Alexander Arms is the originator of the large caliber AR15 style weapon concept.
As the leader in the field, we are constantly improving upon the design. As a
consequence, we manufacture industry leading, 100% reliable weapons you can
depend your life on. We have an intimate understanding of the function of both
the rifle and the ammunition and have in-depth data on both internal, external
and terminal ballistics. In a world of followers - we lead.
The .50 Beowulf® was designed to generate devastating stopping power at short
to moderate ranges. Combining the rugged reliability of the AR15/M16 style weapons
with a unique .500 inch projectile and cartridge, this semi automatic weapon is
unsurpassed as a close quarter combat weapon on battlefields in the Middle East.
It doesn’t stop there. This unique weapon is equally at home in the brush, capable
of knocking down virtually anything you may run across. For wild pig hunting the rifle
is without equal and is being used not only by hunters, but by game control agencies
as well. The combination of heavy large diameter bullets, moderate velocities and
100% reliability enables the Beowulf® to tackle the largest game found in North America
and it has been used against Elk, Buffalo and Bear with superb results.
Providing a semi automatic, light carbine with the performance of the venerable 45-70
rifle, the .50 Beowulf® has found wide acceptance with Military and Law Enforcement
agencies. The external ballistics of the Beowulf® cartridge are well suited to urban
environments where the shorter range template allows for more flexible application and
the large projectile energy delivered by the ammunition can disable both motor vehicles
and assailants with body armor. Windscreen glass does not affect the trajectory of the
bullet nor does automotive body panels.
The combination of devastating stopping power and absolute reliability in a lightweight,
familiar form factor, the .50 Beowulf® rifle from Alexander Arms is simply without equal.
