Chambered in .45 Colt/.410, the Rowdy XL seamlessly blends quality with comfort. The enhanced 3.5-inch barrel, compared to the original Rowdy, maintains exceptional accuracy. Following Bond’s tradition, the barrel features two chambers in typical derringer fashion, one above and one below. The overall length is 6 inches, weighing a solid 22 ounces.

The Rowdy XL sets itself apart with its extended grip, meticulously crafted from B6 resin, seamlessly integrating with the robust stainless steel frame. The choice of a ‘blasted’ finish for both the barrel and frame, as opposed to a polished sheen, streamlines production time and reduces costs. This benefit is directly reflected in the consumer-friendly pricing. Priced nearly $250 lower than comparable alternatives, the Rowdy XL delivers exceptional quality and makes a compelling case for an affordable yet high-performance choice in the firearms market.

Bond Arms ensures a distinctive shooting experience with a 7-pound trigger pull, protected by the integrated trigger guard. For those not inclined towards the .45 Colt/.410, Bond Arms offers the flexibility to change barrels and chamberings quickly. Barrels are available for separate purchase on Bond’s website. Reloading is simplified with the left-hand side action release lever, accompanied by a case extractor for swift reloads.

The Rowdy XL delivers substantial cost savings, making it a revolutionary yet cost-effective firearm option for the range and carry. With its low cost, exceptional quality, and caliber-changing capability, the Rowdy XL stands out in the world of firearms.

Stinger Fireball

Granbury, Texas – February 2024– The weight of a firearm is often a major concern for conceal-carry applications, especially when transitioning to a smaller caliber while maintaining the original frame/receiver dimensions. Typically, the additional space is filled with material, contributing to the overall heaviness of the firearm. Bond Arms® addresses this issue with the new Stinger “Fireball.”

Functionally identical to its counterparts, the Stinger “Fireball” receiver remains compatible only with other Stinger Fireball barrels. While maintaining the same dimensions and functionality, the new Stinger “Fireball” distinguishes itself with a lightweight anodized 7075 aluminum frame, adding a sleek two-tone design in black anodizing.

The Stinger “Fireball” ensures easy draw while maintaining the same positioning and function, featuring a low-profile break action lever on the left-hand side. It is factory-chambered in .22 Mag or 327 Fed Mag, unconventional self-defense calibers that nearly match the force of a standard, non +P 9mm. The pistol is equipped with a B6 resin extended grip for superior felt recoil reduction and a secure hold.

Weighing in at only 14.4 ounces, this is one of Bond Arms’ lightest derringers. With a standard 3-inch barrel and an overall length of 5.5 inches, it offers concealability, comfort, and ease of use. Despite its lightweight design, it accommodates two rounds in the chamber with its single-action hammer and a 7-pound trigger pull.

Features:

  • Caliber: .22 Mag, 327 Fed Mag
  • Barrel Length: 3”

BOND ARMS, INC. is located in Granbury, Texas, and manufactures the award-winning Bond Arms Derringer – the finest in double barrel protection. Originally organized under the name Texas Armory, the company became incorporated as Bond Arms in 1995 with the idea that the Remington Model 95 over-under, single-action derringer could be converted from an Old West anachronism into a modern & reliable handgun. The barrel and frame were redesigned to safely fire modern calibers & the entire handgun is constructed entirely from stainless steel. This makes for a pistol that’s both strong and durable.
