I own many of both models from all the Soviet sister states and also Chinese made models. Two of the holes in my collection have been actual Soviet models of the Tokerev and Makarov. I collect Tokerevs and Makarovs and AK’s. Those you that read this site realize I am into Soviet weapons. I try to feature a gun from my collection every week or so on this website from my collection. A comfortable and precise fire is secured by the use of a reverse gas withdrawal to slow down the slide (patented). Its frame is made of a high strength aluminum alloy, the barrel and slide of steel. The pistol does not require any safety lever due do the DAO system. It features what Magnum Research call “gas assisted blowback” The pistol has a dynamic breech, DAO trigger mechanism, and fixed sight. This Micro Eagle is an interesting pistol that does differentiate itself from other. This is a great pistol to throw into a pocket and head out somewhere without having to put on the concealed holster. I actually thought this pistol would hurt my hand when I shot it, because of the size, but it was OK. 25 Beretta Bobcat but packs a bigger punch with the. You can see all the previous gun of the week posts here. Which immediately makes this gun collectable. Magnum Research brought out this gun a year ago for $575 and I guess it did not sell well, because it is no longer listed on their website. My 17 year old son thought I would like it (and he was correct) had his mother go to the gun store and buy it, so they could give it to me as a gift (That’s before the recent supreme court ruling, btw).

Of course, I had heard of it’s big brother, the Dessert Eagle, but not this smaller version. I had never even heard of this gun, until I got it as a Father’s Day gift on last Sunday. Every week I try to feature a gun from my gun collection.
