    It was 5 years ago so I don't remember the details. He and one of his "regional salesmen" were eating at the table next to us and had on their company hats or shirts or something and I had an eguns.com TShirt on so we struck up a conversation.

    Ops Inc has a good reputation but I have no personal experience with them.

    Several years back when I was in the Army, Barrett came to Ft. Benning with his .50's and they had some suppressors (old school technology). We fired them suppressed and unsuppressed.

    I know I have seen some USMIL with them, but I am unaware as to the manufacturer. I'll see what I can find out.

    Because barrel length only affects the muzzle velocity which in turn affects terminal ballistics and not accuracy.

    I am fairly certain that the Barrett CQB 50 can still reach out and touch quite a ways.

    Here's B&T's version for you.
    Cant vouch for their heavy cans over .308, but their SMG cans run pretty well.

    I fully understand that, but giving up velocity, does decrease energy.

    That's true. But, remember you are shooting a .50 cal. and not a 5.56 or 7.62.
