I happen to have a Desert Eagle, 44 magnum. I bought it at a time when the Clinton Administration was banning handguns based on weight, and I was certain this would be the next gun to be banned. It wasn't.
I have shot it a handful of times, but honestly, 44 magnum is expensive to shoot. As for the gun, mine is an XIX and it is well made. Decent SA trigger, and recoil isn't anything like you would experience with a revolver. Heavy, and big in the hand, too. I've thought about selling/trading it over the years, but because it is well made and a nice bit of engineering, I can't bring myself to part with it.
I will say this, however, I have to question why anyone would carry a Desert Eagle, when they could carry a 10mm with 15 rounds.
I see your point.
You are very logical.
I will agree with you.
