"I could kill a building with this thing"
You could. This type of gun is not intended primarily for use against people (although this particular gun might be modified to serve the role of a sniper rifle). It's for shooting aircraft and lightly armored vehicles. By that I don't mean cars; I mean armored personnel carriers. The bullets would go right through a building's walls.
I can't quickly find a photo of this gun's 12.7 mm bullet doing its thing, but here's what the very similar American 50 cal bullet does to six-inch-thick concrete:
I want one.
Edit: what I really want is one of those 20mm rifles that can take AA rounds. That'd be fucking sick. Just point it at something and boom! It's not a problem anymore!
Edit 2: the reason why I like obscenely high-caliber rifles is because it's fascinating to see all the different configurations that militaries have tried in an attempt to make a mobile, "hand-held" rifle capable of firing such a huge bullet without destroying the user's shoulder in the process.
Shoulder? Have you seen the power of recoilless weapons?
If they weren't recoilless, the person firing them wouldn't have a torso hahahahaha
Bitches love cannons.
Wow, I think that's a modified DShK, which entered service in 1938. It's not a museum piece - these guns are still in widespread use.
Similar role and similar longevity to the M2 machine gun.
Thinking of that girl cop in Vampire Hunter D. That rifle she has.
Seras Victoria is from Hellsing, and that's a 30mm anti tank rifle, a weapon that (as far as I know) doesn't exist. Even the bigger antitank rifles only went to 20mm.
Hellsing has the cop sniper with the mega cannon I think.
What's its name? Nobody has a gun like that and doesn't give it a name.

Meh, derivative.
That looks heavy.
The tactical vans are a great touch. I've got a pair and they're great shoes.
We still let COD players quickscope
- Activision probably
That thing afkomst looks like a LLM made up a machine gun
The "bad-day-alizer". When "more dakka" doesn't make whatever you're aiming at stop twitching.
