The Desert Hawkeye is a gas-operated, semi-automatic pistol known for chambering the .l Action Express, the largest centerfire cartridge of whatsoever magazine-fed, self-loading pistol.

Magnum Research Inc. (MRI) designed and adult the Desert Eagle. The design was farther refined by (and was too 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 afterward commercialized its modest artillery branch nether 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.[3] Kahr Arms acquired Magnum Research in 2010.

Magnum Research has marketed various versions of the brusque recoil Jericho 941 pistol nether the Babe Eagle and Desert Eagle Pistol names; these weapons are not directly related to the Desert Eagle but share a like visual blueprint.[4]

Design [edit]

Interchangeable barrels for a Desert Eagle Mark I

The blueprint for the Desert Eagle was initiated by Bernard C. White of Magnum Inquiry and Arnolds Streinbergs of Riga Artillery Institute, who filed a US patent application for a mechanism for a gas-actuated pistol in January 1983.[5] This established the bones layout of the Desert Hawkeye. A second patent application was filed in December 1985, afterwards the bones design had been refined by IMI Systems (Israel Military Industries) for product, and this is the form that went into production.[6]

The pistol is fired by a single activeness hammer, and has a manual safety switch on the slide. The ambidextrous safety switch rotates a drum machinery which sits over the firing pivot, causing the firing pivot to lock in, which prevents it from moving forward and reduces the possibility of the gun discharging accidentally. With the safe off, pulling the trigger releases the hammer to fall downwardly, hitting the firing pin and causing the chambered round to discharge.

The Desert Eagle uses a gas-operated ejection/chambering machinery normally found in rifles, as opposed to the short recoil or blowback designs virtually ordinarily seen in semi-automatic pistols. When a round is fired, gases are ported out through a small hole in the butt in forepart of the sleeping accommodation. These travel forrad through a pocket-size tube under the barrel, to a cylinder underneath the front of the barrel. The slide, which acts as the commodities carrier, has a small piston on the forepart that fits into this cylinder. When the gases achieve the cylinder, the piston pushes the slide rearward, with a big pivot inside the camming surface in the rear of the commodities causing the bolt to rotate and unlock. A mechanism on the left side of the bolt prevents the bolt from rotating freely as the slide moves, forcing information technology to remain aligned correctly with the butt while the breech is open. The spring-loaded ejector is continually beingness depressed by the case, until the case is free of the chamber and the tension from the ejector is released, causing the case to eject, breaking complimentary of the extractor in the process. The slide reaches its rearmost position, then moves forward again nether tension of the recoil springs. The bottom lug of the bolt pushes a new round into the bedchamber, then the bolt locks up and the gun tin can be fired again.

The rotating commodities has three radial locking lugs (the fourth lug is only for pushing the adjacent round in the sleeping accommodation), with the extractor on the right hand side fitting where the 5th lug would be, and strongly resembles the 7-lug bolt of the M16 serial of rifles, while the fixed gas cylinder/moving piston resemble those of the Ruger Mini-14 carbine (the original patent used a convict piston similar to the M14 rifle).[three] [4]

The advantage of the gas operation is that it allows the use of far more powerful cartridges than traditional semi-automatic pistol designs. Thus it allows the Desert Eagle to compete in an area that had previously been dominated by Magnum revolvers. Downsides of the gas-operated mechanism are the large size of the Desert Hawkeye, and the fact that information technology discourages the use of unjacketed lead bullets, every bit lead particles sheared off during firing could clog the gas release tap, preventing proper role.[4]

Switching a Desert Eagle to another chambering requires only that the correct barrel, bolt associates, and mag be installed. Thus, a conversion to fire other cartridges tin exist quickly accomplished. The rim diameter of the .50 AE (Activeness Express) is the aforementioned every bit the .44 Remington Magnum cartridge, consequently only a barrel and magazine modify is required to convert a .44 Desert Eagle to the larger, more powerful .l AE round.[3] [iv] The almost popular butt length is 6 in (152 mm), although a 10 in (254 mm) butt is bachelor. The Mark XIX barrels are machined with integral scope mounting bases, simplifying the process of adding a pistol scope.

The Desert Hawkeye is fed with a detachable magazine. Mag capacity is 9 rounds in .357 Magnum, viii rounds in .44 Magnum, and seven rounds in .50 Activeness Limited. The Desert Eagle's butt features polygonal rifling. The pistol is primarily used for hunting, target shooting, and silhouette shooting.[3] [four]

Variants [edit]

Marking I and VII (Mark 1 & 7) [edit]

The Mark I, which is no longer produced, was offered with a steel, stainless steel or aluminum alloy frame and differs primarily in the size and shape of the safety levers and slide grab.[four] The Mark Seven includes an adaptable trigger (retrofittable to Mark I pistols). The Marker I and 7 are both bachelor in .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum; the Marker Seven has been chambered for .41 Magnum. The barrels had a 3eight " dovetail, to which an accessory mount could be attached. Later Marking VII models were offered in .50 Action Express with a 78 " Weaver-pattern rail on the barrel; the .50 Mark Seven would later become the Mark XIX. Barrel lengths were six, x, and 14 inches[iv] for .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum, but but 6 or 10 inches for .41 Magnum.

Mark 19 (Marker nineteen) [edit]

Desert Hawkeye Mark XIX (Mark 19) in .fifty AE

The most recent model, the Mark XIX, is available in .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, 429 DE (introduced 2018) and .50 Activeness Express (or .50 AE). This model comes in a multifariousness of different finishes, such every bit brushed chrome or titanium gilt. Magnum Research offered this model in .440 Cor-Bon quotient, a .50 AE derived instance. There were fewer than 500 original .440 Cor-Bon Desert Eagles imported into U.South. in December 2000. These are marked by the number 440 on the left lower side of the barrel, in numerals twice the size of other calibers, and without the preceding flow. A number of .44 Magnum barrels were re-chambered to produce .440 Corbon barrels, but these can be identified by the off-centered ".440" (with period) produced past adding the concluding 0 to the original barrel marker.

Mark XIX barrels are available in 6-inch (150 mm) and x-inch (250 mm) lengths only.[4] 357 Magnum barrels accept exterior barrel flutes on the left, right and pinnacle sides of the barrel. .44 Magnum barrels have flutes on the left and right side only, not on the meridian. The .fifty AE barrels have no flutes.

All current-production Mark 19 models except for the CA canonical model have a Picatinny runway forth the top of the barrel, as opposed to the Dovetail rail on previous models. Selected Mark XIX models have ported barrels and/or under-barrel picatinny track.

The DE44CA (Desert Eagle .44 Magnum California) is the only Xix model canonical for dealer sales to the public in the State of California.[7] The CA approved version differs from the regular XIX models in that information technology has an automatic firing pin block and a two slot Weaver style rails for mounting eyes.

In pop culture [edit]

The Desert Eagle has been featured in more than six hundred films, boob tube shows and video games, making it well known in pop culture.[9] The commercial success of the pistol is due in part to its utilize in films, co-ordinate to Magnum Enquiry chairman and CEO John Risdall.[ten] According to a 1994 newspaper article, the company actively solicited prop houses to use the gun.[ten] By 2000, it had been used in over xl films, including The Matrix, [eleven] Eraser, Cherry Estrus, Last Activeness Hero, Cliffhanger, Demolition Man, Assassins, The Last Boy Scout, Double Affect, and Austin Powers.[ten]
