Is the Desert Eagle suitable for self-defense?
While the Desert Eagle is primarily designed for hunting and target shooting due to its size and weight, some individuals may consider it for self-defense. However, its large frame and heavy recoil make it less practical for everyday carry compared to more compact firearms.
How does the Desert Eagle perform in terms of accuracy and reliability?
The Desert Eagle is known for its accuracy, owing to its fixed barrel design and robust construction. However, users must maintain a proper grip to ensure reliable operation, as “limp-wristing” can cause the slide not to cycle correctly.
