We saw the Bond Arms \u201cRough Series\u201d double-barrel handguns at SHOT Show 2020<\/a> and we figured they were worth a second mention because we like the concept.  Basically, it\u2019s the same tough, reliable Bond Arms derringer that one would normally purchase but at a significantly reduced price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compare $550ish MSRP for a standard production Bond Arms pistol to a $260-$300 MSRP for a Rough Series model. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cost-savings comes as a result of the finishing process.  Normally, the Texas-based company invests a lot of man-hours to make their guns look polished and shiny.  With the \u201cRough Series,\u201d as the name implies, the guns undergo a much quicker clean up process. After being deburred (to knock off sharp edges), the guns are briefly bead blasted which gives them their signature rough look.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bond Arms doesn\u2019t skimp on the features or materials in the rough series.  Purchasers get the same stainless-steel barrels and frames, cross-bolt safety, retracting firing pins, spring-loaded cam-lock lever and rebounding hammer that come on the standard models. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
