Title: New Addition
Post by: yankee2500 on April 17, 2010, 07:09:49 PM

I got a good deal on a Bond Arms Snake Slayer,(45LC /410) so I bought it , I took a couple of shots today but not at a target, just wanted to see the recoil. (not bad at all)  The holster has Python skin inlaid in to it.

Really nice, John.  I've thought about one of these often, just never pursued it.

Actually, the one I have been looking at is the Texas Defender, which is smaller:

And this is the one I want!    :)

Very fine combination, John.

[Note to self: Do not, repeat not, sit down at a poker table with John until he puts that Bond where I can see it.  ;) ]

Which has the worst recoil the 410 or the 45LC?? I've always been curious about one of these.

Can't speak for the Bond, but for the Taurus Judge, the .410 kicks the hardest,   Now, I would think that would hold true for the derringer.  Just my thoughts.

kj is correct, the 410 has more kick, I only fired a couple of each, but you could tell the difference.
