For the most part, the Eagle's good features have not changed. All guns still have the mirror-smooth polygonal rifling that produces such fine accuracy with jacketed bullets. The trigger pull is adjustable, and the factory sights are the same large, black, rugged, dovetailed, non-adjustable, highly visible square rear sight notch and ramped front blade that have been around for awhile. If you can't zero your favorite load, Millet makes adjustable sights specifically for the Eagle. The adjustable trigger dates back to the Mark VII, and the fixed sights have been on the guns even longer.
Grips are hard, lightly pebbled plastic and are extremely tough while being relative thin.
Unless you have small hands, the gun's ergonomics are good. Sometimes the .50 AE and .440 Cor-Bon rotate enough to eject empty cases into the shooter's face rather than high and off to the side like the .44 and .357 Magnums. If you have this problem, there are some different things you might try. First, and least expensive in terms of hardware modification, is to install Hogue finger-groove rubber grips. The grooves may allow you to control the torque sufficiently so that the gun doesn't rotate and send the empties to smack you in the face.
