video - high speed Desert Eagle

[Bopper]

Very cool. Desert Eagles are just plain fun to shoot. Thanks for posting and good luck with the sale.

It's a total collector's piece. Serves no function, but everyone should have one in their stable...

Very Nice. I think something around 5k fps would be the money shot, as far as the gun mechanics are concerned. Things happened a bit too slow at 10kfps, though on 50 just watching the hammer fall was crazy enough. And the bullet was very cool to watch.

Good stuff.

Fantastic videos! And forget the Deagle -- tell us what rig you used to shoot this!

Love the melon vids -- my brother-in-law is a melon farmer...he will love it...

ETA - I especially love how, in the melon video, the muzzle blast "peels back" the melon as it starts to explode towards the shooter...reminds me of some of the CGI in the second two Matrix films...

this is awesome, post more slowmotion vids! what camera are you using, and how much did it cost?

[Guns R Tools]

I would never own a Deagle, good job in getting rid of it.

Ah. gamer I see.
When polymer pistols came into scene, many hated it but now they are loved by many.
Never say never.

Great vids. You gotta love exploding watermelons

Thank you very much for taking the time to make those, upload them to youtube, and then post them here. Very cool and thoughtful.

I enjoyed them all. It is really interesting to see the bullet long gone before the slide even begins to reciprocate.

People that dont like them just cant afford them hahaha

Your comment might actually be dumber than the post your statement is directed towards.

Cool videos. Thank You!

Great camera work. I have always wanted a DE but never got around to getting one. But i will.

[JTROKS]

That was awesome! How about doing one on a hard kicking revolver like a 454 Casull or a 460 S&W? You know there are a few folks that say the Desert Eagle has no purpose, but to me my 44 mag DEagle is just too much fun to shoot. With my revolvers I will shoot 12 to 24 rounds of warm loads then quit due to pain starting to sink in. With the DEagle it just soaks up all that bone jarring recoil and you end up shooting all your ammo.

Cool vids! Slow motion at its finest!

That is some amazing video. What I want to know is, how'd you get access to high speed cameras??
