So far, My favorite part of owning a desert eagle is the plethora of information and videos on the pistol, so much so that I already knew what I was getting whenever I made my purchase. Cant say the same for alot of other not so common gun models like the FK BRNO 7.5, which turned out to be a total jamomatic in my hands.
I must say, I couldn't be happier with the customer service from Magnum Research. I had a slight issue when I ordered my "tune up kit" from Khar directly, unfortunately Kahr doesn't want to listen to the kind folks at Magnum that the L5 mk XIX has different springs from the 6" versions. The kind sir that I had the pleasure of dealing with (even replying to an email at 2am on a sunday!) absolutely had the passion (and knowledge) for customers and the product he was behind. Do not hesitate to contact them with any questions, I know that I will in the future.
He used the brush chrome in "Last Action Hero" and unless it was one of the ones that came after T2, the Terminator never used a DEagle. In "The Terminator" he used a .45 long slide, with a laser sight.
An AMT Hardballer longslide with early Surefire laser sight to be exact. The laser actually had an external battery pack that was on his waist with a wire running down his sleeve to the gun itself...
Magnum Research may be the saving grace for Kahr Arms. There production line in Minnesota is putting out the best quality out of all of Kahr Firearms Group. They also make some of the most innovative designs. Also there Israelis manufacturers like Bul LTD makes the NICEST 1911 for the price in the whole pistol market! The casted frames dont even look like casted frames they look like forged frames thats how good they are! Kahr should let Bul LTD make all there Kahr pistols if you ask me.
They should come out with one chambered in 475 Wildey magnum. In 2016, I bought their BFR 500 S&W, maybe I should get their other 50-caliber gun. MN is also home to Mike Lyndell's My Pillow!
I bet the family gets freebies and the other workers get an handsome discount on any of them..........i know if i was employed there, i would be purchasing a DE every payday.......have them laying around my house like cats & dogs !!! Good video 👍.........DE 50/44 combo is my next firearm for me, been wanting one since i was a youngin !!!
Mines an older model made in Israel. There have been claims of poor reliability. accuracy, etc. My personal experience, I’m more accurate with the .50ae desert Eagle than any other handgun I have fired in many different calibers. And even demonstrate pinpoint accuracy, even with double tapping. Never once jammed. Quality firearm indeed.
@@DreadnoughtHvor I disagree dude!!! I'm the proud owner of a Desert Eagle chambered in .44 Magnum and the very first time I took it out to the range last September, I used a box of 240-grain Jacketed Soft Points (50 rounds) from Magtech Ammunition, which was one of the recommended ammo types for this gun. And despite getting a very tight-grip on it, along with getting in a Weaver stance while avoiding potential limp-wristing, it still managed to jam and fail to eject spent cartridges once every few shots. May I remind you, the gun itself was brand new back then, and I rarely take it out (since ammo for it is hard to come by and/or is pricey as hell), so yeah, it's probably due to crappy ammo with a low(ish) FPS velocity that makes it not fully cycle.
I ordered one online 2 weeks ago.. right around the time everything started shutting down.. still "being processed".. i sure picked a bad time to decide to order one..
Magnum Reascher 1911G is a fine handgun, now so many articles are driving the price above $900.00. Well let me tell you there are better handguns in the$900.00 range, it's not priced as a mid-range 45acp.
Thankyou, odd that the guy who works there doesn't even know that correctly. Then again, this is coming from a guy who's been drooling over the desert eagle since he was a kid. 😂
awesome video! thanks for posting this insight. terrific! however, the top rail on the barrel ain't quite picatinny. i wish it was, though, would make life so much easier.
@7:47 "The rifling reduces the wear on the barrel, and enhances the seal between bullet and the bore." Um...what? No. Who the hell told her that? It imparts SPIN on the bullet.
I agree, however I think she may have left out some information or gotten it mixed up. "The rifling reduces the wear on the barrel, and enhances the seal between bullet and the bore." That's the two main features of a polygonal style rifling (vs conventional rifling), and the DE does have polygonal rifling. Maybe that's what they meant?
@@cxkh That's true, I hadn't considered that. Makes a lot of sense. I guess she just misspoke. I was just so taken aback by what I heard that I was dumbfounded. I had to back up the video and listen to that again like a double-take.
@@cxkh Good call! She could have stated it more clearly by ending with something to the effect of: "...versus conventional rifling techniques." This was a surprisingly good show, and wow! what a shop those guys have. Their CNC mill setup shown for the aluminum frame construction I thought was particularly impressive.
I don’t want to hate on Magnum Research, but they should have left all production of the Desert Eagle in Israel. Improving the manufacturing process is really them saying they found ways to cut as many corners as possible. The same corners that IWI didn’t cut for a reason.
They were making a stainless barrel and slide. Stainless steel is made of iron/chromium alloy. ... When you heat the entire barrel , iron reacts with oxygen in the air to give iron oxide which shows up as rust spot. The chromium reacts with oxygen in the air to give chromium oxide which appears to be black. Not really ideal for a nice polished finish
Can someone please explain to me if in a machining process slot of material in relation to the final product is removed, then why don't they start with a smaller original size? Seems like it would be cheaper and faster
You have to leave room for error. You can mill more off, you cant mill more on. So the stock has to meet the maximum tolerances/dimensions of all the sides and angles, and then some for potential error leeway
19:57..the gun has a lot of recoil ithink ..I mean the louvres in the room moved...when she was testing the gun..I have never shot any weapon but that says a lot about it
Anyone else look at the size of that Desert Eagle compared to her and her hands, and think she's gotta be tall? Those are some BIG guns, and it seems right at home in her hands.
7 minutes and 20 seconds, Charlie mentions all the guys will think he's a dork? Charlie, you were lifting weights with a hot blonde, how does that make you look like a dork?
Years ago I bought 3 1911 from this maker all 3 broke and had to be sent back some with a empty shell stuck in a seized chamber. Gun just froze up during shooting couldn't get them apart even with a hammer..
I have maginum research desert eagle BDE Iii 9mm full steel frame pistol made in isreal Bul limited.[ sold by maginum research i don't understand who actually produce this isreal or maginum research uSA . Any one please comment. Dr Zafar Hussaini from USA 🇺🇸
No it's not, because you're talking about Israel vs US in manufacturing guns. Not Japan and Europe in manufacturing cars. US is king for gun manufacture. Supras are lame by the way, they look awkward from virtually all angles.
Brett Stevens my desert eagle shoots great. I handed it to someone who never shot one and it jammed every time. I then shot it and it shot flawlessly. I told him to give it a firm grip and dont limp wrist. It shot flawless then.
The IMI israeli made mark1 were much nicer that overdone picatiny top & bottom just looks overdone, wanna be "tacticool" and breaks the original clean lines of the original
I’ve had zero issues with mine. I also run the recommended ammunition through it, use the proper technique to shoot it and maintain it properly. But yeah, I guess they’re POS
but wasn't the original IMI/IWI Desert Eagles plagued with the same jamming issues that the ones designed by Magnum Research? I only ask this question, is because I own a Mark-XIX Desert Eagle in .44 Magnum and it's a great gun to have in one's collection!!! However, I have noticed that the gun will occasionally have jamming issues, even when you're not limp-wristing it and using the recommended ammo brands. So with that said, coming from personal experience, the most success i've had with this gun, is using cartridges from Underwood Ammo. As their products were spicy enough to fully cycle the gun without too much trouble.
I have to completely disagree. I've had my 50ae Desert Eagle for almost a year now and haven't had a single issue. I shoot it all the time and i've had more issues with my Glock 43x than the Desert Eagle
