{{PAGENAME}} is an [[Agility]]-based Tier 3 [[Ammo/Weapons|Handgun]] succeeding the [[.44 Magnum]] in ''[[7 Days to Die]]''.

==In-Game Description==
This heavy pistol uses [[.44 Magnum Bullet|.44 Magnum ammo]].

Repair with a [[Repair Kit]].<br/>Scrap to [[Handgun Parts]].

==Overview==
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a short to medium range semi-automatic handgun, which can be crafted or found throughout the world in containers, such as [[Weapons Bag|weapon bags]], [[Gun Safe|gun safes]], [[Toilet|toilets]], and loot bags. It is the single shot, high damage alternative to the [[SMG-5]].

The {{PAGENAME}} requires .44 Magnum bullets and will hold 8 bullets. It reloads automatically, provided the correct [[Ammunition]] is available. It can also be reloaded manually at any time using the reload key (defaults to R) provided the magazine is not full.

==Combat==
The {{PAGENAME}} is step up from the .44 Magnum and is capable of dispatching some [[Feral]]s with a single shot. It carries many of the same traits as its predecessor and, as such, players focused on a stealth build ([[Hidden Strike]] and [[From The Shadows]]) can still use the [[Silencer Mod]] to quietly clear out a [[Point of Interest]] (POI) without being overwhelmed, even high tier POIs on high difficulty settings. The added bonus of being able to equip a [[Magazine Extender Mod]] allows the player to deal with larger groups compared to the .44 Magnum. However, due to its relatively low magazine capacity even with the mod, {{PAGENAME}} is still unsuitable for crowd control, especially during [[Blood Moon Horde]]s.

===Repair===
The condition of a {{PAGENAME}} deteriorates with each use until eventually it will stop working and will need to be repaired. This can be done using a [[Repair Kit]].

==Notes==
* The game code rounds down for integer values (after calculations) and therefore sets the magazine size to 8
** Due to the fact the in-game code sets the magazine size to 8.8, the Magazine Extender Mod will increase the magazine size to 13 rather than 12 (8.8 x 1.5 = 13.2 => 13)

* The in-game model resembles the [[wikipedia:Desert_Eagle|Desert Eagle]] but the in-game name does not directly use the actual name unlike the [[AK-47 Machine Gun]] or [[M60 Machine Gun]]
