Fit and finish were great and fast shipping from bud's.

Love the weapon would like to have another!

The desert eagle is a one of a kind shooting experience! Great weapon, fun to shoot!! I fired it 25 times first week out at range. Cannot wait to get back! Experience with Bud’s was top notch, and I had no issues with any aspect of the transaction. This was a gun I had my eye on for a few years, and I am glad I decided to finally pull the trigger on buying it! The DE Mark XIX .50 is a must have for any collector, or enthusiast. Be prepared to draw some interest when you bring it to the range, it’s a one of s kind!!

I ordered this beast on Saturday evening and it was at my ffl dealer by Tuesday morning! They don't waste any time shipping your firearm. The prices beat competitors 99% of the time and they will match if you do find a better price. As for this hand cannon it's beautiful and awesome to shoot. All eyes on you at the range with this bad boy! What else can I say... Buds is the Best!

It's big, pretty, loud, and blows smoke rings. I wouldn't rely on it for any more than a good time at the range, but it is good at that.

Most fun range toy that gets the attention you need. It is a lot of range fun shooting it. The recoil is better than S&W 629 revolver with 44 magnum. I still wouldn't say it is manageable for practical tactical shooting though. Quality is high, cleaning is simple. Most malfunction is due to limp wrist for sure. Love this gun.

The one and only Desert Eagle. The hand howitzer. The rifle in a hand gun package. It is big, It is heavy, and it is beautiful! It is a blast to shoot, but not for the faint of heart. This gun makes no sense to own. It is too big to carry, too loud and too expensive to shoot. And I love it!

As I state in my other reviews, you will, #1, not beat Bud's pricing. If somehow you do, they will 9/10 price match it . This firearm was a great buy. No one else could touch the price and Bud's was pretty fast on their shipping and as always, easy and painless. I will start by addressing my issue with this buy, which was not by any means Bud's fault. When my pistol arrived, I got home and noticed it had a few minor scratches on the slide, as well as a small dull machining mark on the slide where it had appeared the "Brushed Chrome" process was flawed. This may not seem like a big deal due to the fact it's a "tool", not a collector piece... However, I paid a hefty price for it, so I kind of expected nothing less than flawlessness out of the box. I contacted Magnum Research in reference to the issue. They asked me to email some pictures and emailed me an overnight shipping label. I dropped it off at Fed Ex and 2 weeks later I had my gun back with a brand new slide and no issues or hassle about it. I won't get into accuracy or anything like that. The gun is only as accurate and effective as your skills. I have no issues with it at all, it shoots true. Reliability - Right out of the box, I have only shot Speer 350GR Gold Dots and the 300GR Hornandy XTP's. The gun eats it up without issue. The only issue I have experienced is the slide locking back while shooting due to me switching to thinner Vogue G10 grips and my thumb pushing up on the slide lock while firing. Don't be scared of this gun. You see all the YouTube videos of people smacking themselves in the face and losing control of it. This is not at all reality. You're seeing someone hand a new shooter a gun they have no business handling because they want a "cool" YouTube video to show their friends they shot a "Deagle". The gas system and rolling bolt like an AR really makes for a VERY smooth action, anyone can shoot this gun. The trigger pull is very crisp and is probably around 4-5 pounds max. I'm thrilled with my purchase. the Brushed Chrome is the perfect finish for this gun. It's not gaudy like the gold and its not "cheap" or basic looking like the black. Magnum Research also boasts its the most durable of all their finishes. Hope my review helps your decision!

It came today and i can't stop picking it up. It's absolutely awesome. It's completely impractical but GET ONE! You won't regret it if you can spare the cash. (And i haven't even shot it yet. ..that's tomorrow!).

Got my DE and the first thing I did was tear it down and clean it. It was very clean and free of excess lube. The workmanship is awesome. Tear down is easy. On to the way it shoots. This thing is very heavy (over 4lbs) and is big. I was a little concerned that the grip might be way too large to comfortably hold, but found it to be comfortable even with my medium sized hands. The brushed chrome finish looks exactly like stainless, just what I wanted. The safety is a little awkward as is the massive slide, not surprising in a weapon this size. I am in the habit of smacking the magazine home like my 1911s, but don't do it with this one as the magazine can get stuck. The first four shots I took didn't even cut paper. I was anticipating massive recoil that wasn't there. I mean really, with the weight of this thing, not bad at all. Just keep a firm grip. Don't really understand all the videos of people virtually having the gun jump out of their hands and hitting themselves in the noggin. I had no malfunctions whatsoever and am very satisfied.
