I was surprised to find the recoil easy to handle. I love the options for this gun and can make different “guns” for different uses. Great job guys!

I ordered a 2.5in 357/38special and a 9mm barrel for my husband as a Christmas present. He has the Century 2000 and loves it! Bond arms way exceeded my expectations by getting it to me early. My husband took them out yesterday and both shoot straight as an arrow!! You guys are tops on everything!!!!

I received a Snake Slayer for Christmas and had a chance to fire it not long afterward. I bought some 45 colt range loads and used some 410 3″ animal load rounds that I keep. Expecting to have some serious “kick”, I was prepared. The surprise was that neither the 45 or 410 rounds had any greater kick that my XDS 45. Love the gun and have now found a second carry weapon for those times I need a smaller weapon.

I am very pleased with my .45 ACP “Backup” derringer! I was surprised how accurate the gun was out to 7 yards, no problem hitting a target at that range. Deadly. Recoil totally manageable too! Quality craftsmanship makes this pistol the perfect “back up”!

I was able to take my mini to my in laws and do some target shooting. I went through 50 rounds before I even knew it! I love the .38 barrel, but I am really excited to get my 410 barrel, that should be here today or tomorrow!!! I absolutely love my mini!!

I am a first time customer of Bond Arms and I could not be happier with my purchase my Backup 45 functioned flawlessly and with a little practice it has become my carry choice. I purchased an additional barrel and extended grip and Joe was excellent to work with answering all of my questions and helping me make an informed decision as to what caliber would best serve me as a secondary set up. It is a pleasure to do business with a company who supports Emergency Services and Law Enforcement. Thanks for a great product. Keep up the super work.

Gun was very capable. handling took some getting used to, IE keeping hand web away from hammer. ergonomically with my hand, I wanted to grasp trigger up high which won’t pull the trigger. I thought it was jammed but realized I needed to pull/squeeze down near the bottom by trigger guard. Shoots very well, can’t wait to try out my .38 barrel when it comes. A load i’m more in tune with.

I had the best experience with your company, any one could have. I wrote to you regarding an up grade on my cowboy defender. What you did was over and above what was expected. I will not go to a lot of detail. Suffice it to say that a THANK YOU is not enough. I am in deed in your debt. I plan on making a trip to Texas this spring. I will be looking for an area to move to. I will make it a priority to visit you, and say THANK YOU n person. Of course I will have my pistol with me. If I can be of service to you, please DO NOT hesitate to call upon me. If you are going to be at the Shot Show, I would deem it an honor if called me and allowed me to buy you a drink, or better yet, to grace my home with your presence.

I enjoy my Bond Arms Snake Slayer IV. It is a lot of fun shooting 3″ .410 shells. The gun is very well built. I have already bought another barrel (.40 s&w) and other accessories for it. I would like to get all of the caliber barrels my friends and family have, so when they go shooting I can easily join in. The barrels are very easy to change and you even get an allen wrench with your new barrel. It makes the perfect personal defense item.

I just got back from a two day hiking/camping trip in the North Georgia Mountains on the Appalachian trail. I carried the Texas Defender in the Bond Arms sticky pocket holster in my front hip pocket while hiking for 12 miles over strenuous mountain terrain. I did not find the 20oz weight of this gun to be difficult to carry in the pocket at all, most of the time I didn’t notice the weight at all. I also think since this pistol is stainless steel and has less moving parts than other compact handguns that it will have a fewer malfunctions when exposed to rain and dirt in a outdoor environment. I have never had a problem with bears while hiking in the mountains, but the large caliber options for this handgun I think would appeal to people who like to carry some protection against bear attacks. It doesn't matter if you carry it in the city or the woods, Bond arms makes the best handgun on the market.
