M110- simplest terms, an M16 in 308. His B-Hole is way behind the end of the silencer, so no worries there.

Couldn't have been a Barrett. The mighty blast of air pressure would have obviously torn buttrest man in half, from rear end in a top hat to ear.

The Israeli air marshals are the ones who demanded the "Deagle", aka the Desert Eagle, be invented. They used to carry little pussy little .22s on airplanes because they were worried about depressurizing the cabin, but then the mossad invented a special incendiary .50 magnum bullet that does not penetrate the cabin. It also burns people from the inside out, the most horrible death imaginable. Now the air marshalls have the true firepower they need in case of a hijacking. Fun deagle facts:

Having fired the .50 Desert Eagle once upon a time, it's a hilarious gun to shoot, with an absolutely silly fireball, but it's completely impractical

The grip size makes it absolutely horrible to shoot unless your hands look like shovels, though. Definitely not for orange presidents.

I worked a gun range that had a rental Deagle in Gold Tiger Stripe. After being a Range Safety for a renter firing it, I told them to quit charging by the box, because nearly no one fired more than a mag through it. We went from charging 30$ a box to 20$ a mag. Still rented so much it was clapped out within 2 years.

I fired a nickel-plated one in .44 magnum that was very well maintained and cared for in general. It only had a single stoppage in an 8-round mag. To be fair, asking a modern semi-auto pistol to fire eight whole rounds without a single failure to feed is pretty unrealistic.

I had a 1980s manufactured one in 357 that was the most finicky gun I've ever owned. I'm including Army guns- that piece of poo poo hated just about every brand and loading I put into it, with one absolutely insane outlier. Aluminum cased Blazer was a loving typewriter in it.

We were in Vegas for a buddy’s birthday and hit up Battlefield Vegas, the place that’ll let you crush a car with a tank, and someone was renting one of those on the range. Indoors the concussion was insane, it was like a big bass kick drum in your lungs, and that’s not being anywhere in the path of the muzzle brake. Seconding the Deagle sentiment. Hilarious to shoot, especially if I’m not buying the ammo, completely impractical unless you have Truckasaurus hands.

I shot a .357 and full fat .50 desert eagle with a friend of mine a few years back and an indoor range. The .357 was ok, but the 50 was just stupid as hell. Dramatic, but not actually much good. Also made a tactical error and was standing to the right of my friend so when he fired, the brass jumped the lane divider and smacked me in the forehead. Not fun.

Tangentially related- I got caught in the back blast of an AT4 once. It felt like my entire body got punched. 1/10, do not recommend.

Man. My only experienced with the at4 was in basic and I didn't even fire it. loving thing scared the gently caress out of me because it was basically two loving consecutive explosions to me though.
