In-Game Description |
« | Hollywood made the D50 famous, and tucked into a shipment of pirated DVDs, it’s arrived at Rook Island. When it comes to large pistols, few handguns top this monstrosity. Its massive .50AE round is more than capable of bringing down large animals, humans and even honey badgers. Nearly all D50s on Rook Island were brought here by privateers. | » |
The D50 is a heavy semi-automatic pistol featured in Far Cry 3. Much like the Eagle .50 from the previous installment, the Desert Eagle is unlocked fairly late in the game, becoming available after reaching South Rook Island during the mission "Fly South".
This magnum pistol is overall the strongest handgun in the game, being able to kill most enemies in just one shot and powerful enough to take down an Asian Black Bear in four shots to the body. Unlike the .44 Magnum, the D50 sports a larger magazine as well as a much faster reload time, and offers advanced customization options.
Paint Jobs[]
The look of D50 can be customized with one of six available paint schemes. Each scheme costs $200 and does not affect weapon performance.

Tips[]
- Although the D50 is very powerful, it should only be used at close range since firing any further will render it almost useless unless a sight is attached.
- If the player has the Gunslinger Takedown skill, they will stab the enemy and pull out a D50 from their holster regardless of what the enemy has.
- The D50 is ideal for clearing out squads of enemies, as most of them will be unarmored and can be killed with one shot.
Trivia[]
- The D50 is based on the Desert Eagle Mark XIX.
- The Desert Eagle has appeared in each of the main games in the Far Cry series, although with a different name every time — in Far Cry the weapon has the correct name of Desert Eagle, while in Far Cry 2 it is called the Eagle .50.
- Though it can be assumed the weapon in game uses the .50 AE (Action Express) round, the unmodified real-world counterpart could only accept a seven round magazine when chambered for the .50AE cartridge. However, the barrel can be interchanged with a .44 Magnum and .357 Magnum barrel that accept an eight and nine round magazine, respectively.
- With the 2 Tone Black paint, the D50 looks just like the "Pistol" in Just Cause 2.
- With the Chrome paint, the D50 looks like the previous two versions.
- Watch Dogs, another Ubisoft game also uses the D50 name for the pistol.
