The Bond Arms Honey B delivers reliable backup firepower in an ultra-compact .38 Special platform designed for concealed carry and personal protection. This modern derringer combines traditional two-shot simplicity with contemporary materials and manufacturing precision.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional pocket pistols, the Honey B features a break-action design that allows for quick visual confirmation of loaded status and easy extraction of spent cases. The 3-inch barrel provides better velocity retention than snub-nose revolvers while maintaining a shorter overall length. Bond Arms' proprietary trigger guard and safety mechanisms exceed modern drop-test standards that many vintage derringers cannot meet.
Key Features
- Matte stainless steel frame resists corrosion and wear in harsh conditions
- Extended black B6 resin grips provide improved control and comfort
- Cross-bolt safety prevents accidental discharge during carry
- Rebounding hammer system eliminates risk of slam-fire incidents
- Spring-loaded ejector automatically lifts spent cases for quick reloading
- Compatible with Bond Arms interchangeable barrel system
- Accepts standard .38 Special ammunition including +P loads
Field testing demonstrates consistent ignition with various ammunition types, from standard wadcutters to defensive hollow points. The fixed sights regulate for 15-yard accuracy, making this suitable for close-quarters defensive scenarios. Stainless steel construction maintains function in humid environments and coastal conditions where blued steel would corrode.
