(This is the 6 Inch Combo package. The 6/10 Inch Package is shown, which includes both 6 and 10 inch barrles.) The Desert Eagle Pistol Mark XIX Component System is based on a single platform that transforms into six different pistols - three Magnum calibers, each with a 6-inch (or 10-inch barrel as well in the 6/10 combo package). Changing calibers is a simple matter of switching barrels and magazines. (Converting to or from .357 Magnum also involves changing the bolt.) The barrel design alone sports several improvements. Each barrel is now made of a single piece of steel instead of three. All six barrels, including the optional 10-inch barrels, have a 7/8" dovetailed design with cross slots to accommodate scope rings; no other scope mounts are required. The .50 A.E.'s 10-inch barrel will fit existing .50's, as well as the new Mark XIX platform. Hogue soft rubber grips are standard equipment on the gun. The pistol's well-known gas operation, polygonal rifling, low recoil, and safety features remain the same, as do the Mark VII adjustable trigger, slide release, and safety levers. This is a way to get all accessories at once. The system consists of an ICC aluminum carrying case with a black ballistic nylon cover.
