Barrett, makers of the semi-automatic .50 BMG-chambered M107 rifle, recently announced its donation of 95 REC7 DI rifles to be distributed among Tennessee county sheriff’s offices and departments. Chris Barrett said, “As lifelong Tennesseans and builders of the Barrett Model 82A1/M107, the ‘Official State Rifle of the State of Tennessee,’ we are proud to build every one of these rifles in Tennessee. We believe that the sheriffs can use these rifles as they enforce the laws around this great state.”
