If Thor had a handgun, there is no question that it would be anything other than a mighty Desert Eagle pistol.
Viking cultural traditions have been a powerful influence on modern warrior culture, with their devotion to battle, and to the weapons they carried. Norse long swords taken from archeological digs inspire the Viking L5 Desert Eagle. Each of these custom handguns has a weathered finish that is hand distressed to resemble ancient blades and protected by a clear coat finish to be both unique and durable.
The result is a visually striking and unique firearm that combines the rugged, sophisticated design of the Desert Eagle with the ancient, mythic imagery of Norse culture.
Without question, the Viking L5 Desert Eagle is the perfect collectible piece for gun enthusiasts with an interest in Norse history and culture.
