Built by Israel Military Industries for Magnum Research, this Mk VII variant offers the hallmark Desert Eagle operating system: a gas-operated action with a rotating multi-lug bolt. Chambered in .44 Rem Magnum, it uses 8-round steel magazines and runs a single-action system tailored by the factory with an adjustable trigger.
The 6-inch steel barrel uses polygonal rifling, and the slide carries rear diagonal cocking serrations for confident manipulation. A slide-mounted manual safety and open iron sights—ramped, pinned front blade and a square-notch rear—provide straightforward controls and sight alignment.
Its two-tone presentation sets it apart, with a dark slide and barrel over a matte silver/gray frame. The installed wraparound black rubber finger-groove grip offers a secure, hand-filling hold that complements the pistol’s substantial build and .44 Magnum chambering.
The barrel top includes a 3/8-inch dovetail, and the pistol bears clear factory markings: "DESERT EAGLE – MK VII .44 MAGNUM PISTOL ISRAEL MILITARY INDUSTRIES, MAGNUM RESEARCH INC. MINNEAPOLIS MINN. MADE IN ISRAEL." This package also includes three correct .44 Magnum magazines, one marked "2-86 44," and the original IMI/Magnum Research factory cardboard box.
