Magnum Research Baby Desert Eagle- "The Hebrew Hammer"

[august1410]

I picked this up yesterday from a forum member in a trade and I'm quite impressed with this beast. Imagine a CZ on steroids, with a weight problem and an appetite for .45 ACP. Made in Israel, this pistol was immediately dubbed "The Hebrew Hammer" much to my wife's dismay.

This pistol is heavy. I've had some other heavy guns before, but this one takes the cake. Steel frame and slide. Two double stack 10 round magazines. 1913 rail with 4 slots.

Got it out today for a function test and it did pretty well. The CZ ergonomics make it naturally accurate. I'm not a bad shooter, but I'm no expert. Rounds went where I wanted them to go.

I’m sure I’ll hold onto the pistol for a while….or until something else interests me.

Magnum Research stretches the "Desert Eagle" moniker as far as they can. My Magnum Research 10MM 1911 is also a Desert Eagle model.

Yes they do! In no way do I think of this pistol as a Desert Eagle. I prefer Baby Eagle or the nickname I hung on it. Even then, I’ve been referring to it as The Hammer.

Thanks again, bud.

Truly a beauty.

I actually like the rail-less frames more but those are so much more expensive. Cowboy Bebop syndrome.

CZ Chech style gun made by BUL, chambered in The Lord's caliber.

It's a perfect storm of winning.
