As I mentioned in "show us your 1911s" I just picked this up for a good price. Friend's family back home is going through a ruff patch and he was selling off guns. I picked this Magnum Research Desert Eagle 45 1911 for $550 with less than 200 rounds fired through it in mint condition. I know little about this brand and the name seems to cause alot of confusion. I didn't know there was a 1911 45 Desert Eagle myself. Anyone have any information pertaining to this gun cause I'd love to hear it. Anyone ever shot one? -Shane
