Just go with a 1911 and don't give it a second thought.
I've never understood the allure of the Desert Eagle. They look fantastic on the silver screen and on TV, but it has never been a gun I would want to go out of my way to own.
If you want one of the finest handguns ever designed, with a proven military service record; go for a 1911 in .45acp
I think you should go with the gold plated Desert Eagle.
But no really if you have the budget for a DE you should spend it on a GOOD 1911. IT will be worth more in the future and shoot better . Just do you home work on 1911 before you just buy to buy.
Really anyone that has been around for anytime kinda chuckles at the big DE,

If you want a big heavy hunk of metal that is fairly impractical, but will get everyone else to look at you; buy the Desert Eagle.
50 rds - 45 ACP (Speer HP) = $34.95 ($0.70 per rd)
20 rds - 44 MAG (Speer HP) = $27.95 ($1.40 per rd)
I know what I would do.
