I know it already says that the .50 is a 357, but also another way of finding out is that .50s fire 7 rounds where as in the film Bullet tooth tony fires 8 in every mag.
- The .357 holds a 9-shot mag. Also, he fires 10 shots in the scene where he's in the hallway shooting at Boris, which means 9 + 1 in the chamber. Only way they could have accomplished that is with the .357 model. -MT2008
- BTW, I'm full of crap...since I made that original post, I counted again, and he only fires 8 shots. It's probably the .44 Magnum model that he uses. I find it interesting that he fires the gun empty (on camera) without the slide locking back...I'm guessing that the movie's armorer must have deliberately modified the followers on the magazine so that it wouldn't push up the slide release when empty. -MT2008 16:54, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
- The odd part is that when looked at closely, it really does say Desert Eagle .50 on the side of it. -Excalibur
- That just means that the armorer/gunsmith stamped it onto the slide. The stamp they used is not the factory stamp; on a .50 AE Desert Eagle Mark XIX, it says ".50 AE" only on the left side of the gun (we see it on the right in the movie), and it's much tinier than that. -MT2008 23:48, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
