My brother has the 44 Mag Version of the Desert Eagle. Awesome pistol, incredibly well designed, surprisingly low recoil and accurate to 75 yards. We were hitting a 4" PVC pipe at 150 yards 2 out of 5 shots. Not bad for duffers. The Smith and Wesson 357 can't touch it. Very few moving pieces, easy to strip and clean....also incredibly expensive. But, pistols in general and automatics especially give me the willies. Revolvers are a bit less intimidating to me, but rifles leave me a lot more compfortable. Of course, all of the marines I know would really, really, really like to have one. Now, if I can just catch that possum that has been raiding my garbage cans....
