Lookie lookie here!

The NRA are giving a grant to Orlando police for two, count 'em, two .50 cal Barrett sniper rifles:

The Orlando Police Department soon could have two sniper rifles more common on the battlefields of Afghanistan than in an American city, if a grant from the NRA comes through.

The Barrett M95 sniper rifle has an effective range of more than a mile and fires a high-powered .50-caliber round that can penetrate a fortified bunker or a car's engine block.

There's no love lost between me and the NRA, but I've got to question whether a municipal SWAT team actually needs any .50 cals.

Not to mention why the fuck is the NRA buying them?
