The Bond Arms Papa Bear delivers dual-caliber versatility in a compact derringer platform, chambered for both .45 Colt and .410 gauge shotshells. This stainless steel double-barrel firearm provides reliable backup firepower with the flexibility to handle multiple ammunition types from a single platform.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional single-caliber derringers, the Papa Bear accommodates both .45 Colt cartridges and .410 gauge shells through its 3-inch barrels. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion better than blued alternatives while maintaining structural integrity under repeated firing. Auto-extractors eliminate the need for manual case removal, reducing reload time compared to standard derringer designs.

Key Features

  • Dual caliber capability: .45 Colt and .410 gauge compatibility
  • 3-inch stainless steel barrels with matching stainless frame construction
  • Automatic extractors for faster reloading and case removal
  • Rebounding hammer system enhances drop safety
  • Extended rubber grip provides improved control and recoil management
  • Manual safety with positive engagement for secure carry
  • Blade front sight paired with fixed rear sight for quick target acquisition
The Papa Bear excels in close-range defensive scenarios where quick deployment matters most. The .410 gauge option provides spread patterns effective for snake loads or personal defense, while .45 Colt delivers stopping power against larger threats. Weather-resistant stainless steel construction maintains function in humid conditions where carbon steel firearms might corrode.
