Bond Arms Stinger RS Rough Series .380 ACP Derringer, 3 in. Stainless, 2-Round
The Bond Arms Stinger RS in .380 ACP is a recent Rough Series micro derringer built with stainless steel throughout and a practical matte finish with brushed barrel flats. This over/under, two-shot design uses 3-inch stainless barrels and a single-action only, tip-up mechanism with a right-side hinge release. It includes the core Bond Arms safety set and fixed sights, and it was made in the USA.
This specific Stinger RS stands out for its compact size, all-stainless construction, and clear factory markings, including “STINGER RS,” “Push For Safe/Fire,” and “Bond Arms Granbury, Texas.” The pistol comes with the factory box, owner’s manual, and a spare set of grips, making it a straightforward package for a buyer who wants a complete, ready-to-use setup.
The Rough Series finish gives the exterior a matte, work-ready look while maintaining the durability of stainless steel. The exposed spurred hammer provides positive cocking, and the cross-bolt safety, rebounding hammer, and retracting firing pins add layered mechanical safeguards. Fixed sights with an integral front blade and a rear notch keep the sight picture simple and consistent.
Operation is direct: the right-side hinge release tips the barrels for loading and unloading, and the two barrels fire sequentially. Textured black polymer grip panels with a molded star motif offer a solid hold in a very compact footprint. With a 2-round capacity and .380 ACP chambering, the Stinger RS delivers Bond Arms’ derringer design in a micro package.

The Stinger RS is a micro-size, single-action only tip-up derringer with 3-inch stainless, over/under barrels and a 2-round capacity. Its stainless frame and receiver wear a uniform matte stainless finish, complemented by brushed flats on the barrels for subtle contrast. The design reflects Bond Arms’ Granbury, Texas production with clear, legible rollmarks.
Sights are fixed: an integral front blade and a fixed rear notch. The exposed spurred hammer supports deliberate single-action operation. Safety features include a cross-bolt safety, a rebounding hammer, and retracting firing pins.
The right-side hinge barrel release simplifies loading and unloading, and the two barrels fire sequentially. The black textured polymer grip panels, styled with a molded star motif, provide purchase while keeping the overall footprint minimal.
