Bills shotguns are real enough for sure. I've known him for a couple decades and if he tells me water is wet, I believe him. He probably has told me something that was not correct but for the life of me I can't recall it if it ever happened. If he tells you he has gun x you might as well figure gun x is off the market for now. Good thing is that he does sell his toys from time to time and his prices seem to be reasonable unlike some I know who think their guns are the best, most valuable guns on Earth. Bill knows a five K gun is a five K gun.
