Bond Arms Derringer - Range Shooting - TheFireArmGuy
The Bond Arms Texas Defender is a robust two-shot derringer chambered in .410 shotshells and .45 Long Colt. While compact at 20 ounces, it delivers a significant 'pop' and recoil, especially with self-defense loads like the Winchester PDX1 Defender. The wide spread of birdshot from Remington game loads at 9 yards was notable, and the trigger pull requires a specific downward and rearward motion. Despite the recoil, experienced shooters will find it manageable.
