Desert Eagle: I Hate This Gun

About this video

Colion shares his experience shooting the Desert Eagle .50 AE for the first time, describing his intense dislike for actually firing the gun despite his long-standing fascination with it. He breaks down what he views as the gun’s painful recoil, poor ergonomics, and impractical design, while paradoxically arguing that these flaws make it an iconic must-have for gun collectors. Colion concludes that the Desert Eagle is objectively awful to shoot but culturally significant enough that he’s keeping it in his collection.

Key takeaways
