    Thinking of, over time, working on building up a Desert Eagle handgun into what I'll call the "Patriot Eagle." Wondering if I can purchase the materials, if I'd be able to get a craftsman to create an eagle head with an open mouth, from which the .357, .44 Mag., or .50 A&E would issue. I'd laser etch 2 or 3 feathers down the outside of the barrel, and fabricate some wings to come off the ends of the slide. Finally, maybe have a talon of some sort coming off the back of the grip. Would probably cost an arm and a leg, but any thoughts?

    I have a DE in 50ae. I can't imagine going full on artsy fartsy on it. JMHO. But it would be your gun. I am sure a few would find it cool. 1200-1300 plus dollar gun to start with, just sounds a bit crazy.

    They are a hoot to shoot though.

    Magnum Research does have some cool new designs.
    Apocalyptic is nice.
