Great reason to own a .50AE. I used to tell people I needed it in case I was mugged by 4 guys standing behind one another, but I like your Chevy logic better- Thx.
Although the 300 gr has some umph, all that energy is displaced once it gets through the 8 gauge sheet metal of the vehicle and associated equipment mounted in between the engine and the side panel
My first experience with Desert Eagle was 2015 when I reviewed the first stainless steel Desert Eagle with integral comp and I became a fan right away. I bought the test sample when I was done with the review. Nice video man.
Hey, just wanna add something here concerning the part where you weigh the pistols. (I don't know if this was corrected at any point in the video, because I stopped it at 2:30 to make this comment.) That's not "4.59" and "3.12" lbs. That's 4 lbs, 5.9 oz and 3 lbs, 11.2 oz. That means there's actually less than one pound difference between the two, according to your scale.
Thanks Big Daddy really enjoy these videos . I bet if you polish those slides with some 1200 grit paste it will quit going out of battery like that .Plus you know it will get sweeter the more its worked .
First shot of the video, it jammed. I've had that happen to my l5. Call Mag Research and have it sent off and see if they will upgrade the spring system. Since I've had it done it runs none stop.
I noticed your slide needs to be pushed forward too on the first couple rounds with a full mag. Is that just until they break in? I don't even have 40 rounds through mine yet.
Aluminum frame seems like its not going to last long if your an active shooter. How many rounds if it's 8 if rather get the 44 magnum full loads revolver or shoot the ..500S&W
My favourite four carry guns are: 50AE Deagle, MK-23 .45 ACP, Five Seven 5.7x28 pistol, and a Sig Saur .357 semi automatic, not sure why people say the deagle is a bad carry gun, the light one in this video is great to carry.
if its a legal shoot he isnt gonna be in court. if its a legal shoot and a legal gun to own then its irrelevant what you used. deadly force is deadly force, there is no law about overkill.
Hornady .50 300 grain fully loaded bullet. Sells at $1.40 per round. Other manufacturers of a 660-700 grain fully loaded .50 sells for between $2.99-$6.99 a round. That's way off from $140.00 per round. Heck a single fully loaded JDJ .950 round. Sells for $40.00. Yet the Nitro .700 fully loaded single 1,000 grain round sells for $73.00.00-$125-$250.00. 2,000Feet per second with 8,900LBS of muzzle energy.
How positively does your safety engage and release? If it engages very tightly, and only releases with a determined press and with a snap and a mechanical click, then you may be all right to carry cocked and with a round chambered. But I have a Tanfoglio with a somewhat mushy safety. There are times when I draw the weapon or pick it up, and the safety has disengaged on me without me knowing it prior. It's too light. I would not be comfortable carrying cocked, at all.
I've got several of these crazy things - and I want MORE. I need to move to the south. You 'folk look like a good time to me! I always smile and laugh when I watch ur vids Brother Hoffman!
That's a nice looking tent back there. Looks military surplus. Made out of the good stuff. They shed the rain when I was in Vietnam. Out in the jungle, it would get so dark that I could not see ANYTHING. Nothing. Black and no adjustment going on in my eyeballs. Funny, how I thought nothing about what may be crawling around. I was only concerned if Charles was slithering nearby. People from Haiti can see in the dark. When I'm in Florida, it's nothing to see a whole car load of those shore upstanding south Florida citizens driving without benefit of headlights.
Did you have issues putting in mag after finger grip install?? I recently ordered and the magazine doesn’t slide in after install, I took back off and reinstalled original.
The Ammo they are using is Notorious for being slightly out of spec and the gun also runs better wet.... I own 2 so I kinda know what I’m talking about!
The reason the desert eagle 50 is heavy is to help with the recoil, it doesn’t matter how much it weighs if you can’t hit anything with it I’m sure these guys had fun but they are far from experts
No, I still have the other two.....no plans to ever sell them. This is a T&E pistol that we seen at Shot Show 2016. Going to be hard to send it back....lol. Thanks!!!
I'd love to see a L5 or L6 version in .44 Mag... that would be great (even better if they would also come in stripped black). However, I wonder if it's still possible to change caliber between the L6 .50AE and the .357 Mag version like on regular XIX Desert Eagle. Do you know anything about that?
Hey guys. i've got a question. are you able to carry this type of weapons everyday freely on the streets? for self defense or something like that? i mean, shit is a 50cal pistol if you shoot it at a bandit you probably rip out one part of body and send it to fly. im talking without any knowledge about guns (more than the videogames an such can give me) and also im not living on USA or any country with easy access to guns so... yeah that was my question. also i love your channel BD1911 keep the good work.
@@harryjoe860 - Should really only carry the .50 out in the country. If you have to shoot a BG out there and it overpenetrates because it's a .50, then so be it. But it's just too risky in the city. That's why I will go with a .44 version if I ever buy one. You can use a mag of lower-powered (but still very hot) criminal loads for EDC in town, or swap in a mag of full-powered critter loads for a trip to the woods.
@@texasbeast239 I carry so many different guns all i can tell you is 99% of the time unless you are in like a night club you don't have to worry about hitting someone if you can aim center mass
I noticed most if the shots it wasn't going back into battery. Was this because it's new or do you think it's an L6 issue. I'm asking because I haven't decided on one or the other.
BigDaddyHoffman1911 that's kinda what I figured. I love Desert Eagles, even though they tend to get a bad rap in some circles. How do you like it compared to the stock model?
I have a shoulder holster for mine, and it hangs from my armpit down to my waist. A friend carries his on his belt. The problem is not keeping it concealed, it's keeping it from going thru the 3 folks standing in back of the bad guy you just shot! That said, it's a great gun for the range, lots of fun to shoot and it does make a lot of noise. I think everyone should have at least one...
@@philapop5269 - A .44 would allow you to select EDC-safe loads and animal loads for the field. I don't think a .50 gives you that kind of versatility unless you reload.
@@texasbeast239 Curious as to what kinds of 44 Mag ammo would conduce to safer bad guy takedown without the risk of harming innocents. 225 grain? Or something if that order?
Desert eagles are known for that problem. When i first shot mine, i noticed when that it would successfully cycle more consistently when i didn't fight the recoil. So it should work better if you don't stiff arm it too much.
That and don't put the cheapest ammo you can find through it. It won't cycle proper if you do that. I recommend reading the manual, which states exactly what kind of ammo the Deagle prefers.
Just over 3 and a half pounds? Too heavy to carry. If it was just under 3 and half pounds though. Hehehe.... What is it, Desert Eagle Day? The Firearm Guy shows off his DEs and now you are too! :)
It's weird how the L5 .357 has all kinds of cutouts and fluting to help save weight, but the L6 does not. I guess the big cartridge called for a stronger slide and they couldn't compromise it the same way? The Kahr website now claims 4lb6oz for the standard and 3lb7oz for the L6.

That was great fellas. Yeah you guys would have crushed me if you had that beauty
+TheFireArmGuy :). There is always this year my friend ;)
I am going to let this one speak for itself... Sweet...Sweet...Sweet...
this is beautiful gun. How is the recoil compared to your other gun. And does this one also have a quick change barrel accessory?
Thanks Big Daddy really enjoy these videos . I bet if you polish those slides with some 1200 grit paste it will quit going out of battery like that .Plus you know it will get sweeter the more its worked .
which one do you prefer? this or the Mark XIX all stainless?
plus, why did you guys keep pushing the slide forwards?, it doesn't go all the way forward?
BigDaddyHoffman1911 Your Desert Eagle (the old one) , can you kindly tell me the model?
Dessert E. are very cool. Wouldn't mind having one.
2:32 Especially someone who is in his twilight years like you. That was epic

The Desert Eagle is a work of art
You NEED this in Chicago as a back up and a .50 BMG as a daily carry.
as long you can make it work keep concealing it more power to you sir

The L5 is lighter and 1 inch shorter barrel. .357 with a .50 conversion barrel coming out next year.

I have an L5 .357 (3.16 lbs). My only question is do you rest the hammer on a hot chamber, or would you pull and rack it?

Did you have issues putting in mag after finger grip install?? I recently ordered and the magazine doesn’t slide in after install, I took back off and reinstalled original.
The L6 comes with the finger grooves molded into the grip. They are not installed afte the fact like the Hogue rubber grip module for the OG Deagles.
Cool, but I still prefer the original boat anchor.
Yah i always carry around this weapon, in case i get muffed by a bear...
"Hey, hey, hey, Boo-boo!" --Yogi
Awesome! That is a handful there!
50 caliber is power !

100% bro👌🏼😂
thats a beast
LOL a carry gun...good for the movie stars. Fire Starter.
Nice gun tbh
like it more with the polymer(i guess its polymer? or the black thing u know eh) alot more than the normal one
looks pretty cool
The L6 has an aluminium frame instead of solid stainless.
I want a 50AE Carnine
very sweet desert eagle 50cal cherry pie!
My .44 L6 is on the way
Awesome weapon.
That's bad ass

No, I still have the other two.....no plans to ever sell them. This is a T&E pistol that we seen at Shot Show 2016. Going to be hard to send it back....lol. Thanks!!!
Great review of the L6 DE pistol but hey BigDaddy you starting to look like Santa Clause with the beard and all I almost didn't recognize you,lol
browsing online for one. all sold out except gb'ker and just a couple three of them as of posting.
Love that pistol
Thanks Tim.
Seemed like it was having trouble going into battery.
But must the cartridge always hits you between the eyes?

so thats the difference between the israeli era and the kahr / german era?

Even though I don’t see the target..

Hey BDH --- what did you do for a living before you retired? Just wonderin'.
It's so sunny at night
Yeah.....lol
Whats the deal with the failures to go into battery? I counted at least 6 and 1 magazine failure during loading. Why didn't you discuss those?
New pistol right out of the box and hp ammo. Started to run much better after a few rounds. Thanks!!!
Do you actually EDC this gun?
nice!
Just about every shot jammed the gun, was it lubed
+rangerover06sc no lube. Out of the box. Started to run much better after a few rounds.
+BigDaddyHoffman1911 Where your other Desert Eagles like that too? Also how does the recoil compare to yours
+rangerover06sc yes, they are all like that. At least the ones I have shot. Recoil is about the same. The grips on the L6 REALLY help
did u think of trying underwood ammo??
Is it legal to open/conceal the 50 for self defense?
+tweed187187 absolutely
tweed187187 is it practical? No. But can you? Hell yeah.
Yeah, but a bit absurd. Kinda like using a semi truck as a daily driver.
Almost all EDC guns are a PITA. It comes down to how committed you are to the lifestyle, and how much inconvenience you're willing to endure.
awesome big gun
I agree 100%, they always make for a fun day on the range. Thanks Tony...!!!
3.11 pounds? That is a huge improvement.
Thanks for this.
3 lb 11 oz.*
Yeah, it’s still going to be 4lbs+ when loaded. Heavy pistol
sweet 50 cal pie
Sweet indeed my friend.......Thanks!!!
pretty scary playing with that desert eagle in the dark I certainly wouldnt hang out that party
But it lights up the whole place for you at least 7 times! 😉
What kind of insect are those making all that sound?
Dude, clean and lube that thing before it blows from the breach not being shut and going off
Well Done, Big Daddy!
Are those highlander swords? Nice!
Very cool....Is that your private range if so your a lucky guy.
You're lookin healthier everytime I see you......great vid and I think you just got magnum research a sale. OooRahh!!!!
lmao@"someone of your advanced age", he's a real jerk for that lololol
Just bought one just like the video today !! Excited to shoot it
I noticed most if the shots it wasn't going back into battery. Was this because it's new or do you think it's an L6 issue. I'm asking because I haven't decided on one or the other.
