The finish is black polymer for the frame, and Black Oxide or Northern Lights Cerakote for the slide.
The Magnum Story
Magnum Research was founded in 1979, focused on bringing the world’s finest hunting handguns to market, beginning with the famous Desert Eagle pistol. The Desert Eagle was the first commercially successful autoloader chambered in a magnum cartridge, and the only one to remain in continuous production. Offered in .44 Magnum, .357 Magnum, .50 AE, and .429 DE, the Desert Eagle is a cultural icon appearing in countless movies, television shows, and video games. Magnum Research followed it with the Biggest Finest Revolver (BFR), giving hunters a super accurate, reliable handgun, in a vast number of calibers. Other popular Magnum Research products include the Baby Eagle, and MR1911 pistols; and the SwitchBolt, and Mountain Eagle rifles. In 2010, Magnum Research was purchased by Kahr Firearms Group, becoming the third brand in the family, alongside Kahr and Auto-Ordnance. Kahr Firearms Group has a dedicated team of professionals making the best firearms available to the American Shooter!
