Title: Tennessee names .50 caliber Barrett as the state rifle
Post by: punaperson on March 02, 2016, 08:30:21 PM

I never cease to be amazed at how different Hawaii is from so many other states... a dramatically large percentage of the population here would have to disappear before something like this could happen:

Tennessee just named its state rifle: the .50-caliber Barrett, one of the most powerful rifles in the world.

The Barrett Model 82A1 now shares state symbol status alongside the mockingbird, the tomato and the raccoon.

If Hawaii ever got around to having a state handgun, this is the most likely candidate to win (at least it could be used in the appropriate manner to deal with all the other state firearms laws):

The 50 cal would probably be a good choice for Hawaii being the 50th state of the union.

I hear this is what Greg, Karl "Marx" Rhoads and most of the Hawaii legislature want to vote for:
