    Default New toy

    Just picked this one up recently Desert Eagle .44 magnum semi-auto less than 20rds down the pipe. I figure if I run outta rounds I can always beat the attacker with it lol.

    That thing is a beast, I've always wanted to shoot one of those just to say I did.

    My friend has one, shorter barrel, in 50AE. It's not so much a pistol as a small field artillery piece. The feel of slingshotting that massive slide is completely different than any other pistol. And forget grouping; offhand, rapid fire, keeping all the shots on paper is an accomplishment. 'Course as FO said, if you don't hit anything you've still got a massive club in your hand. Fun to shoot, but I don't know if I'd own one.

    Yeah I liked it alot more before I owned it. Nothing really wrong with it, just not really my "style" so to speak. I'll probably dump it on a trader board, I really wish the barter system would come back in full force lol.

    Trading with pistols is a pain b/c you must complete PICS check on both ends. At least you bought the 44...which is cheaper to shoot than the 50AE. I am a small guy, so I wouldn't buy a large autoloader.

    WOW... you could shoot the clouds out of the sky with that thing!
