DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY
The Magnuson-Moss Act (Public Law 93-637) does

Notes
Keep It Clean!
1. Be sure to prevent lead build-up in the cylinder and on the piston of your pistols gas system. This
includes the area on the front of the slide around the base of the piston. Use your cylinder lead reamer
every time you clean (approximately 100-200 rounds).
2. Be sure to prevent lead build up on the end of the recoil springs. This includes the surfaces on the
guide rods, on the crossplate, and on the frame itself in the area around the end of the recoil springs.
3. If you should experience trouble with feeding, check inside of the magazine for burrs around
the viewing ports. File off any burrs.
4. If you should experience extraction problems after shooting a number of rounds, check the chamber
for powder residue and brass particle build-up. Swab your barrel and chamber periodically. The
exclusive quick barrel removal feature of the Desert Eagle Pistol makes it easier to clean the barrel.
5. Remember, all ammunition is not made equally! If you should experience consistent failure to feed, but
the pistol works otherwise, change ammo brands.
