Bond Arms Texan with a 6" O/U barrel

Thought some folk might be interested in looking at a couple of derringer barrel photos.

I've posted some range reports on our Forum, when I've taken out my Bond Arms Snake Slayer IV derringer. Since I've purchased additional barrels from Bond Arms, I'm now on their marketing e-mail list.

Got an interesting email this weekend advertising a BA barrel sale. It also had a surprise about a new barrel configuration they have made available for all their derringer models. Earlier this year they launched a new derringer called the "Texan." It has a 6" barrel in .45LC/.410 calibers. Prior to this gun, the longest barrel they made was a 4.5" length, which is what I have in my .357 Magnum/.38 Special barrel. Here is a picture of the new Texan derringer:

So BA has now decided to offer the 6" barrel to fit all their derringers. I think it's quite spendy, but I bet it will be a good sell for the company. Here is a web page picture of this new barrel.

BTW, I'll not be getting this one....outside my current budget, for sure! ;)

Neat setup. That's in the same ball park for price as a brand new barrel for my Contender. Probably reasonable since you have two barrels on that one.
