  • 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!
