The manufacturing ingenuity behind USA based, Magnum Research, Inc. (MRI) has been turning heads for decades. The iconic Desert Eagle has been featured on the Silver Screen, TV and video games, but now, MRI has made it even sexier. Introducing the Mark XIX Desert Eagle .50AE and .44 Magnum in a new high temperature ceramic Cerakote™ coating called Burnt Bronze. These two models are being offered exclusively to dealers through one of the industry’s leading firearms distributors, Bill Hicks & Co., Ltd.
“We took our most popular and iconic handgun, the Desert Eagle, and gave it a commanding new look” says Frank Harris, VP of Sales and Marketing. “The Desert Eagle has always been considered a bit of a muscle gun, but now, with the Burnt Bronze Cerakote coating, it brings intimidating to an entirely new level.”
The Cerakote coating is a multi-step process which results in a high temperature ceramic coating that holds up well under normal use. The Burnt Bronze model has attractive black appointments which gives the pistol even more appeal.
The Mark XIX Desert Eagle .50 AE is a gas-operated, semi-automatic pistol with a 7 round capacity in .50AE and 8 round capacity in .44 Magnum. The gun measures 10.75″ in length with a 6″ barrel, or 14.75″ in a 10″ barrel available in black as an aftermarket item. Width is 1.25″, height 6.25″ and the weight with an empty magazine is approximately 72 ounces. It has a trigger reach of 2.75″ and a sight radius of 8.5″ with the 6″ barrel. The construction of the Mark XIX Desert Eagle utilizes the latest CNC machine technology providing exacting specifications with tight tolerances creating a work of art in a precision firearm. The grip is anatomically formed and provides an ideal hand seating angle for two-handed shooting allowing for comfortable, rapid and accurate firing. The Weaver style accessory rail easily allows for aftermarket optics and scope rings.
