chamber—rather then standard military affair—might have a little something to do with it as well. New for the A1: a skid system to stop the gun from, uh, skidding; retrofittable to the standard AR50. All this large caliber goodness is likely to clock-in at or under $4k.
