I am able to openly carry in Wisconsin. I HAVE HAD MANY PEOPLE ASK , … WHAT IS THAT FIREARM ? Out of my holster can be seen my “Snake Slayer” , … reactions are ALWAYS WOW , … I HAVE TO GET ONE OF THOSE. Just the other day , at the gas station , an example. The owner was so empresed , he had me talking “BOND ARMS” for over an hour. The next day , … I brought him a brochure that you folks had sent me , …. his brother was there , …. he two was excited to hold and see such a tool and work of art. Thank you for sending brochures to me, … I am proud to talk “BOND” everywhere. OH , My wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday , … well , she just ordered me another barrel , … now have three , … she said , “I know you will have all of them , … lol , …I just smiled. - N.M.

Expecting a quality product I was not surprised to find the Snake Slayer IV holster was everything I was looking for and consisting of the finest materials and workmanship.

Saved up for 6 months for the Defender and was estatic when I finally got it. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet, due to not having the time right now, BUT I will! Was hoping to buy the .22 LR barrel with the extra barrel deal Bond offers, but that barrel isn’t part of that deal. Don’t know why, would be nice if it was.

I’ve been wanting this gun for a while now. Finally purchased it, had to wait a week before I was able to fire some rounds. I wont lie, it kicks like a mule, but best damn gun I’ve ever bought!

I am a Disabled Veteran confined to a wheel chair and I needed some protection. That being said; I purchased the Snake Slayer IV, not only for the small size but the need for the hand cannon effect (shotgun). I have put many rounds down range and found the weapon to be nothing but entirely fun to use as well as totally appropriate for its intended purpose for protection! I have heard many individuals write reviews describing the enormous kick from the gun… to those individuals; I would suggest a BB gun… if you can’t fire a shotgun; this is not the weapon for you, very little kick. The weapon is very loud but that is to be expected. The weapon is also built like a tank. Dropped the weapon a couple of times on hardwood floors as well as concrete (accidently dropped). The only thing that kinda bugs me is the big forward sight on the gun… I really don’t see a need for it, most shotguns only have kinda like a BB for the front site (if anything at all). I understand this particular weapon will fire a multitude of various different kinds of ammo but the weapon is primarily for protection and from myself and all accounts I have read, it is not accurate past 20 or 30 feet (although both barrel do hit the same hole, everytime)… not supposed to have the accuracy of a sniper rifle. Incredibly good weapon for its intended purpose!

Finally opted for an extended grip for my cowboy, Have had the derringer for quite some time but found shooting 45 and 410 rounds caused slippage on recoil. Tried skate board tape but that can rub you raw also. settled on the double star extended grip, attractive, well designed and certainly helps control the recoil. The grip isn’t gauddy and has some very nice checkering panels which feels good in the hand. I have one gripe, should have gotten these grips years ago. Definitely a keeper.

I recently purchased a Century 2000 in early May, 2016. I was initially going to spend less and upgrade my Beretta with some Wilson parts. However, it is fishing weather and we have seen cotton mouths at one of the spots we go to. I started thinking something for snakes would be useful.

I started watching youtube videos and reading reviews. I knew I wanted a .45 Colt/.410 barrel. It seemed like a 3 1/2″ barrel would be a good compromise. My previous solution to the serpent problem had been my .357 lcr loaded with shotshells. However, for me the best place for that gun is on my hip. That left me with an LCP in my pocket for defense. .380 is better than a .22 and a .22 is better than harsh language, however, I prefer something bigger.

So I informed my wife that I would hold off and save some more and get a snake gun. She asked how much it was and said, “Go get it. Happy early Father’s Day.” I love my wife. Next day I got my C2K. It’s an awesome little gun. Mine is the older style but it works very well. Trigger isn’t bad like some say, just a little different.

I found 2 1/2″ # 9 and # 8 pattern pretty good. Winchester Super Speed # 6 works really well too. I was surprised at the accuracy of .45 colt as well. What surprised me most was looking into the federal .410 handgun 000 buckshot. On paper and on tests it is pretty mean at close range. Even more surprising is that it is loaded with that and in my pocket when I leave the house now.

I still carry a 1911 on my hip. The C2K is a pocket gun. It is for up close, nasty work. I use the sticky holster they sell on the site in my pocket. It works, but is a 1 size fits all type holster. I am glad I have it. 2 days after I got the holster and started carrying it I feel I came the closest I have to clearing leather in the 7 years I’ve had my CHL.

I was at walmart at midnight ( I know, I know ) and apparently offended a couple of drunks as I walked around them to go in. They were standing in front of the door, blocking my entrance. Long and short as I was leaving the hair on my neck was standing up and I really felt they were going to make me shoot them. A terrible feeling.

During the whole encounter I had my hand on my Bond Arms pistol in my pocket. Having your hand in your pocket is a non-threatening gesture and can give you an option if things start heading south instead of grabbing the gun on your hip. Very glad I bought it. I plan on getting the BAD holster for road trips. I also am thinking of adding a backup in .45 ACP with the 2″ barrel. Looks like it would be a good “always gun.”

All in all, this is a very neat little gun. It can fill a good niche. I would not recommend this as a primary carry. However, as a back up, snake or utility gun, I would highly recommend it.

Hi. I bought this gun for a carry gun after shoulder replacement I’m carrying left handed I’ve only shot it 4 times .410 with my left hand it had a little recoil but manageable I will try my .357 barrel next I’m very impressed with it.

I like the wonderful little gun i got and good to and easy to shoot.

I own several guns,and the snake slayer IV is absolutely hands down the best gun that I have ever owned. I had a little trouble pulling the trigger and hammer as I have arthritis in both hands,so I watched a few videos on YouTube about bond arms guns,specifically about getting familiar with the gun and how to fire it,after that no problems, Mr. Gordon Bond explains how to properly shoot the weapon,I found out that I was doing it all wrong @I would suggest that everyone watch this video,it will make your experience much more enjoyable.And just let me say that this is a sweet shooting gun, very little recoil when shooting 45 long colt and 410 buckshot .This is and will always be my carry gun. Thanks again to all the folks at bond arms for the quality service and products that you produce.
