44 mag vs 50ae

Whats up guys, i recently go a 44mag, was wondering if its worth buy the 50ae barrel to swap out whenever i feel like it. I got the tungsten variant so its kinda tough to find the barrel to begin, plus looks like itll run me around $600 bucks. Also if anyone has a deagle with non-matching barrel and body finishes please post. May sway my decision to get a different barrel finish if it looks good to me.

Firing pin retention plate falls off

It's happened twice now, while shooting. The firing pin retention plate falls out the bottom of the slide and the firing pin and spring self ejected. I found the firing pin and ordered a new plate and spring. What can I do to prevent this?

Magazine

Where is a good place to get 44mag magazines? And what are some good brands? I’ve had bad experiences with pro mag in the past and those seem to be the most prevalent brand.

Bolt rotation stiffness

I have two Desert Eagles: a .44 Magnum produced by IWI, and a .50AE produced in 2023. After field stripping my .44 to clean it, I noticed how easy it was to manipulate the bolt into rotating. I could depress the bolt with my hand and it would rotate. In contrast, my .50’s bolt is so strong it can only rotate by racking the slide. I’m worried this is sign a spring is worn or broken in my .44. Any ideas?

Question about .50AE ammo

Hello all!

Thinking about picking up my first Desert Eagle and my desire is to own one in .50AE but my question is how readily available is that ammo? I see you can buy it some places online (not many from what I can tell) but I have not ever seen any locally. I understand it is considerably more expensive than .357

For those of you that own or shoot .50AE, where are you purchasing your ammo from?this would be a dream gun purchase of mine so I want to make it work the best I can! Thank you all!

Used DE XIX 50ae “tune up”

So I recently bought an almost 10yo DE with allegedly only 50rds through it. What parts are suggested to swap out ? I saw a tune up kit on Kahrs website for50$. Necessary?
