While something is better then nothing,this caliber is pretty weak as a home defense handgun.The minimum considered home defense handgun is the .380 auto caliber.The larger the caliber the better for home defense.Please consider that it is just as important that you shoot whatever you can handle recoil wise with accuracy.
I had one on my home defense gun and hated it. I recommend staying with the factory stock.
Without knowing a make or model, your guess is as good as ours. It could be a really low end manufacturer, or a really high end one - Germany has been home to both kinds.

The term Desert Eagle can mean several things, one of which is the large caliber handgun manufactured by IMI. If the question is "Is the Desert Eagle a good handgun?", then the answer is "yes, if you want a very large, expensive automatic pistol which shoots .357, .41, .44, and .50 caliber bullets." The gun does that very well. As home defense it is NOT good (too heavy and too much chance the bullets to go through things.) Also most people cannot control a high caliber weapon and should use something smaller: a 9mm with hollowpoints** does a great job. ** Hollowpoints are not 'cop-killers' or 'human killers' they are made to reduce possible collateral damage in short distance shootings i.e. they are less likely thana roundnose to go through a burgular, the wall and then your kid - the hollow point means it will stop in the burgular making them a safety item. Anyone who says different needs to back it with physics.
