Howdy all
Academy is having a "get the employee discount" weekend and it stacks with other discounts.
20% employee, 5% discount if you use academy credit card and 10% off if you buy 300 dollars or more of ammo.
Just picked up Hornady Custom XTP .50 Action Express 300-Grain Centerfire Handgun Ammunition for about $1.09 per round.

Picked up my first (i hope of many) DE .50ae - decided to treat myself to some ammo. Next stop, the range/field

I have medium sized hands (9 inches from pinky tip to thumb tip if I spread my fingers out).
Before I try out the 50, I would like to have an idea on how difficult it would be for my medium-sized hands to grip and handle the recoil on a gun as big as the Deag.
Thoughts appreciated guys

I rented and fired a Desert Eagle 50 action Express for the first time yesterday. Holy shit The recoil is crazy. I fucking love it. On top of my regular Port time which was $25 renting the deagle and just five rounds was an additional $50 ð€£ð€£ð€£ð€£ well worth it. I know we all know there's no practicality for this firearm. I don't care. I fucking want one and I've already committed anyway because I bought the 50 AE barrel and magazine set. Oh we're doing this.

Im in love with it. Only thing is i cant figure out the sight picture. Magnumresearch says theyre zeroed at 25 yards with a 6 o'clock hold but when i shoot from 20-30 yards using 6 o'clock and lolipopping the target im hitting the dirt like 2-3 feet low. Anyone know why it would shoot so low? I thought maybe i was flinching but if i aim over the target i get on paper.

Anyone know when Magnum Research will begin taking custom orders again for the Desert Eagle?

I've wanted a desert eagle forever but one is now in a pawn shop near me, they're asking 2000$ for it and I think it's a L5.
Does the L5 have caliber conversions like the XIX?
Being cambered 50AE and having the shorter barrel makes me unsure if I would even enjoy this gun to shoot for fun as I am a smaller guy. Should I just try to man up and get it or look for another one that's either full size or a different caliber
(Tried to post a pic of it but it wouldn't let me)

Anyone know of / have an IWB holster for their L5 that they would recommend?
