I sometimes carry a NAA 22Mag revolver when I can't carry anything else. I've seen a couple of the Bond Derringers and was wondering if anyone on THF carried one and how they liked it?

In an earlier post I reported about a 100# trigger pull on the .45-.410 one I shot.

Built ;like a tank though, very high quality

Really, 100lb trigger pull? Man I better start working out wit some weights.

One of our lease member's has one. Killed many a snake with it. Recoil isn't as bad as I was expecting, even though I refer to it as the "pocket rocket"

Why?? They weigh about 9 pounds, are expensive, and there's only two rounds. Buy an air weight smith, lcp, glock, vaquero, full size 1911, desert eagle.. there are way better choices out there for carry.

I carried one for several months. It was ok but its as big as most compact semi autos and only carries 2 rounds.

Bunch of bad info on this post.....100 lb trigger pull.. come on. 9 lbs....how about 1.3 lbs. Try firing shotshells with a glock or lc9. Great weapon and made in Texas.

Like I said in the beginning, I carry an NAA 22mag when I can't carry my Kahr 40 or my LCP. But I was interested in the 45 as you could load up some 410 Defensive ammo, plus I've got plenty of 45 and 357/38 ammo. Another plus would be the SD ammo that is made in 45/38+p. Thanks for the replies and keep them coming.

Derringers are fun but as a carry I prefer something with more than two rounds and default to my 380. As far as a snake gun while hunting, I find it to be vey practical.

How did you end up with a 1.3 lbs pull on your derringer?

That was in reference to it weighing 9 lbs. I would guess it close to 20 lbs pull on the trigger

I've handled many bond arms and while they are a fine weapon, I don't really like the bulkiness of them compared to other derringer style pistols. For alot less $$ Cobra makes a great product that performs nothing short of a bond arms and a bit smaller. For defensive purposes, I've always considered them a backup to my main sidearm or just one to throw in my pocket on a hot summer day when I'm out and about. When it's the only one I have, the 2 shots are much better than a slap in the face.
