I have a Desert Eagle 44 magnum - just flat black (more my taste). The heavy barrel on this thing doesn't get all that warm and because its gas operated, the slide and other parts don't heat up at all. The recoil on the 44 magnum DE isn't bad at all - much more mild than shooting 44 out of a revolver, even a lot more mild than shooting 357 out of a revolver. I've never shot a 50AE, but I doubt it is all that much different than the 44 magnum, just because of the design of the pistol.Squatchman » 13 Jun 2022, 11:24 pm » wrote: ↑ That's quite a good looking camo job.
But wouldn't the fire coming out of that thing burn it off?
I wonder how many times a guy could shoot it before he said he's had enough?
I don't think the finish will degrade, but the people who have these guns really don't shoot them a lot anyway.
The DE's are huge and impractical, but actually good shooters if you can get used to the big grip.
