HI, I'm Festus and I OWN a Desert Eagle...

This support group will meet as required in order for us to maintain our NEED for Desert Eagle info.

Built by Israelis because they understand the need to drop a bad-guy first time every time.

My DE is a 44 mag. It is a fun shooter. The best thing I like about it is: it forces good recoil control and good handling practices. Limp wrist this and it will stovepipe every time. When I can run 4-5 mags with out a malfunction I am doing it right.

I prefer to use it as my training tool. My 45acp recoil control and back on target is smoother shots are quicker tighter groups.

I would not use this as personal defense because of the solid stances required.

It a toy and I got it because I always wanted one not knowing it a good training tool.

That is a problem with any huge caliber Auto. The 44automag was notorius for unmanageable recoil.

WOW you would never guess it had a recoil problem watching girls in the movies shoot it 1 handed.

44 mag is a very favorite of mine. I carried a Ruger Super Blackhawk in Alaska did not leave home without it. Sold it before returning to lower 48 and NY's oppressive laws. Have another Ruger actually 2 in 44.

The DE I had always wanted had never shot one and had never seen anyone shot one for real. It is a fist full. I shoot it pretty damn good. Learning to handle/control the recoil was the best feeling I've gotten. The DE has improved all of my 45acps I shoot. I shoot my 45's much faster better control and better hits.
