The Desert Eagle uses a gas-operated mechanism normally found in rifles, as opposed to the short recoil or blow-back designs most commonly seen in semi-automatic pistols. Unlike most pistols, the barrel does not move during firing. The gun is known for its intimidating style and large magnum chamberings. Because of its size, the Desert Eagle is not used in tactical combat. It is too large, has overpowering ammunition and makes an incredibly loud sound, especially indoors.
