Do they send shills better gear or do shills lie?
This video addresses the common question of whether firearms manufacturers send 'shills' (influencers) better quality gear than what is available to the public. Ben Stoeger argues that this is generally not the case, citing personal experiences with Staccato pistols and Vortex red dots not exhibiting superior quality control. Instead, he posits that 'shills' often simply refrain from discussing product failures to maintain relationships with manufacturers, creating an illusion of perfection.
