Derringer Defense: Bond Arms Texan

Published

on

Is it the world’s most powerful derringer or the world’s smallest double-barrel shotgun?

That’s a fine point for debate back at the lodge in front of a roaring fire. If, instead, you’re out in the backwoods in front of a roaring bear, you won’t be worried about semantics. You’ll be reaching for the Bond Arms Texan, chambered in a confidence-inducing .45 Long Colt, as well as 3-inch .410 shotshells.

The folks at Bond Arms may be known for making some of the most ultra-compact handguns available for concealed carry, but what happens when they add a little size to one of their models? You get a firearm that promises shooting fun as big as all Texas. With that in mind, the Bond Arms Texan with its 6-inch barrel is easily the company’s largest model handgun and one of the most accurate of the bunch.

The 6-inch double barrels deliver not only impressive accuracy and increased velocity over shorter barreled models, but also look impressive with a stainless-steel finish, handsomely appointed with an extended rosewood grip. Etched into the grip is an attractive outline of the state of Texas emblazoned with a star over it and crisscrossing snakes at the bottom.

Other key features include Bond Arms’ retracting firing pins and cross-bolt safety, spring-loaded and cammed locking lever, and a full trigger guard. The gun is topped with a front blade and fixed rear sight. The sights, along with the longer sighting plane provided by the 6-inch barrels, makes aiming easy and getting back on target for a follow-up shot a cinch.

Like all Bond Arms handguns, the barrels of the Texan are interchangeable to allow for the installation of shorter barrels or chambering for different calibers. The overall length of the handgun is 8.125 inches, and the overall weight is 27 ounces. The Texan retails for $600, and you can get one of your own from Gunprime (great prices and service guaranteed!) right here!
