I bought the Bond Mini Girl for three reasons 1)For my wife. 2)I always was intrigued about the derringer. 3)The sales price of $350.00 was impossible to beat. (Acadamy Sports). Well, I got the gun home and my wife loved it. Her hand was a perfect fit. We both appreciated the balance and the precise fit of the barrel to the frame. I took the gun the the range, started out with the 38’s and from seven feet put two holes in the paper a half inch apart. Shot another thirty rounds with roughly the same results. Moved on to the 357’s rounds, a bit stiffer to handle but not to bad. First two holes about 2 inches apart. Went on to shot another 10 rounds. The last two in the same hole. What a weapon to own!!!!! Came home and showed my wife the targets, and she could see by my expression how much I was impressed. The next day I ordered the 45/410 barrel (4.25 in.). I fully expected not to receive the barrel for 4 to 6 weeks as advertised but got within 2 weeks. Needless to say the fit was perfect. Took it the range with a mixture of loads, it handled all of them without beating up my hand. I am afraid that my wife will have to wait awhile until I can save up to buy her another Bond Derringer because this one is mine. She is a great wife and understands my limited needs. Thank goodness! This is now my everyday carry. Keep up the great work and more and more people will benefit because of it. - Sincerely Jeffrey Hendron!
