You may be mistaken and confusing him for Bill Scwartz who was the barrel man and part owner of the Lefever Arms Gunsmithing operation in Lee Center, NY. That one never left that area of NY. He passed a couple years ago.
yessir, you are probably right. I do know that I read Schwarz/Ellijay won a gold medal in a competition for fine guns with a Lefever he restored, per Shotgun Life. I believe that story may have led me down the wrong path. In any case Schwarz in Ellijay GA is a heck of a gunsmith.
