Owners of the Bond Arms XLV tend to keep it as a backup or close-quarters option, and the dual-caliber capability is a recurring point of appreciation. The ability to run .410 Bore shotshells or .45 Colt gives it flexibility that most single-caliber derringers lack.

The XLV stainless construction draws praise for durability, particularly from those who carry in humid or outdoor conditions. The 4.25-inch barrel sits longer than Bond Arms shorter-barreled options, which owners generally find improves the sight radius slightly.

Trigger pull tends to divide users. The pull on Bond Arms derringers is heavy, and some shooters find it difficult to keep consistent under stress. Those who accept it as a specialty tool rate it well; those expecting a target pistol experience do not.
