Grittiness is often a given in the world. While plenty of highly finished and lustrous firearms exist, that grittiness has translated over to the firearms world. There will always be a place for the prettiest firearms with engraving and unique finishes, but that’s not the status quo anymore. No, instead, there’s a lot of firearms that are finished to an adequate and useful standard with the understanding that damage can happen.
Bond Arms has taken a different approach to the hardened use and frill-less manufacturing of firearms. The Rough Series is a line of pistols specifically made to save time and money. Coming in three different models (Grizzly, Rowdy, Roughneck), each design has inherent benefits and upgrades while retaining the expectation of use without worrying about becoming distressed.
Each model has a rough-and-tumble finish. There isn’t excess time spent on high-end polishing and mirror finishes. Instead, the time taken to produce models that inspire poetry is rolled into savings for the consumer. Yet, a reduction of luminous surfaces doesn’t mean expense and quality suffers.
Construction is on par with all other models in the Bond Arms lineup. Both frames and barrels are made from quality, durable and reliable stainless steel. They come in varied barrel lengths, depending on calibers, and can be fitted with matching barrels of alternative calibers. Two-and-a-half and 3-inch barrels can be purchased separately, but the rough series also accommodates standard barrels from most other models.
These rugged and dependable firearms are for the budget-minded user. No sacrifices are made, and no scratch will be labored over. Both the Roughneck and Rowdy come with rubber grips, while the Grizzly features an extended rosewood grip. This rosewood grip allows complete hand placement, pinky and all.

BOND ARMS, INC. is located in Granbury, Texas, and manufactures the award-winning Bond Arms Derringer – the finest in double barrel protection. Originally organized under the name Texas Armory, the company became incorporated as Bond Arms in 1995 with the idea that the Remington Model 95 over-under, single-action derringer could be converted from an Old West anachronism into a modern & reliable handgun. The barrel and frame were redesigned to safely fire modern calibers & the entire handgun is constructed entirely from stainless steel. This makes for a pistol that’s both strong and durable.
