The Pistol .50 in GTA 5 is based on the real-life Desert Eagle. This weapon has the Hawk & Little lettering and logo on both sides of its body. It is designed just like the Desert Eagle except for the side-mounted safety and the barrel lock which have been changed. It has a tritium-illuminated iron sight like the Pistol and Combat Pistol. At the front end of the gun there is an inscription that says “.50 CAL” which signifies the .50 Caliber used by this weapon.
The Pistol .50 is a great pistol and does a great amount of damage. Its only downside is the high recoil which can delay the next shot by a second. However, this weapon can take out armored enemies in 2-3 shots to the body in close to medium range. The range of this weapon as well as its accuracy is not quite good but it works just fine up to a medium range. It has a mag capacity of 9 rounds only which can be increased to 12 rounds with the extended clip. This weapon is not the ideal choice for drive-bys although it is very effective against NPCs making it a great choice in gunfights.
