I mean, I can believe that some guns may jam, but I honestly have to say, inexpert that I am, the main Israeli arms manufacturer, of one the most technologically advanced military forces in the world, is not going to mass produce a gun that doesnt work. if you look after this piece I am sure it will work fine 99.9% of times, and its stopping power is off the hook.

Um, this gun is not used by the Israeli Military, at least not as far as I know. If you can find evidence that I am wrong then please post it.
Rather, the Desert Eagle is made for people like you, who want the biggest gun they can find. It is for civilians who either just want a toy, or are substituting.
It's a shame you live in England, because you probably will not have much opportunity to actually go fire a bunch of weapons and become proficient enough with them to form some educated opinions, but you can read some of the posts about this sort of thing on some of the gun forums.
For instance:
www.thehighroad.org
www.packing.org
www.thefiringline.com (this was shut down, but the posts are still archived for searches)
www.tacticalforums.org (I am not sure about the URL on this one)
Oh, and by the way, most handguns will go through a wall and still be able to kill...walls are not normally very good at stopping bullets.
