Description[edit]

The Federated Suns-manufactured Barton Anti-Materiel Rifle came into its own during the Jihad. The Barton AMR is one of the heaviest sniper rifles in the Inner Sphere, although originally designed to destroy equipment, it was nicknamed the "Can Opener" by AFFS and allied forces of Stone's Coalition who used it effectively against the Word of Blake's armored cybernetic Manei Domini troopers. The anti-armor round developed for the Barton AMR is particularly effective but is only manufactured in limited quantities.[1]
