The Magnum Research Incorporated Desert Eagle, known as the DEagle 50 in-game (and previously known as the Desert Eagle), is a semi-automatic pistol that was added in the "Downwards is the only way forwards" (April 26th, 2018) update.

Info
The Desert Eagle is currently the most powerful pistol available. This weapon uses .50 AE or Action Express (Black Ammo) and is also currently the only gun that uses .50 AE ammo. The DEagle can also be dual wielded as it's a pistol, but is rare to find two in one game. It has its highest drop rate in a secret room in the Mansion, at about a 50% chance of spawning and a miniscule chance of spawning two DEagles. However, it can also very rarely spawn in other places as normal loot or on the ground. It is the only weapon in the game that is first shot accurate.

The upsides for using it in certain situations consist of it dealing a considerably high damage compared to other pistols and other weapons in the game, it has good range and can be dual wielded. The cons are that it is a rare weapon and has a small clip size, and it's hard to find ammo for it. It should be used in medium to long range due to its accuracy. Do not overestimate it in close range, as you will be vulnerable to shotgun assaults.

With this weapon

 * The DEagle is best used as a precision weapon when wielding one DEagle, as it deals high damage and has extreme accuracy.
 * Trying to conserve the DEagle's ammo supply will greatly reduce its effectiveness. Instead, the player should try to use the DEagle 50 to kill enemies as quickly as possible. This will lead to a higher-kill game, and by the time the DEagle is out of ammo the player should be able to find a suitable replacement gun.
 * You only have 7 shots with this weapon; reload it obsessively whenever given the chance to.
 * Dual Deagles should be considered an entirely new weapon on its own; as it sports a much higher firerate and DPS than single DEagle, and also loses the extreme accuracy and makes reloading notably difficult by comparison. Use Dual DEagle at mid-range to shut down enemies pressing with assault rifles.
 * However, the Duel Deagles can be used as a close-range weapon. If a player is sitting on you, spam for massive damage.
 * Be wary that Dual DEagles cannot be used as a Sniper, and can only reasonably used as a spam-click weapon, and will burn through ammo much faster than a single Deagle. However, if you found a Dual DEagle box, you get two Deagle drops both with ammo for 98 instead of 56 total ammo dropped. (You'll need a pack to carry it all).
 * If you come across a DEagle without .50 AE ammo, do not take it unless you only have one or no weapons as it will be very unlikely that you will come across more ammo.
 * Experienced players using a 'sniper' loadout can combine it with the AWM-S, Mosin Nagant, or SV-98 to create a very powerful, albeit rare, combination capable of very large damage and very quick kills. In the right hands, it is deadly.
 * This could also work with a DMR such as the M39, Mk 12, or M1 Garand

Against

 * When fighting anyone with only one DEagle, try to get close to them and finish them off with a shotgun.
 * On the other hand if an opponent wields dual DEagles, keep as much distance from them as possible, as the accuracy will impend on his ability to aim.
 * If you are in late-game, try to make the enemy run out of .50 AE ammo as they will likely have a very limited amount.

Trivia

 * It is indicated by the sprite of the gun (as well as the icon on the crates in the mansion) that the DEagle is gold-plated. Gold-plated versions are available for every model of the Desert Eagle.
 * The DEagle 50 was previously named correctly as the "Desert Eagle". This has changed in the Desert rain update, when it was renamed to "DEagle 50". This is most likely due to copyright issues, as "Desert Eagle" is a trademark of Magnum Research Inc.
 * This is the third weapon renamed due to copyright issues.Screen Shot 2018-09-22 at 7.10.51 PM.png
