its not a semi automatic, but it has other features, so would it still be an assault weapon?

If it's a rifle chambered in 50BMG it is an "assault rifle" that is illegal to own in CA unless it was registered before the "ban.""The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."

If it's a .50 BMG rifle, then it is banned by itself whether or not it has other features.Comment

CA doesn't ban 50 BMG chambered firearms, just 50 BMG chambered rifles. If a gun is not a rifle (pistol, AOW, tripod mounted long gun, etc) it is not illegal for it to be chambered in 50 BMG.
So, theoretically you can build/buy a pistol chambered in 50 BMG, or even a semi-auto M2, which I've seen done."The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."

I'm pretty sure there are some laws against any caliber .50 or larger unless it's a shotgun...
so you could modify a .50BMG to .4999999BMG and it'd be ok

The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish?

Yep, you can own a .50 DTC rifle which has identical ballistics and uses the same load components. A number of manufacturers offer this caliber as an option. Or, you could go with an M2HB, but it doesn't have the same blast and overpressure fun factor and is way more $$.
What brand rifle is that in the video? The left side charging handle is unusual. That optic setup is spectacular!
