New and Improved Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) from Ohio Ordnance Works
There’s no denying
that the BAR is a dead sexy design. And if not sexy, then at least iconic. The
guys at Ohio Ordnance Works realized this and have re-engineered John Browning’s
iconic design for the modern age. The new design knocks a whole bunch of weight
off the gun, increases the cooling capability, and makes it more accurate. They
say that it’s 1 MoA all the way to 1,000 yards, but we’ll need to test that out
for ourselves.
They’ve
also re-engineered the magazines to have a 30 round capacity instead of 20,
which is nice. The whole package will retail for $3,600 sometime in Q2 of
2014.
