genie

i just picked this up last night and i'm still a bit giddy. my new beauty is a very shiny desert eagle. i'm thinking of naming her bella.
what made me so tickled is that this genie lives in maryland so most handguns made after 1/1/03 are banned unless they have an integrated key operated safety and are approved by our state police. so of course all new magnum research handguns are now banned. but a local gunshop got this beauty from their distributor that was nib and made back in 2002 - before the ban.
i know all the wise folk who say desert eagles are impractical, large, expensive....but she's so pretty! and that ruled out rationalization. this is the first gun i've bought that's not in tactical black or grey but i figured it's a good choice to be all shiny.
(hopefully these pics will show. please do be kind and pardon my sucky photo skills....)
