Del Rio Pete 72 Posted January 10, 2017 Bond is about to launch a brand new derringer with a 6" barrel!!!! They are having a contest to name it. If your suggested name is used, they'll give you a free 6" gun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dorado 395 Posted January 10, 2017 Whiskey Hayes, That is a beautiful gun. Bond is about to launch a brand new derringer with a 6" barrel!!!!They are having a contest to name it.If your suggested name is used, they'll give you a free 6" gun. Hmmm....Maybe they were reading my thread here and decided to help me out.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del Rio Pete 72 Posted January 10, 2017 Dorado, Win the naming contest & get the 6" gun. Then, all you'll need to do is buy the shorter barrel for SASS. Maybe they'll let you use their 50% off for a second barrel. Hope you win. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they'll let you use their 50% off for a second barrel. Hope you win. They have over 4,000 entries. I'm one of them. I may try to get in another name too. I'm trying to think of a good one. Only one I could think of was "Otso" a Mythical Bear called the King of the Forest. Figured that'd be fitting considering the size of the dang thing.

Dorado 395 Posted January 11, 2017 Talked to a friend about these. He has one that he may let me have at a good price. I don't know what it is just yet but it may be a good deal. I've bought guns off him before, he never asks a lot for them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston CAS 39 Posted January 12, 2017 What barrel length do most SASS shooters use on a Bond? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dorado 395 Posted January 12, 2017 Most of what I've seen has been about 3". I doubt that having a 4" would make much of a difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston CAS 39 Posted January 12, 2017 I was actually looking at the 2.5" mini. Looks closer in size to the American Derringer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mud Marine,SASS#54686 Life 747 Posted January 12, 2017 I try to shoot every side match, especially Long Range Buffalo rifle, Lever pistol and Lever rifle, Long Range pistol, pocket pistol and deringer plus Quigley bucket match. I guess I don't understand why any nice deringer would languish in a unused in a gun safe. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
