Bond Arms Stubby B6 9mm Derringer with Extended Grip

Bond Arms Stubby B6: Compact Power Meets Practical Handling

Bond Arms has engineered a modern take on the classic derringer with the 2025 Stubby B6. This single-action pistol represents a thoughtful balance between genuine concealability and shootable ergonomics—a combination that appeals equally to experienced defensive shooters and those seeking a reliable backup firearm.

Design and Construction

The Stubby B6 employs Bond Arms' proven Stinger RS frame in stainless steel, paired with their hand-fitted B6 resin grips in extended configuration. This grip choice distinguishes the B6 from other compact derringers by providing measurably better control and manageability without sacrificing the firearm's pocket-friendly dimensions.

The rough finish on the stainless steel frame provides excellent grip texture and resists glare—practical considerations for a defensive tool.

Practical Considerations

The 9mm chambering offers modern ballistic performance in a true pocket pistol. The 2-round capacity reflects the derringer's historical design while the extended grip improves shot placement—a worthwhile trade-off for serious users. Fixed sights are robust and require no adjustment, contributing to the firearm's reliability.

This is a purpose-built defensive tool for those who understand derringer operation and accept its limitations as the price of genuine concealability.
