Bond arms derringer caliber

[retrorichard]

So, I have a 2 shot bond arms derringer in .45LC/.410 and I am debating getting a new set of barrels for it.

I am torn between .357, .45acp, .44 special. Which barrel would you go for?

I am thinking .357 or .45acp for their power.

+1 for the .357 (Just my personal preference)

I really like those little Bond pistols they are well built. if available 357/45acp

Why get 45 acp when you have the power of 45 LC? I'd go with the 357/38 barrel. I've got 45, 357/38, and 22LR for plinking. I really like my Bond and can consistently hit a 6" circle from 30' with the 357 barrel shooting 38 specials.

I thought it was a double barrel I like a 45acp and also 357 but you are right 45 LC is as good or better than a ACP.

Man up, go .45/70. My vote goes to .45 LC or .357

Sounds like I am going to get two barrels of .357 to go with my derringer!

depending on your hand size, you might be interested in extended grips. Bond arms sells them for $100 IIRC.

OBTW, here is some eye candy in 357 magnum with a 3 finger grip (there are larger grips)
