My first pistol was a 9mm Baby Eagle and to this day I still love shooting it any chance I get. When I got that one (pre internet times) I had heard they made one in .45 but as much as I’ve looked I haven’t seen one in person over the last 15 years. When I came across this one I couldn’t resist, I had to add it to the collection. It’s been used and abused...now it’s time to strip it for refinishing and bring it back to life

Pretty cool. I’ve never shot a Baby Eagle, but I always thought they looked like nice pistols.

Used to own a baby eagle! It was the first gun I ever bought! Regret selling now. Great pistols and shoot like a dream.

They really are great guns. Very well built, reliable as all hell and extremely accurate. I’ve had my 9mm 16 years, put over 2500 rounds through it and not only does it still hit right where I want it but in all the time I’ve had it I’ve never once had it jam on my no matter how dirty it was or what kind of ammo I fed it. If you find one, buy it. You won’t regret it
