Does anyone own one of the Bond Arms guns?? Thinking about buying a .357 3" for my pocket gun but would like some feedback from actual owners and not internet Experts

No experience with them.. But I have heard good things.. I bet that little joker in a 357 would be a handful to shoot.. The only thing that would concern me is that they are Single Action and no trigger guard..
Take a look at these by Double Tap.. They come in 9 and 45

I have friends with the 45 long colt /410 bond arms. They like it. Say they can't hit with the 45 long colt tho.

Like I said just like the .357 because I already load the rounds and something to just put in my Pocket. The one I looked at had a trigger guard on it. Felt pretty good too

I had one with .38/.357 barrel and .410 barrel. It bites petty good. It's also rather heavy for what I would consider for a pocket gun. I would consider something else that may be a little less heavy in the pocket and has more rounds.

I have the snake slayer and really like it. It is what it is......simple yet sturdy design........I just carry mine ont he boat and slaye snakes with it.
consider the barrels change out quickly and fit any grip, and you can add a trigger gaurd with any grip.......it's a cool design

Well how is the weight for pocket carry?? Seymore has a point. Can't be too heavy for that use

My pocket gun is a Ruger LCP. I have an extended magazine so it holds 7+1 then I bring the extra magazine so that is 14 rounds of 380. Plus there are so many after market options for it that you can't really go wrong, plus it's cheaper than that Bond Arms guns too.

I carry the LCP 380 as well, I have a wallet holster, like this one

I like it alot, it fits in my back pocket just like a wallet. If you carry a wallet in your back pocket, you are already used to carrying this gun in a holster like that. Plus if you get held up or robbed, the first thing the guy is gonna tell you is to give him your wallet, i'll give him mine barrel first

I have a sheild I like. I like the air weight hammer less revolvers although I don't have one. I like my bodyguard for its size but the trigger is terrible.
