Bond Arms BA30THXL-45LC/410 30th XL 45 Colt (Long Colt)/410 Gauge 2 Shot 3" Engraved Matte Stainless Steel Barrel, Rough Matte Stainless Steel Frame, Black B6 Resin Grips
The Bond Arms 30th XL is a compact, dual-caliber derringer built for shooters who want serious stopping power in a deep-carry package. Chambered in .45 Colt (Long Colt) and .410 gauge, this single-action hand cannon gives you two rounds of potent defensive or hunting capability without the bulk of a conventional pistol. The 3" engraved barrel and rough-finished stainless steel frame deliver both durability and character—this isn't a gun that hides what it is.
The 30th XL improves on Bond Arms' earlier design by swapping panel grips for extended B6 resin grips, which provide a more secure and ergonomic hold. For a firearm this powerful and compact, that upgrade makes a real difference in shootability and control. The gun's balance, grip texturing, and single-action trigger (set at 7 pounds) work together to encourage deliberate, accurate shooting—exactly what you need when you've only got two shots.
This isn't a gun for everyone, but if you're looking for a backup, a deep-concealment option, or a uniquely American defensive tool with character, the 30th XL earns respect. The .45 Colt/.410 combo gives you flexibility: you can load .45 Colt rounds for precision or .410 shot for closer work. Whether you're a collector, a cowboy action shooter, or someone serious about off-grid preparedness, Bond Arms' reputation for hand-built quality shows in every detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch between .45 Colt and .410 ammunition?
Yes. The 30th XL is a dual-caliber derringer, so you can load either .45 Colt (Long Colt) rounds or .410 gauge shells. Swapping between them is straightforward—just load what suits your current need.
What are the extended B6 grips like?
The extended B6 resin grips provide a larger, more ergonomic purchase than panel-style grips. They're textured for a secure hold and are sized to fit the standard Bond Arms hand cannon frame. Black in color, they're built tough for regular carry and use.
Is this a good defensive or backup gun?
The 30th XL is commonly carried as a backup, deep-concealment, or off-body option. Its compact profile, dual-caliber versatility, and .45 Colt/.410 stopping power make it an unconventional but capable choice for those who understand its limitations and strengths. Always train with whatever defensive tool you choose.
