The firearm in the picture looks similar to an AutoMag, definitely not a Desert Eagle, what do you folks think?

I mean, it looks to me like it's a desert eagle (the triangular shaped muzzle & barrel too) but the picture is very grainy so can't tell for sure.

I sure wouldn't want to get hit with one at any range, but especially that close range - vest or no. That had to really hurt. The concussion alone is enough to stop the heart if hit in the right place. WOW

I agree with Bart, looks like a Desert Eagle to me.

That's definitely a Desert Eagle - has the distinctive bulge at the rear of the barrel where the chamber is.
