Bond Arms is now launching a special edition and limited release of a break-action, double-barreled derringer with a President Trump motif called the Bond Arms XLV (45). It’s probably not a coincidence that the new Bond Arms XLV (45) is chambered for the classic .45 ACP cartridge. Not only has it been a widely popular handgun round for over a century, but Donald Trump was also the 45th President of the United States of America. In addition to all the features customers already have come to expect on Bond Arms derringers, the new XLV (45) also incorporates the latest Bond Arms grip, the B6, for added comfort. 

Bond Arms, a 30-year-old Texas company, has created the XLV (45) as a tribute to our 45th president, reflecting his toughness and resilience. This powerful and tough handgun honors "The Living Legend" and his remarkable strength and resilience. With its unique flat-sided barrel featuring detailed lasering on the right side and a blank left side for personalization, the XLV (45) is a functional firearm and a customizable piece of history.
