In my infantry company, we had a couple of guys who owned and deployed with Eagles. The most popular privately owned pistol in my unit's armory? .44 Magnum ftw
We had to supply our own ammo, but other than that we could use whatever sidearm we chose. We were required to qualify with them on the range before we could take them to the field.
:salute:
Wow, thats the first time I have heard soldiers carrying Desert Eagles, pretty impressive.

Oh, its you Sonic! Didn't realise
I don't know if all units allow for this, but Army doctrine does. It goes back to early colonial history where soldiers reported for duty with their family arms.
Hi Vika! Yeah, I decided to switch things up a little...
I love it. For instance... Today on Countdown, Im sniping behind the downed heli, two guys come head on, so i don't hear them till the last second, I stand up, shoot one with a chest shot with the USP and the other one gets blown up by my claymore.
weapons that use hte same caliber ammo(using hte same type of bullet) have the same amount of stopping power, it might vary based on the rifling of a barrel but im not sure.
accuracy, recoil, etc are all variable.
id rather have a USP in .45 than a 1911, i just like the feel and the sights of the USP much better, it just feels better in my hand and i can acquire targets with the sights quicker.
