Trivia[]
- The MBP .50 is based on the Hard Target Interdiction anti-material rifle, a rifle produced by Desert Tech.[1]
- The gold variant mentions the trend of the well-off having a lot of expensive guns that they never use.
- Jacob's rifle points out that Jacob killed a lot of people with it, as you'd have to surpass his own kill count to be able to finally call it "your" rifle.
- It shares the same ruby-red coloration as Jacob's custom plane, the Pack Hunter.
- A Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon themed variant, the "Blood & Dragon" was added in title update 11.[2]
- Oddly, the MBP .50, SA-50, and D50 share the same ammunition pool; while the rifles fire the large .50 BMG cartridge, the D50 fires the smaller .50 Action Express cartridge. This was likely done for gameplay purposes, as adding an entirely new ammo type for one weapon would have not been feasible.
