In the AZ oven (Phoenix basin)
Bond Arms (who have excellent Derringers) have a special edition out.
Nothing unusual there, right? Except they want over $1,400 for it!

Bond Arms are, at least to me, rather expensive, starting at just under
$500, with most in the $550 to $650 range, and a few at $700+.
All for a TWO SHOT pistol (yes, I have . . . . . . one).

They have a somewhat unique feature in that for the cost of a barrel,
(average about $180) you can change calibers. NICE! But I'm not overly
impressed with the four to six week wait for a new barrel.
BUT, you say, they are completely interchangeable. :roll:

I've been anxiously awaiting their Boberg replacement (announced about
eighteen months ago). Especially when it is anticipated to be multiple
hundred dollars LESS than Boberg was selling them for!! :shock:
AND they have fixed most of Arnie's unique problems! :shock:
Unfortunately, it looks like that one is still a year or more out.
And they claim 30K people on the waiting list! :shock: . :roll:

Oh well.
They MUST have a good product, or people would not pay that much.
 
I just got to try out the one I bought recently. I paid $399 for it (used but just barely) so with tax and some ammo it was around $450, came with the box and all paperwork and a nice Bond Arms holster even! The Snake Slayer model. Like you said, I bought it thinking I'd love to have a couple different calibers for it.

It is a great looking gun and the quality is top notch. I haven't really shot it enough yet to comment on how it shoots.
 
Have one like it very much. Would I pay that price tag no way lol. Beautiful little Derringer though.
