Custom Bond Arms Grips – Faux Rattlesnake XL Extended, UV Printed ABS

Custom Bond Arms grips featuring a faux rattlesnake skin design UV-printed across ABS panels, built for Bond Arms XL extended-frame derringer owners who want a Western, outdoor, or snake-aesthetic build without paying for real exotic leather. The high-definition rattlesnake pattern reproduces the scale texture and color depth of genuine snake skin, sealed into the ABS panel surface so the design holds up under daily handling, range use, and outdoor carry. What Bond Arms models do these grips fit? These panels fit the Bond Arms XL extended-frame double-barrel derringers — specifically the Defender XL, Ranger XL, Century 2000 XL, Slayer XL, Patriot XL, and Rowdy XL configurations. They do not fit standard (non-XL) Bond Arms frames, and they do not fit Davis Arms, Cobra Arms, or Bond Arms clones from other manufacturers, those use different grip geometry and require dedicated panels. If you’re unsure whether your Bond Arms is an XL extended model, the extended-frame variants have a longer grip frame that accepts the larger XL panels. Why pick faux rattlesnake over real snake skin or plain panels? Real snake-skin grips run $80–150 per pair, require curing, and are sensitive to humidity, sunlight, and skin oils. Faux rattlesnake printed on ABS plastic delivers the same visual aesthetic at a fraction of the cost with none of the durability concerns. ABS is dimensionally stable across temperature and humidity, doesn’t crack or curl with age, and shrugs off solvents from routine cleaning (CLP, Hoppe’s, brake cleaner). The UV-cured printed image penetrates the top ABS layer rather than sitting as a decal, so the rattlesnake pattern won’t peel, fade in sunlight, or scratch off with handling. Common buyer questions Snake-skin grips suit Western collectors, outdoorsmen who carry the Bond Arms as a trail derringer, concealed carriers who want a distinctive aesthetic for their pocket pistol, and gift sets for shooters who already own the standard wood grip panels. The rattlesnake pattern pairs naturally with stainless and matte-finish Bond Arms frames and stands out against more traditional walnut or rosewood derringer grips. Construction details CNC-machined high-impact ABS with UV-cured rattlesnake artwork bonded into the panel face. The XL extended size accommodates the larger grip frame on Bond Arms XL configurations.
