Shooting the "Baby" Desert Eagle pistol 9mm -Jericho 941-

Shooting my full sized 'all steel' Magnum Research 'baby' Desert Eagle 9mm pistol one handed. This gun is also sometimes called the Jericho 941 or the UZi Eagle it is made in Israel. Currently not being imported and not available new. This is the standard issue model for the Israeli military they call it the "Jericho". Shoots with very little recoil due it's weight, holds 15+1 rounds. Super accurate as I hit a cup at 20 yards 3 out of 4 shots one handed my first time shooting it. The fourth shot I was distracted by yelping onlookers who had taken off their hearing protection without my knowledge. I love this gun, hopefully will add a detailed tabletop review later.

There is a decocker on the left side of the slide, just hard to see due to the iphone video quality and heavy backlighting. I love the decocker much more than a safety!

What's the price on this gun?

[Bracken24601]

@mundor21 They are not available "new" any longer from gun suppliers. I bought mine barely used for $550, which inlcuded 250 rounds of ammo and a holster. I seem the used for sale every so often for the $500 to $600 range. If your searching for them you may have better luck looking for the "jerico 941" which is the same gun but not branded or imported by Magnum Research like mine. Different importer inport the "Jercho 941" with various names in the past... "UZI Eagle" , "Baby Eagle", ect.

its smaller than its big brother but it still has some kick doesn't it

I have a .45acp model. There is no separate de-cocker, it lowers the hammer when you engage the safety. Mine is a Magnum Research model, they stopped importing them a few years back and Charles Daly took over but now they are not imported anymore. Mine uses EAA Witness magazines which feed more reliably than the MR ones and cost less.

No de-cocker?
