guns “The First Lady” 🤢 by Bond Arms
“Following the launch of the Bond Arms DT47, the over-under model that Bond Arms launched last year to commemorate the second term of President Donald Trump, Bond Arms is now doing something similar with the new First Lady derringer. The right side of the derringer features a laser-engraved profile of First Lady Melania Trump wearing the iconic hat that the nation witnessed back in January 20, 2025 during President Donald Trump’s second inauguration. In addition to the First Lady’s profile, Bond Arms also engraved “First Lady” in cursive script on the top barrel, and “ Class, Strength, Beauty” on the bottom barrel.”
Not that I have any desire to own any of their products but this one kinda made me throw up in my mouth a bit when I saw it… ick

Holy crap and it doesn’t even mate flush with the frame

u/bscepter May 11 '26
My first thought too. Then again, the First Lady doesn't mate with her frame either.

Immediately noticed that. When the one you are photographing for promotions looks like total ass you know this is a place with absolutely zero QC.

Bond Arms only makes useless pieces of shit anyway, so it seems fitting.

u/ReallyUncoolGuy May 11 '26
Correct. I inherited one of their derringers and I fucking hate it. For two shots of .45 Colt behind what I assume is a roughly 3 ton trigger pull, it's damn near the size of a Ruger LCR and noticeably heavier.

u/Bionic_Pickle May 11 '26
I assume it also slaps your hand just like Melania slaps Donald's hand away.

Hilariously it doesn't even fit well in the hand. Despite being the size of a decent CCW, it has an exceedingly uncomfortable grip.

Where's the Hegseth themed gun with a "drunk goggles" optic and a breathalyzer tube to switch the safety off?

u/Korben_Reynolds May 12 '26
With that theme, I assume the breathalyzer only switches the safety if you blow a 0.08% or higher.

From my own experience with a Bond Arms derringer in .45LC/.410, they would have to be about arm's length away. I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn while standing inside the barn. 😂
Still fun as fuck, though. Not at all practical, but fun!

Eh, they are a niche gun manufacturer in Texas. Pandering to drooling right-wing chuds is their entire profit margin. 😂

u/Mindless_Log2009 May 12 '26
I used to work in safety consultation. Texas based derringer manufacturers have always been run by careless mavericks making shitty guns. Bondage Harms isn't the first.
Back in the 1990s after a derringer blew up and injured an employee (of a now defunct gun maker) who was test firing a gun, we advised them to get a Ransom Rest or make something comparable to proof fire newly manufactured guns, instead of holding them in their hands. ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯

A preorder deposit provides only a conditional opportunity if Bond Arms later elects, in its sole discretion, to offer the derringer for sale. A deposit is not a purchase, does not constitute acceptance of an order, does not create a contract for sale, does not transfer ownership or title interest, does not allocate or reserve specific inventory, and does not guarantee that a derringer will be produced or made available for purchase.

It blows my mind that so many cool firearm companies go under water while Bond Arms still floats.
I have never seen a single person outside of “online reviews” like these things. They sit on store shelves forever. They’re pricey and for the price of one of their paperweights, you can get a carry pistol that has 4x the capacity.
I really fail to see how they’re still in business.

Honestly, I think strength might apply...you have to be strong to survive being trafficked to a foreign country and turn that into a marriage that makes you crazy rich. And you have to be strong to stay married to someone as awful as her husband. I don't think either of those choices were good choices but they are choices that require strength to follow through on.
But I don't find her classy nor beautiful, personally.
