Magnum Research ~ Desert Eagle ~ .44 MAG

The Desert Eagle is a single-action, gas-operated, semi-automatic pistol. Magnum Research Inc. designed and developed the Desert Eagle. The design was further refined (and was also manufactured) by Israel Military Industries (IMI), until 1995, when MRI shifted the manufacturing contract to Saco Defense, in Saco, Maine. In 1998, MRI moved manufacturing back to IMI, which later commercialized its small arms branch under the name Israel Weapon Industries. Since December 2009, the Desert Eagle pistol has been produced in the United States at MRI's Pillager, Minnesota, facility. Kahr Arms acquired Magnum Research in 2010. This is an early example and it comes with one magazine. Finish is good with the pistol showing little use and normal wear. A pistol that is a popular culture icon.
