I get what you're saying, The reason why the desert eagle should be buffed is that the desert eagle is VERY situational, and it doesn't even preform well in these situations. The desert eagle is good when an enemy has low HP and then you OHK the them. However if the enemy has full HP or enough HP to tank the 1st shot, then it becomes 2 HK which is quite bad. This puts a HUGE time gap between the killing time of the weapon. A OHK is a instant kill VS 2 HK is about 1 sec. Im not saying that the desert eagle should be a OHK, that would be OP. And what makes the desert eagle preform bad in the situation it SHOULD be good in is that is low accuracy/high spread makes in hard to hit the enemy, so often that OHK is delayed by 3 secs of just shooting the person and praying that the bullet hits the person within the huge spread bloom.

Now im not saying that the K5/g23 is so much better. being around a 4-5 shot kill is quite weak but if you aim and make ur bullet count, then u can quickly kill an enemy is around 1 sec. So the main thing that makes the K5/G23 better than the Desert eagle (not by a HUGE margin but rather a fair one) is that if you can aim, you can kill. VS the desert eagle the main factor is luck rather than skill, you can aim but you can only hope the bullet hits the enemy in the huge massive spread bloom.
