'''.50 BMG''' is a type of [[ammunition]] for firearms. It is classified as a <span style="color:#AA0000">'''(R)'''</span>ifle caliber.
This cartridge was originally designed for use in the Browning M1921 and Browning M2 heavy machine guns, neither of which are man-portable firearms. Many decades after its introduction as a heavy machine gun round, it was adapted for use in specialized heavy precision rifles, known in real life as ''anti-materiel rifles'' (AMR). These rifles can be thought of as the spiritual successors to anti-tank rifles. The first modern AMR was the Barrett M82, a predecessor to the [[Barrett M82A1M]] featured in the game. It must be noted that in the Mazes, AMR stands instead for ''anti-monster rifle'' instead.
.50 BMG is pronounced ''fifty B-M-G''.
