The Bond Arms Snake Slayer is known for its reliability, powerful performance, and versatility, making it a popular choice for personal protection and outdoor use.

The frame makes a nearly perfect 90-degree arch over the partially-lightening ported trigger. The trigger guard is a nice design touch. It has a flat forward face and then curves about 80 degrees to join the lower end of the aforementioned arch. And most interestingly, the trigger guard is removable.

Beyond the removable trigger guard, the Snake Slayer has a simple crossbolt safety to prevent the hammer from hitting the firing pins. It can even be locked into “on safe” or “off safe” positions using an Allen wrench. For drop safety, the hammer can’t move without the trigger being pulled.

Trigger pull is 7.25 pounds. The barrels fire in the either order as set by the user.

The grip has a beautiful rich rosewood with snakeskin checkering. Atop the wood on either side is not the Bond Arms logo, but a dedicated Snake Slayer logo featuring a striking venomous diamondback rattlesnake.

Bond Arms is based west of Fort Worth in of Granbury, Texas. The Bond Arms Snake Slayer is Made in USA.
