I have been in the market for a .45/.410 gun. I researched and researched and luckily the day I went to purchase another brand, the store was out. Fast forward 10 months and I had the opportunity to purchase again. I researched again and this time stumbled onto Bond Arms. I immediately fell for the SSIV 4.25" and bought it a few days later.

It took me a couple weeks before I was able to shoot my new toy. I was as excited as a 8-yr old getting my first baseball glove from Santa. I had anticipated and was ready for the kick from the 3" #4 shot. It was not bad and less than I had expected. The normal handle is a little small for my hand (my ring finger and pinky hang over the bottom) so I am ordering the Jumbo Rosewood Grip.

Shooting a .45 then a 3" 000 buckshot is awesome. I just received my 4.25" 9mm barrel. Cant wait to shoot it as well.

I now have a continuous list of Christmas presents from my family. Thanks Bond Arms....
