The desert eagle, a classic "hand cannon" (used in CSGO and many other games), first made in 1979 was supposed to be used as a gas-powered semi-automatic pistol.
The basic design was patented in 1980, with working prototypes made a year later, it was completed under a contract with the Israel Military Industries.
The earliest variant is the Mark 1 which used the .357 mag, but the design finally was perfected in 1968 which was the first semi-auto handgun that could chamber the .44 mag.
Used in Arnolds Schwarzenegger Comando, but the Mark 1 was mainly used in movies before the 1990s.
Then the mark XIX came out and it was really good, movies used it including the Maxtrix trilogy.
