The Robar RC-50 counter-sniper rifle is developed by the United States Robar Companies, Inc in Phoenix, Arizona. This anti-materiel weapon chambered the .50 BMG round and shares the same proprietary action for military forces, including the USSOCOM and Royal Malaysian Navy PASKAL. The weapon is found in two variants—the original RC-50 (RC-50 Standard) and the side-folding buttstock RC-50F.
