Bond Arms extra barrels

[platnumbob]

Does anyone know if there is a Canadian retailer that can actually get (or has in stock) bond arms barrel conversions? I have a .357/38 variant and am thinking about a .410 option just for fun....since I cant buy any new handguns.

Google seems to show no stock from anyone on a quick review, but I may be missing something.

Prophet River used to sell them, I checked their website but nothing was listed. Try calling them.

Looks like just 10mm, 40s&w, 45acp & 45lc, no .410.

Wouldn’t 45lc be able to use for 410 also as I believe that was its design for these

Thanks all!!

I wish BA had a .22 bbl legal for Canada.

That would be awesome, but our market is probably too small (especially now) for them to make a 4.25" barrel.

the barrel rifling is different on the 45/410 from the straight 45 because the 410 is way longer chamber, (3") I have had them, kind of fun but the 410 is a stick it the belly type of thing, But a 9mm would be nice because of ammo price, never shot a 9 in one , liked the 38/357 as I did lots of reloading .

 

[keith mokry]

What about using 2 1/2” 410 in 45colt. Is this possible

 

[marshall]

I don't think so, what is the overall length of 45 colt? ,But I don't have these any more to measure. check, Wish I had not sold them all
Useless, but fun, really worked good on mice, but that was when I had lots of cheap 410 stuff kicking around.
At one time you could buy 45colt shot shells, but I would think that would be the same as shooting bird shot in a rifled 22 barrel, waste of time and money. You could ream one barrel to shot shell length, not that I would do that myself.

All the ones in Canada where 4.25 inch that I had, most US ones are 3 in
the 410/45 barrels where 80% chamber, the rifling in them was only about 1 in long, so did not do much of anything, from what I could tell.
But they where made to shoot carjackers in the US at about 2 ft range. Hornaday made special ammo for the purpose. Up here we use a stick or just scream and say thank you.
If you really want to get into this big time, There is a 45/70 one, But I have a limit to overkill at my age .

I wish we could get the 22lr barrel for Bond Arms, shooting 9mm or 45 colt in that is not arms friendly.

I never shot 9mm with mine nor 45 Colt, but the .38 was great to shoot. Not a precise gun to shoot, but fun.

I've never tried the newer model with the improved trigger pull, I had the original and found it kind of a novelty gun, even if I lived in a free country and could carry it for protection, I would probably go for a compact semi auto 9mm of similar size and less weight.

Yep, it's just a fun pistol and we are all wanted a Derringer at one point of our life. I would prefer my Glock 48 with 10 rounds magazine for carry around or 19x.

What surprised me a bit is how big these actually are in the hand.... way bigger then the toy derringers I used to pack as a kid,,,,,

I don't know about now, but at one time you could get a 22rf barrel, but at the same time you could buy a NAA mini revolver in 22lr,22mag for about the same price, but those where12-6 of course.

There were Canadian versions of the NAA Mini Master and they weren’t hard to get. I even have a few holsters for mine.

Yes ,but they just look wrong to me with all that extra barrel sticking out
I had a few , the black widow one was great, but someone really wanted it while back.
It was a larger grip, and target sights ( kind of over kill) with a vent rib, 22Mag/22 lr .2in if I remember.

BTW Freedom Arms made one as well, but it did not seem as well made as the NAA ones,
The FA one would be much more of a collectable as not many where made and just the one size I think.

Another PS, The 4 1/4" ones where really made for the California market, We really don't rate as far as sales goes.
Cal. is just as screwed up as we are on regulations and BS laws.
