The DESERT EAGLE PISTOL by I.M.I. is a semiautomatic magazine-fed, double-action pistol. The
safety of the DESERT EAGLE PISTOL locks the firing
pin, decock the hammer and also disconnects the
trigger from the mechanism.
In addition to the high accuracy of the polygonal
rifled barrels and low recoil, the DESERT EAGLE
PISTOL offers the convenience of firing standard
9mm Parabellum (9 x 19), .40 S&W and .45 ACP
in pistols with these caliber designations.
The anatomically formed grip dimensions permit
rapid, accurate, instinctive shooting. The combat
style trigger guard is designed for two-handed
shooting.
SLIDE-MOUNTED SAFETY
An easily operated slide-mounted thumb safety
and deep-groove serrated slide grip are designed
for positive operation.
FRAME-MOUNTED SAFETY
The models FS and F employ a frame-mounted
safety. This safety disconnects the trigger bar
from the sear while in the safe position. There
is a firing pin block.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES
RETRACTION MOVEMENT
Prior to firing the pistol, the barrel is locked in
position by three lugs engaged in three slots in the
slide assembly. Upon firing the pistol, propellant
gas pressure pushes the slide rearward. During this
movement, both barrel and slide recoil together a
short distance, then the barrel stops and disengages
from the slide; the slide continues its rearward
travel. When the bullet has left the barrel, the empty
cartridge case is extracted and ejected with the
continuing movement of the slide to the rear. At the
same time, the slide pushes the hammer down into
the cocked position, where it is retained by the sear.
The recoil springs are now compressed.
FORWARD MOVEMENT
When the recoil springs expand, they drive the slide
forward. During this movement the slide strips a
cartride from the magazine and inserts it into the
chamber. The locking lugs on the barrel once again
engage the slots in the slide and lock the cartridge
in the chamber.
CONTINUED FIRING
When the trigger is pulled, the sear releases the
hammer which in turn hits the firing pin thus firing
the chambered cartridge. Firing may be continued
in this manner until the magazine is empty. When
the last cartridge is fired and the empty case is
ejected the slide is retained in its rear position by
the slide catch. The slide is actuated by the
magazine follower. The slide catch will release the
slide when depressed by hand.
SAFETY FEATURES
The safety is located at the back of the slide, just
below the rear sight. Pushing the safety downward
will engage the safety. In this position the sear is
held down by the firing pin safety and the trigger
bar, which is pushed downward and cannot engage
the interrupter thus neutralizing the trigger. The safety
is also a decocking device which pulls the firing pin
inside the firing pin channel before the hammeris
released, preventing any contact between them. Due
to the unique blocking of the firing pin by the safety,
the pistol will not fire when dropped accidentally on
its hammer or muzzle.

SIGHTS AND ZEROING
Standard DESERT EAGLE PISTOL sights consist of
a front and rear sight. Both are combat style,
and are designed to ensure rapid and accuarate
aiming. The square notch on the rear sight is
3mm wide and the front sight blade is 3.3mm
wide. The sight line radius is 150mm.
The single-caliber pistol is supplied with combatstyle front and rear sights.
The DESERT EAGLE PISTOL is factory zeroed at
25 meters. Due to individual eyesight variations,
the actual mean point of impact (M.P.I.) may
vary. Zeroing can be changed on combat style
sights for windage only. To adjust the sights:
1.Use a small hammer and a brass punch to
lightly tap the sight on the side. (Moving the
rear sight to the left will move the point of
impact to the left).
2.Adjustments to the sights in this manner
should only be performed by a competent
gunsmith.

CARE AND CLEANING
GENERAL
Comprehensive knowledge of how to service and
handle the pistol is of great importance. Experience
has shown that most failures which occur while
operating the pistol are due to negligence in maintenance. Special attention must be paid to cleaning,
lubricating and inspecting the pistol; this will determine whether or not the pistol functions properly
when you need it. In order to maintain accuracy, the
barrel must be serviced thoroughly. The slide and
other moving parts of the pistol must be kept clean
and lightly lubricated to ensure proper operation.
Care and cleaning included the magazines, which
must be kept free from rust, grit, etc., in order to
function properly.
CLEANING THE PISTOL
1.Upon receiving the pistol, disassemble and
inspect it (see page 19, Disassembly).
26
25772 - PRINT 11/18/03 8:20 AM Page 27

2.Clean the pistol regularly to ensure it functions
properly when needed.
3.For the initial cleaning, make certain that any
heavy or sticky deposits of protective material
are removed. To do so, use a very light rustpreventative oil to remove the coating.
4.When cleaning the slide, pay particular
attention to the area around the extractor and
firing pin, making certain that all powder
residue is removed (Fig. 29) A small brush,
swabs and solvent should be used to remove
dirt from hard to reach areas. (Fig. 29).
5.To clean the barrel, use the brass wire brush.
Run the brush completely through the chamber
and bore until it protrudes from the other end
of the barrel.
6.Pull the brush in the opposite direction and
remove it from the barrel (Fig. 30). Repeat this
operation several times.
7.Use a patch moistened with powder solvent and
clean the bore (Fig. 31). Repeat this operation
using clean, dry patches.
27
25772 - PRINT 11/18/03 8:20 AM Page 28

8. Oil the chamber, bore and all moving parts of
the pistol with a lightly oiled patch/cloth, then
remove all excess oil with a dry one.
9. While cleaning, inspect all parts for wear and
damage; make sure all surfaces are free from
rust.
10.Assemble the pistol and make sure it functions
properly.
11.Never use abrasive or metallic objects,
synthetic cloth, dry cleaning fliuds,
detergents, acids, lyes, water or steam for
cleaning.

DESERT EAGLE PISTOL
(Frame-mounted safety) MODELS F, FS & FSS
This supplement refers to the following pistols:
F & FS 9mm Para (Luger) - single caliber
F & FS .40 S&W - single caliber
The priciple differences distinguishing the F & FS
from the slide-mounted safety are:
• Frame-mounted safety, left side only
• In “FIRE” position, the safety lever points down
(parallel to the slide - red dot visible)
• In “SAFE” position, the safety lever points up
Hammer cannot be decocked.
• Firing pin remains blocked until trigger is pulled.
• In “SAFE” position, pistol can be cocked only if
hammer is cocked!
Apart from these differences, operation and
maintenance of the two pistol types are identical.
The differences between the pistol parts are listed
on page 32.
ATTENTION
Note that “FIRE” and “SAFE” positions in the F &
FS are not the same as in the slide-mounted safety.
In the F & FS there are no white dots in the
“SAFE” position.
IMPORTANT NOTE
MODELS F, FS & FSS FRAME-MOUNTED SAFETY
The models Fs and F employ a frame-mounted
safety. This safety disconnects the trigger bar from
the sear while in the safe position. There is a firing
pin block.
After firing, the safety may be placed in the safe
position with the hammer cocked or the hammer
must be manually lowered by restraining hammer
with thumb and disengaging sear by pulling
trigger and then moving safety to safe position.
