Magnum Research Desert Eagle Pistol, .44 Magnum, 5-Inch, Lightweight

The Magnum Research Desert Eagle pistol in .44 Magnum with a lightweight black aluminum frame, black steel slide, 5-inch barrel, and integral muzzle brake (brand part no. DE44L5IMB) is a gas-operated, rotating-bolt semi-automatic that trims weight without sacrificing the Desert Eagle’s signature power. Magnum Research pairs a full Weaver-style accessory rail with polygonal rifling on a right-hand twist of one turn in 18 inches, supporting consistent accuracy. Combat-type fixed sights with an 8.5-inch sight radius give a long, stable sight picture, and the single-action trigger breaks at approximately 4 pounds. Among lightweight-frame semi-auto handguns, this Desert Eagle .44 Magnum configuration favors shooters who want a more portable big-bore platform.
