Looks and feel
This deagle looks the part. Well at least from far away. Upon close inspection you'll find that it is 99% plastic (save some screws) on the outside. The barrel of the gun also protrudes about a centimeter and this is orange plastic. This is a good thing, on KWCs GBB Desert Eagle's the whole front of the gun was painted. The Desert Eagle also has fully licensed trademarks, "DESERT EAGLE -.44 MAGNUM PISTOL. ISRAEL MILITARY INDUSTRIES" it says on the left slide. "MAGNUM RESEARCH INC. MINNEAPOLIS MINN" it says on the right. Unfortunately it also has "spring operated Softair gun..." and several warning labels stamped into the gun, much like the Daisy Airstrike. There are also no IMI logos on it. The whole gun is made of typical UHC plastics, fairly durable but shiny. There is a visible seam line running through the whole gun, the gun is obviously made in "halves"; these halves are then screwed together. There is no take down feature.
The gun weighs just a touch under a pound, "15,34" ounces according to the box. However the gun feels very solid. Holding the gun lets off a very badass vibe.
The ejection port is closed off, however, if you took apart the gun you could probably saw off the extra plastic and transform it to an open port easily.
With the magazine in the gun is slightly back heavy, although this is typical of many springers.
Performance and other fiddly things.
Ahh, this is where this 15$ pistol shines. The hop up is nonadjustable and set for .12 although .2 work fairly well in it as well. Shooting parallel to the ground, .12 bbs travel about 50 feet straight with a max range of around 80 feet- this is extremely nice considering the slide pull is exactly one and a quarter inches! A 6-inch grouping was obtained from about 40 feet with .12s and virtually no wind.
The sights are non-adjustable but are very easy to use. The 'real' safety is molded plastic and non-functioning. The 'safety' instead is what would normally be the slide release. The hammer however is not molded and pulls back and releases when you press the trigger- cool!
The magazine is full-size unlike the HFC Deagles and contains a weight in it. You can hear the weigh rattle around if you shake it. It holds full 25 rounds! In my opinion this is the best desert eagle springer under thirty dollars. It looks and feels nice and performs well. It is definitely a field gun, not a showpiece.
