The '''IWI Jericho 941''' series of handguns, (formerly the "'''IMI Jericho 941'''" under the company's older name) is an Israeli semi-automatic handgun that has been in production since 1990 and is still in service in Israel as well as a number of other nations. The gun's name originally comes from the cartridges it was to be chambered in: The [[9x19mm Parabellum]], as well as the [[.41 Action Express]], though the latter never took off.

The Jericho 941 is largely based on the [[CZ-75]], a well-proven combat/service handgun. IMI sourced their parts from Italian firearms manufacturer [[Tanfoglio]], who was (and still is) famous for their own CZ-75 clones. This allowed them to begin with a proven and reliable design from the start without many of the growing pains that can come along with designing a completely new gun, especially in the case of a service firearm.

The Jericho 941 series has been sold by a number of other companies over the years, under several different names. [[Magnum Research]] imported them and sold them as the '''Baby Desert Eagle''', which made sense, considering the Jericho 941 does share ''some'' resemblance to the full-sized [[Desert Eagle]]. It was also sold as the '''Uzi Eagle''' by [[Mossberg]].
