The Desert Eagle is unmistakable, and the L5 is the version for people who actually want to carry one. Magnum Research builds the L5 with an aluminum frame and a lightened barrel, shaving substantial weight off the standard steel gun while keeping the gas-operated rotating bolt action that lets a semi-automatic pistol handle magnum revolver cartridges at all. This one is chambered in .44 Magnum with a 5-inch barrel in a mil-spec green Cerakote. In .44 Mag it is a legitimate handgun hunting and woods-carry option, and the gas system takes a surprising amount of edge off the recoil.
