Just 35 miles from the sprawl of Fort Worth, Granbury, Texas is home to 8,000 residents. Granbury is a small town full of American pride and faith, exactly what makes this nation great. Perhaps it’s only fitting that in this town, some of the best, most compact handguns designed for concealed carry are also made. This is where Bond Arms calls home, founded in 1995 by Greg Bond, brother of current company owner Gordon Bond.
In building what would become the best modern double barrel available, Bond completely redesigned every aspect of the model starting with the frame, formed from lost wax stainless castings, which offers superior strength and durability shot after shot. Other design enhancements from the original double barrel design include changing the safety so it can be manipulated from left to right in order to allow the right-hand thumb to adjust the safety to fire. Their double-barrel pistols feature a rebounding hammer design and a wider hammer that allows for smoother, faster cocking.
Today, Bond Arms has grown into the leader of the double barrel industry, particularly where new product development is concerned. These guns are made from high-quality, stainless steel and other heavy-duty, top-grade materials. All Bond Arms firearms are put through the strictest manufacturing processes to ensure a quality product with every single double barrel.
“We’re one of the few manufacturers that still builds exclusively in the U.S. and uses American-made parts for all of our handguns,” says Gordon Bond, owner of Bond Arms. “We like to say, ‘100 percent Texas Made.’ Even our grips and holsters are made in the U.S.A.”
Some of the most popular models offered by Bond Arms include the Texas Defender, Cowboy Defender, Snake Slayer, and Snake Slayer IV, the Ranger and Ranger II, the USA Defender, the Mini 45 and the Girl Mini. Bond Arms’ double barrels have not only become a top choice among serious concealed carry adherents but are also very popular on the cowboy action shooting circuit, where the spirit of the old West is celebrated and lives on in Bond Arms’ handguns.
Bond Arms not only makes the top double barrels available today, but they also make and offer a full line of accessories for their handguns. These accessories include holsters, carry cases and extended grips.

Own a Snake Slayer IV. Carry it always. Great Gun and fun to shoot.
I’ve had the Snake Slayer IV coming up on 9 years in late February. Still as good as new. Also have the 22LR, 22WMR, and the .38/.357 barrels. Still my favorite is the 45LC/.410 that it came with. If you want to carry something reasonably compact, that packs a punch, the Bond Arms Derringer is worth a test run. Built to last a lifetime, or two, or . . .
