True. My wife got me a Desert Eagle in .50AE for my 50th Birthday. First shot placement is critical since there’s no double tapping this gun! It’s a pretty impractical firearm for daily carry but I hunt in grizzly territory.

The .44 Magnum isn’t much better. Very impressive at the range, but I don’t consider it a combat handgun. You can fire it one-handed but if your wrist gets tired and you let it flip, it’ll jam.
