after the fact was this a good deal?

IWI Magnum Research Desert Eagle 40SW. Very lightly used - looks brand new. I paid $400 to a private seller at a gun show.

Seemed like a pretty good deal but I don't know much about Desert Eagles. About what is this gun worth?

Never ask that question here. Half will tell you got screwed. Even if you paid $1. The other half will tell you that you should have bought a Glock.
If you are happy with the purchase, enjoy.

P.S. Check Gunbroker.com for a realistic value of used guns.

At $400 I figured I could shoot it some and if I didn't like it should at least be able to get that back out of it. Just curious as to how good of a deal it might have been if at all.

P.S. Glock sucks

If you like it, you paid just enough. $400 ain't bad at all, Tanfoglio frame and slide with Israeli internals.

You got a good deal. I see the, go for that price used on a regular basis.

Enjoy your great gun. They really are fun.

And BTW, that gun is not technically a Desert Eagle it is a "Baby Eagle" also known as the Jericho.

Should have gotten a Glock! kidding!

It was a good deal.

I was just told that was a great gun, by a dealer who bought one for himself. You seem to have done well.
