The Jericho isn't really "their" gun. They didn't design it; the Israelis did. Magnum Research is simply the U.S. importer.
Also, I'm pretty sure the Desert Eagle's Hollywood stardom began before the Jericho was introduced (1990). It had already been in movies like "Commando", "Red Heat", and "RoboCop" by that time.
