We caught up with them at SHOT Show 2020 to get an update on their much-anticipated firearm and to let you know about another less-expensive version of their popular design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Slim Line handgun will feature an aluminum rather\nthan a steel frame along with a thinner profile, which will reduce the weight\nfrom 22oz on their standard models to only 12oz on their new version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we spoke to company reps at the NRA show last year, they had only a prototype model available to show us. But now they have a fully tested, production-ready sample, and it looks sweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eminently concealable, the handgun is only 0.55 inches at\nits widest point. It weighs less than almost any other concealed carry firearm,\nand its no-nonsense firing mechanism will work each and every time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Bond Arms handguns are chambered in .357 or .45 ACP, but company reps told us that the aluminum-framed model likely won\u2019t be available in anything hotter than 9mm. The gun\u2019s lightweight increases felt recoil, and larger calibers would be, quite literally, too hot to handle. Expect the 9mm model to be available first with a .380 following soon after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/sig-mpx-k-timney-trigger-shot-show-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"bond-arms-handguns-shot-show-2020\" title=\"Bond Arms Offering Thinner, Lighter, and Cheaper Versions of Its Popular Handguns \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\">SIG MPX K w\/ New Timney Trigger &amp; Threaded Barrel \u2013 SHOT Show 2020<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bond Arms began in 1995 with the idea that the Remington\nModel 95 over-under, single-action derringer could be converted from an Old\nWest anachronism into a modern and reliable handgun. This new aluminum model\nmight be the next evolution in that idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new release window is between May and June of this year, and MSRP will be right around $350.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

The Roughneck is constructed with the same high-quality components as other Bond Arms guns, but it isn\u2019t subjected to the usual polishing and hand-finishing process. Company reps told us they can make four Roughnecks for every one of their shinier guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As its name implies, the Roughneck isn\u2019t the kind of gun you\u2019ll\nbe hanging on the wall. This is a tackle box gun, as one employee told us, and\nit\u2019s made to be used and abused and keep on firing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Roughneck can be had for an MSRP of $269.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"741\" title=\"Bond Arms Offering Thinner, Lighter, and Cheaper Versions of Its Popular Handguns \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1-1024x741.jpg\" alt=\"Bond Arms Offering Thinner, Lighter, and Cheaper Versions of Its Popular Handguns \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1-1024x741.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1-400x289.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1-150x109.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1-768x556.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-2-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"546\" title=\"Bond Arms Offering Thinner, Lighter, and Cheaper Versions of Its Popular Handguns \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1-1024x546.jpg\" alt=\"Bond Arms Offering Thinner, Lighter, and Cheaper Versions of Its Popular Handguns \u2013 SHOT Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1-1024x546.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1-400x213.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1-150x80.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1-768x410.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/BA-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bondarms.com\/\" campaign=\"SHOTShow2020_Bond_Arms\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">HERE<\/a> to learn more about Bond Arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_SHOT2020\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!
