50 BMG upper on an AR pistol lower? On a tripod? Any thoughts?

Really wondering about the legality of the whole thing? I know you can get uppers. I know 50 BMG rifles are banned. I've heard stories about "ground guns" (tripod mounted) being legal. Just wondering.

[dotalchemy]

IANAL, but as far as I'm aware a semi-automatic variant of the M2 Browning would be legal as it's not a rifle, in that it's not shoulder fired.

Fascinating.

Fascinating.

You actually don't need a pistol lower to assemble it. A rifle lower would do just fine. It just can't have a shoulder stock. ie. only 50BMG shoulder fired rifles cannot be bought/manufactured by ca residents. (some exceptions apply) The spade grip or a pistol grip (I guess) would do although it mat give you some sore hands/wrists.

No pain, no gain. However, I think I would rather mount a .50BMG on a tripod.

Just trying to figure out the cheapest way to put together a tripod mounted 50BMG.
