Will this eventually be sold directly by Barrett on their website?
What happened to the IMI ammo? Is there any real difference between the brands?

Thanks

This is genuine Lake City XM33 ammunition packed in a brand new M2A1 ammo can with the Barrett logo stenciled on the side.

This is government contract ammunition with recent headstamps (07, 08) and is no longer available from Lake City - we bought the last of it due to the uncertain nature of the ammunition industry this year. There is no indication that XM33 will be available again for commercial sales at this time.

This is currently available from our industry partners listed in the top post of this thread. It is not available through the Barrett webstore at this time.

Thats disappointing, I was looking for a case and I cant find it I was hoping Barrett would sell some on its web store. Barrett should sell all their .50 ammo in 120 count Barrett Ammo Cans. JMHO :poke: 8-)

Eventually found my way to the ammo through the RST link, no pricing or ordering though. MGE said "out of stock." Never found anything useful at all through the AcuSport link.

Just saying, JC
