The Desert Eagle is fed with a detachable magazine. Magazine capacity is nine rounds in .357 Magnum, eight rounds in .44 Magnum, and seven rounds in .50 Action Express.

Some pistols from Magnum Research are marked Desert Eagle Pistol. Despite these names being used in the American market, the short recoil Jericho 941 is not related to the gas-operated IMI Desert Eagle other than its manufacture by IMI and being affiliated with MRI, and bears only a slight cosmetic resemblance to the larger pistol.
