  • How to Shoot the Desert Eagle a Photographic Guide
    How To Shoot The Desert Eagle A Photographic Guide All Desert Eagle pistols are gas-operated, semi-automatic pistols shooting standard .357 Magnum, .41 Magnum, .44 Magnum and .50AE ammunition. The gas operation does significantly reduce felt recoil, but proper shooting technique is recommended for maximum shooting performance with the DEP. Proper technique is especially important when you’re shooting the .50AE, which puts out more than 60% more energy than the .44 magnum. GRIP & STANCE: Use a modified Weaver stance with your left foot forward for stability (see photo on left). The grips is two-handed, with the trigger hand “pushing” and the off hand “pulling” to create a stable platform. Maintain your push-pull grip throughout the firing sequence, absorbing recoil in your shoulders, NOT your wrists. See photo on right for the way your grip and stance SHOULD look at the end of the firing sequence.) Attention, big-bore CORRECT GRIP TECHNIQUE: revolver shooters: Don’t limp-wrist!

    DerSpiegel20140827 Factory and Lab: Israel's War Business By Markus Becker Tel Aviv, Israel Casual attitudes towards weapons: An Israeli soldier kisses his Merkava tank along the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip. AFP Casual attitudes towards weapons: An Israeli soldier kisses his Merkava tank along the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip. Israel invests more money in research than most other countries -- and in no other place are research institutes, the defense industry, the army and politics as interwoven. The result is a high-tech weapons factory that successfully exports its goods globally. There's not much left of the high-tech car. In a warehouse about the size of an aircraft hangar, its remains look tiny. There are no wheels, no chassis, just the angular body of the car. And it's not in good shape at all. There's a gaping hole in its side with edges of lacerated metal. "Rocket-propelled grenade," says Yoav Hirsh, smiling. Had a person been inside, he or she would likely not have survived the blast. But there was no one behind the wheel: The Guardium is a fully automated vehicle. Pride radiates from Hirsh -- who has a mix of gray and white hair, an athletic frame and a determined look on his face -- when he talks about his cars. He's the CEO of G-Nius, one of first companies in the world able to produce an army of robot fighters. The Guardium has been used since 2007 in patrols along the border of the Gaza Strip. It can be guided by remote control or can steer itself through a pre-selected route as its cameras and sensors capture data about the surroundings.
