You have to watch this epic Desert Eagle Fail.

A Strictly Novelty Item. Mad Max Wouldn’t Be Proud

Look, you can never be prepared enough. But if I’m building out my personal armory I would not have a Desert Eagle in the mix unless it was for the novelty of it.

Now that that is out of the way… Never complain about something unless you want to provide a solution. So here’s my Max Mad Thunderdome loadout below. (Great movie)

I’d want a strong revolver (.686 S&W comes to mind), a great semi-auto .308 rifle (HK is my first choice), an MP7, .308 Blaser bolt action with 3-15x scope, and a good 9mm or .45 (Glock or HK).

I’ll take two of each and four thousand rounds of ammo for each weapon. Plus a spare parts kit and cleaning materials (a good bag o rags and WD40 is all you need).

Also need a good three-day pack to haul your weapons, water, and food… more on that later.

That said, ain’t nothing wrong with novelty if that’s what you’re after. But the Desert Eagle is just that, a party favor at best.
