---------What handgun scope do you recommend?

gofish

I want to hang a scope on a Desert Eagle 50AE w/ 10" barrel. What scope will hold up to recoil? Thank you.

Redfield has always worked for me on a 44mag,I also have one on a .480Ruger without any problems.I do recommend a little locktite.

Good Luck.

I have a Leupold Gilmore LG35 on the same gun. I have had good luck with it since I have installed it correctly. First, I tightened the scope rings too tight at the top, which, under that amount of recoil, cracked the lens. I had it fixed for free from Gilmore, and they told me to pay special attention to the directions which state that a small gap needs to be left at the top of the rings. Has held up for a couple of years now. Great product.

A great rifle with a junk scope,....is junk.

I'm a big fan of Burris for handgun scopes, have one on my Desert Eagle and have been very pleased with it....here are some links to check out....

Strongest, and best handgun scope made is a Burris.
They hold more records than any other manufacturer.
A proper mounting system, done correctly will remove problems.

Happy Bullet Holes!
