love my snakeslayer 4 and the nice leather holster. very nice

Just want to thank you for the great customer service and a really outstanding handgun. The fit and function is superb….I purchased a Texas Defender with 3 ” barrel chambered for 38SPL/.357 w/ B.A.D. driving holster and was amazed at how well these products were made. This little holster is one of the most comfortable I own. I then ordered the 3.5 ” barrel chambered for 45Colt/410 and a set of Pearlite extended grips and love this transformation. Best part was that the grips came in on my birthday and timing couldn’t have been better. I’ve shot about 20 rounds of each caliber thru it and must say that recoil is no problem at all. This is now my everyday carry. Thank you all at Bond Arms for such a well made weapon. A true work of art!!!

Love my new SnakeSlayer. Right size, right weight, well-built. And what a 410 slug or buckshot does to a piece of 1/2 inch pressboard is really impressive. My wife even likes shooting it.

OK. Here goes, I removed my new Band Arms 45LC Mini from the box, loaded it and fired it at paper plate from about 6 feet. The first round struck just off from the plate high and left. I re-cocked and took aim again. This time taking into consideration the strike of my first round. I struck the plate just a little left and above center. During the next set of two rounds, I was quite pleased with my ability to group rounds very near or in the center of my target. I now carry the little goomer everywhere I go. Yes I have a CPL. It is a great little backup gun. I am looking forward to owning several different configurations of Bond Arm products.

ran an assortment 410 and 45lc through my new texas defender recently, great results, will buy another. thanks,leo

I have I few cc pieces that work wonderfully when I dress around them. Which means the way I carry (outside the waist band) means an extra shirt which gets pretty warm from time to time. I tried to pocket carry my j frame but even with a pocket holster prints and you know have something more than keys in my pocket. So I picked up a Texas Defender and it works perfectly. Slip it into my front pocket and no one can tell due to the slim size and no bulge of a cylinder and an added plus it is chambered in .357 so no need to break into a new caliber yet.

This grip makes a great difference for people with large hands. It helps when using 358 ammo. The fit to the gun is right on Didn’t have to do anything only remove one grip and put the other on. Very happy with grip and service.

What a beautiful hand gun that just emits a quality that everyone recognizes the moment they hold it. In shooting, it is definitely not a pea shooter, but a barker with a bite.

I recently purchased a Bond Arms Texas Defender with 3″ 38 spl/.357Mag with B.A.D. Holster and this has become one of my favorite handguns. Having a Taurus Judge I ordered the 3.5 inch 45LC/410 shotgun load. Having the ability to change barrels and ability to shoot various calibers has made me a Bond Arms fan. Am patiently awaiting the extended Pearlite grips that were ordered in December. This has now become my everyday carry. Small, powerful, wellbuilt, easy to conceal and carry. Thank you Bond Arms for an excellant product!!

This is the first derringer I’ve ever owned. Wanted a weapon that would accommodate the .410 shot shell. Researched the internet. Settled on Bond Arms. Called the factory. All my questions were answered and then some. Chose the Texas Defender with Trigger Guard. Made a mistake by ordering from a BIG BOX sporting goods store. Item was shipped wrong. I didn’t check it completely when I took it out of the store. When I tried to return it they refused. They told me that I might have took it out of the store and shot someone. I thought I was done. Called Bond Arms again. They explained that this sometimes happens with BIG BOX stores because most of their items come from other distributors instead of BOND ARMS. BOND ARMS offered to help me any way they could. After several days of phone calls, Emails, and hassles The BIG BOX store came through with a refund. I re-ordered through my local FFL dealer direct to BOND ARMS. Item was received correctly within two days. Small fee was charged by dealer which was no problem. Highly satisfied with everything BOND ARMS did for me. It is the best manufactured weapon in it’s class. I would recommend this weapon above all the rest in it’s class. BOND ARMS cannot be beat for manufacturing and customer service. Try not to make the mistake that I did on my first order. When you order your new BOND ARMS DERRINGER, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Thanks.
