The Desert Eagle .50AE is the first blowback gas pistol from Japanese manufacturer Tokyo Marui, now available in an updated Hardkick version. This impressive replica is modeled after the famous real steel firearm weighing around two kilograms. Marui’s airsoft version of this iconic model is made from high-quality polymer, making it slightly lighter than the original IMI firearm released in 1984. However, once you hold this replica, that difference is quickly forgotten—the over 1 kg weight combined with a sharp recoil will put a smile on your face the moment you pull the trigger. Note! This model kicks quite hard as the name suggests, and its physical dimensions are quite large. For this reason, the DE may not be the best choice for smaller hands.
The improved Hardkick version from Marui features a 27-round magazine. This model includes a more powerful blowback system than the original, utilizing stiffer recoil springs and an updated internal mechanism. The heavy slide and redesigned system deliver a crisp kick and recoil comparable to CO2-powered GBB pistols. The pistol is equipped with an adjustable hop-up, which is extremely easy to adjust compared to most other gas pistols, without removing the slide.
The Desert Eagle has appeared in numerous movies such as The Matrix, Commando, and Resident Evil. This iconic firearm has also been featured in games like Counter Strike, Resident Evil, and the classic Tomb Raider.
Note! Gas-powered guns perform poorly in cold weather.
Note! This pistol is designed for Marui HFC 134a gas, which is less powerful than standard Green Gas.
