What I do not understand is that this guy bought over 100 guns, ONE of which happened to be a .50 cal. I am willing to bet that more people will be killed with the other 99 guns than will be killed with the .50 cal.
As far as the .50 cal taking out an airplane, it probably could, just as it could take out a tank if the shooter is using depleted uranium rounds. Now, taking out a plane flying through the air will require a lot of skill, and I doubt that the terrorists will have that level of skill. Heck, I doubt that the majority of military snipers have that level of skill.
SOMEBODY PLEASE POST ONE INCIDENT OF A PLANE BEING BROUGHT DOWN BY A .50 CAL THAT IS A SNIPER RIFLE AND NOT FULLY AUTO.
