The one weakness of a DE is the black stock finish. It's the only gun I have owned which started to rust. I stripped the finish to bare metal, oil coated it, and mailed it off to Fords refinishing. They hard chromed it in two weeks and sent it back. I do think the gold finish (actually a titanium derivative - titanium nitride) is a better choice as it's way tougher than chrome and won't flake off should you use a very heavy solvent on the gun. TiN is used to coat cutting bits, and after machining three lowers with one bit, and not seeing any degradation to the TiN finish, I was a believer in the hardness of the material.

Gold looks a bit ostentatious but it's more of a maintainance decision. I hate cleaning guns.

People don't realize that there is a big hunting culture that uses handguns, and that the DE is one of the premier hunting pistols

Throws brass that you should pick up as in leave no trace.

I didn't realize hunting with a Deagle was a thing.

I just bought the 44 a month ago. I have not shot it yet and I may not before it gets sent off for the polished chrome finish. I don't know why but I have just wanted one for some time now. I found mine in a LGS in a barely used condition so it made it worth while to buy since I really wanted the polished chrome.
What the heck. You only live once.

It is highly sensitive to ammo selection, but it's great fun.

just set aside another few hundred for a reloading setup...

To the OP, if you get a DE and want to swap out barrels, make sure you get the Mk XIX. I have a MkVII, which does NOT allow for an upgrade to .50. Not a big worry for me as I like in .44 and didn't want yet another calibre to support, but just keep that in mind if it matters to you.

Its another high-caliber pistol.

Can you recommend one? I'm trying to make a smart decision on something as range cool as a Deagle...

Rossi Ranch Hand in 44mag?

Rossi Ranch Hand in 44mag?

44 Mag<50 AE

Plus the ranch hand doesn't feel as good in the hand as a standard pistol grip, and does not come in semiautomatic mode
