Michael Bane blogged this photo of the original Barrett M82 Prototype. I think I prefer this design to the later production models. It has a mean badass look to it with the oversized charging handle and chunky stock.

Wonder how the muzzle brake change from the original model to now has affected recoil and accuracy, or if it was just a cost-saving idea.
Looks like it's from Robocop.
