Great craftsmanship, accurate, looks amazing. Balance is even, blowback feature is fun. Easy loading, extra mags make the fun well enjoyed before needing to change the CO2.
Pros
its all good, bottom and top rails mount accessories with ease, rifled barrel.
Cons
Nothing comes to mind.
This replica is the real deal. Fun to shoot and a great addition to my collection of CO2 and Air pistols
Pros
Looks, feel, operation just like the real gun
Cons
Sorry, none that I can think of
this gun was surprising out of the box! was ready to fire and was fairly accurate.... i added a red dot scope to the top rail and have been plinking around the back yard with amazing speed and accuracy!
This is one of the most fun guns i have ever owned! the blow back feature is AWSOME! has feel of an actual 9MM handgun minus the sound of course... but safe enough to use in town!
Pros
blowback works
Accurate
low noise(compared to Berreta's 9MM)
FUN!
Cons
co2 good for only 3-4 8-round cartridges
I've owned this pistol for six years now. Not once in those six years has it jammed on me or been faulty. It's highly accurate and delivers a nice kick with it's blowback action. Very fun to shoot.
Pros
Heavy and realistic
Cons
Consumes a lot of co2 so make sure you buy a lot if you have as much fun with this thing as I do.
When I opened the package, I didnt have my Co2 yet. I was slightly disapointed for the gun having full plastic surface, but the weight and feel of the gun covered that really well.
After I shot the gun for first time, I was suprised positively about the realism this plastic covered "toy" actually had. The blowback was stunning as it let the trigger be very easy and light to pull, which keeps the accuracy perfect! Now on, I literally sleep with this gun. Its just perfect under my pillow, hah.
Pros
Realism, weight, accuracy and trigger's light weight.
Cons
Plastic, pretty high Co2 useage.
Unboxing this pistol was nice, it had a sticker that stated Umarex sighted in which sealed the box. I added the included lower picatinny rail, loaded some CO2 and pellets to let loose and was grinning from ear to ear. Upon inspecting the pistol further I found the fit, feel and finish better than expected from the reviews I've read and videos I've watched. Yes it's mostly plastic but has great balance and weighs heavier than expected, which is a good thing. I'm very happy with the value of this pistol and keep in mind of what it is, a CO2 air pistol and not a firearm. Dollar for dollar shooting air pistols/rifles is not expensive and if looking for a quality item this pistol makes for a great buy since it's easy to load, accurate, cool as hell to shoot and it's a Desert Eagle in .177
Looks feels and operates great, awesome accuracy, blowback is fun with the added weight and good balance to shooting fun. All of these elements elevate this pistol from the entry level pistols available, but as the saying goes you get what you pay for and in my opinion I feel I got a bargain.
Pros
Blowback action, great velocity and accuracy, awesome detail in design/molding, trigger pull is good, double or single action, ambidextrous safety, hefty weight and balance, easy to load both rotary mags and CO2 carts.
Cons
Dotted sights and extra rotary mags would have been my only upgrade but not major.
They say it's not the outer package that matters, but the contents inside that matters. It's the case with this, the box it comes will not win u over, but the airgun definitely will. It's plastic body is....well plasticky but the weight makes up if u don't like plastic. It's heavy, solid and fits great in my hand. The blow back is awesome, and the pop it makes when u fire is almost as firing a real firearm. It scared my dog and he didn't come out from under the bed for a whole night. My girlfriend's face when she fired it was priceless. Lol! It's def a mans thing. I love desert eagles and this comes close if u can't own the real thing. The power of the gun puts holes the doors in my house whenever I miss the target. (not because of the guns accuracy) Its very accurate and powerful. I love it, def worth the money.
Pros
I love the blowback and the power...425 fps....perfect....oh and the sound it makes when it fires.
Cons
What don't I like? Well just that it's plastic and some parts on the gun aren't functional, which u don't need anyway, but would add to the realism if you are into that. That's it...
the desert eagle is well made and feels very real
Fun pellet gun that is accurate from across an average sized suburban yard. Should have been made more like the Airsoft stainless model mixed with the workings of a real Desert Eagle, like a clip style slide in CO2 an mag, or something. Overall Good pellet gun cause it works and is accurate but is not realistic enough for me.
Pros
1. Accurate.
2. Fun.
3. Heavy.
4. Trigger Not Bad.
5. Single & Double Action.
6. Nice Sights In Day Light.
7. Has Style.
Cons
1. Blows through CO2 quickly.
2. Safety lever needs to be broken in first then works easier. If not will brake easily.
3. Made of plastic.
4. Expensive.
5. Slide release feels flimsy.
6. Should come with more 8 round mags.
7. Don't like having to use tool to remove CO2. "Surprised I have not lost the tool yet!!"
8. Just don't feel realistic enough for me.

Scott from USAHI i just wanna know do you get a magazine clip with it?
asked SteveYou only get the one magazine with the gun, no extras.
Scott from USAHow long does co-2 last, once activated and not being fired?
asked bobOn a hot day you can get 30 good shots but on a cold day 25 to 30. The bore is rifled and the range is about 15 yards. I have owned 3 of these guns and I can say with complete confidence that this is the worst piece of crap that you could buy!!! The first Desert Eagle blow-back pistol that arrived broke in about three days. The cheap plastic blow-back slide cracked and shot off the back of the gun when I fired it and it hit me in the face. So the dealer where I purchased it from, sent me a replacement and thank God this one was made better because this one lasted for 5 days before the slide cracked and broke. Luckily, I was not hit in the face. When I told the dealer what happened, he was very upset and apologized. I also called Umarex and complained and told them that two of their Desert Eagle's had failed on me and all they could say was "we are very sorry for the inconvenience please send the faulty Desert Eagle to Umarex so that we may fix or replace it." I thought that maybe "3 times a charm," so I had the dealer send me another brand new Desert Eagle. This one will be my third gun in less than a month, heck less than half a month. When the replacement arrived I barely shot it. I was so afraid that it might break so I babied it and only went through one Co2 cartridge a day. After 6 or 7 days, the blow-back slide cracked and I had had enough and got the dealer to give me a full refund. He gave me his word that he would tell any one who was about to buy a Umarex Desert Eagle that they were the cheapest piece of crap pellet guns he has ever had in his store. All I can tell you is that when that first gun arrived from UPS, I was so happy and I really liked the gun and had a lot of fun shooting it. Once that slide broke there was no more fun to be had. PS I am not the only one that this has happened to, there have been many others who have purchased the Umarex Desert Eagle Blow-back pellet gun and had the slide on their gun crack and break.
CandyMan CandyMan CandyManI need a pellet magazine for a desert eagle pistol. Where could I get one?
asked Jose R. FumeroTRY www.bb-guns.org THEY HAVE LOTS OF MAGS.

Steve from USAWhat is the approximate lifespan of a co2 cylinder with this gun? What is the effective range of this gun? Does it have a rifled bore? I am a rookie trying to get the best bang for my buck.
