Anyone here into firearms?

Nothing says "Look at me!" more than a .50AE Desert Eagle in a small indoor range.

First time I took my DE to a public and indoor range.

A lady in the next lane exclaimed "What was that!" after the first round.

Also an older gentleman come over to my lane to see what I was shooting, I handed him a .50AE round and he said "Holy ****!".

That's the response when you fire off a S&W 460. Still to date the most powerful handgun I've ever shot.

The 460 is definitely an attention getter as is it's brother the S&W 500. Both The 460 and 500 are crazy rounds but they are not fun to shoot. Did get to shoot a S&W 500 once, it was really cool but never again.

The Desert Eagle is a lot of fun. I could shoot it all day but my bank account couldn't. The second round I ever shot out of my DE was in to a water melon at about 15ft. The watermelon was there one moment and gone the next.

I agree. My old neighbor had a 460 I fired five rnds and that was all I needed. Not fun.

Friend had a Thomson Contender with a couple of rifle chambered barrels. I shot one round of 444 Marlin, and one round of 45/70 Gov't. and called it quiets!

My wrist was hurtin'!

One round of S&W 500 was enough for me.
