A Desert Eagle Mark VII is the personal sidearm of Marcus (Michael Halsey). It's the only gun not taken by Moon guards, possibly because of Marcus's status in syndicate, or because his nonsense phrase about eggs and bacon that he says to the guard is a special password to save own gun, while in the prison.
