Desert Eagle
The Desert Eagle is a powerful gas operated pistol firing either .357, .44 or .50 AE ammunition, designed by Magnum Research of the United States and produced by IMI of Israel. Although it is not an effective combat pistol--due to it's heavy weight, large size and the size of it's ammunition, it is popular in action movies and video games.
In Chronicles you can also attach the Lasersight to it.
This weapon is quite effective, similar to the Revolver , but in Tomb Raider 3 it tends to be even more powerful, there is also a decent amount of ammo for it, making it arguably the best weapon in the game.
Two to three shots will kill most baddies.
