I have fired my 357/38 Texas Defender with the 3 inch barrel. The top barrel is right on target and the lower barrel shoots low, I will figure out the elevation needed to get shots on the X. I have taken advantage of the reduced price on a second barrel and I’m looking forward to firing the 4.25 inch .45/.410 when it arrives. I hope that you will consider making a .45/.410 carbine. Thank you.

Yes, I have fired my first Bond Arms gun, (Texas), handles very well , I ordered another barrel and a holster, and strongly thinking about getting another Bond Arms derringer shortly.

I fired my new Cowboy Defender with both 410 and long Colt 45 rounds last weekend. My target was a torso sized cardboard box I placed on a 1″ pvc pipe. My first shot with the 45 round at 30 yards was pretty much in the center of the box and completely destroyed the pvc pipe inside. I was impressed. I was also pleased that the recoil was far less than I had expected. Love the gun.

The Texas Defender is just what I was looking for in a home and personnel defense gun! I tried both the colt 45lc and 410 thriple o buck shot. Being 65 and not to steadty holding the gun still, I like the triple o buck shot over the 45 colt lc. The kick of the 2.5 inch barrel is managable for my age. Thanks for such a nice pistol!!! 5 stars rating from me!!!!

Bond Arms has created a very fine handgun with what’s called their Backup model. There’s not one thing that I don’t like about this fine handgun, although it is unfortunate that there’s currently a 4-week backlog to get a good holster for it… but I trust it will be worth the wait.

I finally had my long awaited opportunity to fire my new Snake Slayer. It’s in the 410/45 long caliber. It was a great experience and quite an attraction at the range. I was not sure what to expect with the accuracy but I am very pleased. I had a very nice pattern at 20 yards with the 45 Colt. I also purchased the BAD Driving Holster which is extremely well made and fits the Snake Slayer like a glove. I’m proud to have this combination in my inventory.

Purchased a snake slayer recently and absolutely love it. Besides being a fun gun to shoot, it provides an excellent self defense tool. I shot a number of different types of shot shells to get an idea of the coverage and the gun was very comfortable shooting all of them. Love having a shotgun in my hand and it is indeed a “hand cannon”.

Great craftsmanship, shoots very nice 357, 38special, also bought second barrel 410 and 45 colt, love it.

Great gun and easy to control. Waiting for the 357 barrel that I ordered. Recoil is mild with Hornady Critical Defence 45 Colt ammo.

My Snake Slayer is all I had hoped it would be. Barrels change in seconds. The firearm is built like a tank. A two level hard case has been set up for it, its barrels, and ammo. Well done, Bond Arms.
