Bond Arms Snake Slayer .45 LC/.410 Derringer ‒ Satin Stainless, 3.5" Barrels, Engraved Rosewood Grips
The Bond Arms Snake Slayer mixes compact dimensions with serious versatility. Built in Texas from solid stainless steel, this two-shot derringer chambers both .45 Long Colt and 2.5" or 3" .410 bore shotshells. Factory-engraved rosewood grips featuring a coiled rattlesnake motif give it distinctive style, while the 3.5" barrels and extended grip panels provide better control than typical micro derringers.

Bond Arms machines the Snake Slayer from 17-4 PH stainless steel, giving it the strength to handle high-pressure loads and resist corrosion. The satin brushed finish matches the frame, barrels, and removable trigger guard for a cohesive look.
The modular design accepts all Bond Arms “Hand Cannon” accessory barrels, letting the owner swap calibers in minutes without tools. A top-mounted locking lever secures the break-open action, and a rebounding hammer works with the cross-bolt safety to add an extra margin of security.
Extended rosewood grips are laser-engraved with “SNAKE SLAYER • BOND ARMS” text and a detailed rattlesnake, creating a firm purchase and a distinctive appearance. Despite its micro size, the longer grip and 3.5" barrels help manage recoil from stout .45 LC or .410 defensive loads.
Fixed sights—a milled rear notch and integral front blade—keep the profile snag-free while providing a clear sight picture at typical derringer distances. Every Snake Slayer is made in the USA and carries Bond Arms’ reputation for robust construction and straightforward reliability.
