You can also expand the command register in-line. Type :, you get the selection markers added automatically, then type Ctrl-r followed by : to insert a copy of the last command line. (See :help quote_: for info on this and other registers and :help c_CTRL-R for info on what that keystroke does in command mode.)

I'm afraid you didn't understand my question. Yes I know I can operate on the visual selection by just selecting some lines and typing :, which will automatically insert :'<,'> to the command line, BUT I would have to type the whole g/^.\{1,50\}$/m$ command again after that, and that is what I'm trying to avoid here.
