Came across an Israel Weapon Industries ad in Guns Magazine, which I subscribe to via Kindle. Nice guns!

@billstclair ever listen to the song Chocta Bingo by Ray Wylie Hubbard? There's a line in it about the Desert Eagle.

@billstclair I think the specific lyric is "...And a Desert Eagle that's one great big ol' pistol
I mean .50 caliber made by badass Hebrews" only thing I know by IMI that is mentioned in a song :)

@Absinthe @billstclair

I've never heard that song, but the Desert Eagle is made by Magnum Research, a distinctly American company.

Now it is, but it was designed by IMI and from '82 to '05 it was made by IMI and from '05-09 was a joint thing between IMI and MR.. And since 2009 it is made by MR. And GD made it between 95-98.
