Doing my usual forum scavenge I found a very interesting review on the greatly anticipated  Snow Wolf Barrett M82 Review, an affordable and full metal M82 replica, for me it looks very promising supposedly being about $300 when it is released. It features a standard V2 gearbox and a beast of a 650mm barrel,  you could buy one, upgrade it and still not have spent what you would have done on a Socom Gear Barrett M82. Great if you are on a budget but need to have this replica.
