Q: What has faced down a Pit-bull, confidently passed known gang members, and after 3 calls “show yourself” stopped the slithering sound in the brush. I sometimes use a power-chair. Depending on the situation, I carry “BONDINETTA” in a shoulder holster (strong right) or under a hand towel on my lap locked &. If I had tracks we’re talkin Tank. ( I did put run-flats on it.) She’s 10 this summer, an meaner than ever. “Cuttin PENNYE” Big M town, TN

My wife just purchased a Bond Arms Century 2000 derringer in .38 spcl/.357 mag and absolutely loves it. It is our family’s 2nd Bond Arms gun following my purchase some years back of a Snake Slayer IV. In our experience, these are the finest quality derringers available and some of the best made firearms in the world. Each one is a masterpiece of engineering and solid construction, every piece made of solid, machined stainless steel. We have ordered spare barrels for our 2 Bond Arms and thoroughly enjoy shooting these improved versions of a timeless firearms design from the days of the “Old West”. We cannot overstate the great quality built into Bond Arms products and heartily endorse them to anyone seeking a strong, reliable defense gun.

I recently purchased the Texas Defender and am very impressed with this gun. Although my intention is to use it primarily as a snake gun, it is so easy to carry that it may well be my concealed carry pistol. The recoil with 410 shells is very manageable, and it is fun to shoot. Just ordered the 9 mm barrel and am looking forward to that caliber too! The staff at your office are very helpful. Thanks for an excellent firearm.

This gun not only looks good, it feels good in my hand and I love shooting it. I’ve taken my .410 shotgun with me for years, but you have to leave in the vehicle when you get out to check on something or do your job. I may be very far from it when I would see a snake, then by the time I got back with my shotgun he would be out of site. Cannot tell you how nice it is to have a “Double-Barrel” .410 in my pocket or on my belt. Very nice to carry!

I recently had an incident with my Bond Texas Defender. It was dropped on a concrete floor, possibly damaging it. I contacted Bond Arms and they asked me to send my firearm to them for inspection and repair of any damage. Having concerns about the shipping and return of my weapon across state lines (I don’t trust federal laws), I showed up at Bond Arms unannounced on Friday, November 6th and was greeted by Bob and treated as a highly valued customer. I was given a tour of the plant and introduced to several employees. The plant is very impressive due to the state-of-the-art machinery and methods in use. At the final assembly and inspection station I was introduced to Nathan Bond who was asked if he could fit my weapon into his schedule for the day, to which he promptly agreed. I left the firearm with Bond Arms and went to lunch. One hour latter I received a phone call informing me my firearm was ready. When I arrived to pick up my firearm, it was returned to me in like new condition. The only way I could tell it from new was by the serial number. All of this attention was given to a weapon that is almost fifteen years old , and that I have carried almost everyday. To me this is a very good demonstration of commitment to customer service. To everyone at Bond Arms I’d like to say thank you for your prompt and friendly service. - Larry L. Graham

My Bond Arms .45 backup is 10 times better then the doubletap .45 I got rid of. I wish I would have bought this gun from the start.

I don’t normally fill these out, but had had to mention the excellent treatment I received from Amy when I purchased the Sturgis 75th model. She was knowledgable and thorough when explaining the features of the gun. I spoke with her 3 times before purchasing it. She was very easy to do business with every time! The gun itself his of the highest quality and is perfect for conceal carry. I ended up purchasing and additional barrel and 2 additional holsters. Thank You!

On a recent hunting trip to Colo I took along my new Bond Arms Papa Bear model handgun. It is in 45 Colt cal. I was concerned that it would have a tremendous recoil. However, when I fired the Papa, it was surprisingly very controllable. I let another hunter shoot it and he loved it. In fact he when to a local ranch supply business in town and wanted to buy one. Everyone who handled the gun was surprised at the quality of construction. Living in Cali I couldn’t purchase the Snake Slayer model so I am now looking for some 45 cal shot cartridges.

Although I’ve written before , I just had to thank you at Bond Arms for such a fine firearm. If you understand , I got this in mid-summer , and like this Snake Slayer better now even more than the day I got it. Thank all of you for keeping us safe , and yes , I just got my conceal carry license. - N M Hvarre, WI

Love the 38/357 barrel..and we are ordering a twent two, pistol for my wife.. Call me if you are not sure. I will help, I believe and seen the quality of this pistol, I will buy more for my family and friends. - Eddie Fischer, JR (retired law officer)
