The Baby Desert Eagle II Compact is an IWI-manufactured, steel-frame Jericho-pattern pistol imported and marked by Israel Weapon Industries. The slide runs inside the frame rails, contributing to the design’s distinct handling characteristics. Import markings read "MAGNUM RESEARCH INC. MPLS MN USA, MADE IN ISRAEL."
Chambered in .40 S&W, this compact variant uses a 3.93 inch barrel and a 12+1 capacity. It ships with two 12-round steel magazines with polymer followers. The left-side magazine release supports conventional reloads.
The pistol operates in DA/SA and uses a frame-mounted ambidextrous manual safety with a red fire indicator. This configuration allows cocked-and-locked carry. A spur hammer provides clear status and positive thumb purchase.
Sights are a fixed 3-dot system with a front post and a drift-adjustable square-notch rear featuring two white dots. The frame has no accessory rail.
Ergonomics include two-piece textured polymer grip panels with IWI logo medallions. The steel frame and internal slide rails reflect the robust Jericho lineage in a compact size for carry and range use.
