New for 2016, Magnum Research introduces the Desert Eagle Mark XIX with Aluminum Frame. This popular gas-operated pistol features a 6" stainless steel barrel, as well as a Weaver style accessory rail and integral muzzle brake.
I bought this gun last week and finally had a chance to take it to the range. WOW. This is now my favorite gun. If it wasn't so overpowered I would use it for my everyday carry weapon. I purchased the cheapest 300 grain 50AE rounds I could find on the internet. I would classify myself as an average shooter. I shot 75 rounds with out any problems. The recoil from this gun is very manageable. In fact, when I got home I realized I shot 75 rounds in about 30 minutes and never noticed any sore wrist or hands.
The fit and finish is perfect. The tear down and cleaning is a sinch. You can literally take this gun apart in 10 seconds or less.
I am so impressed with this gun I am seriously thinking about getting another. I just purchased the 44 Mag barrel from Magnum Research tonight so I can shoot either round. Hope the new barrel works as well as the 50AE barrel.
