I’m thinking about putting one on mine. Will they hold up?  What kind of mounts are you guys using? Any photos would be nice too. Thanks

Who makes that holster?

They sell a pic rail mount for it, which I use to attach directly to the rail on the barrel.

I had previously tried a Bushnell TRS-25. It didn’t make it through two magazines on the .357 before the rear lens cracked. It may have failed on the first shot and I just didn’t notice.

It was an older one and only had a 1-year warranty. I think Bushnell has since gone to a lifetime warranty. This one now lives on a .22 rifle and does fine.

The lesson is to get something with a good warranty before you try it on your DE.

Then there’s always the “Go big or go home” answer.

I've got around 800 rounds on the holosun 507c on mine with no issue. Theoretically, it should hold up much better on a desert eagle than it will on a traditional slide-mounted setup. The barrel of the desert eagle doesn't move, unlike the slide of a typical firearm. In normal use, it experiences the forces of suddenly being jerked one direction when the slide starts traveling rearward, then possibly an abrupt stop when the slide runs out of travel, then the force of the slide going back forward, and then another sudden stop when the slide is all the way forward. On a desert eagle, it just sits on the barrel and doesn't move.

I put an Aimpoint 1000 on mine back in 1987.

So it’s been an option for a while

Yes.  When I bought it in 1987.



I was also playing with lasers and WMLs starting in the early 90s.
