Traded his Desert Eagle 45 for it. I don't know, I'm sure it's a fine weapon, but it surely seemed to me to resemble a very well made pellet pistol. He said he bought it for SD. Is that really viable? The cartridges appeared to be super sonic, at least. Sure hope I'm not in his line of fire when the SHTF. That little projectile looked like it could go through several walls without checking up. Seemed like a glorified target pistol to me. I will say he has good taste in his toys, though.

He said it handled really well.

The Ft. Hood shooter last November reportedly used one to kill 13 and wound another 30+. He also carried a .357 which he may or may not have fired. Of course shooting at unarmed victims is quite different than self defense.

I shot one when they first came out several years ago. It was just ok to me. Not really my thing.

I didn't know Desert Eagle made a .45. Maybe a .44?
