I live on Hawaii Island, and about a month ago one of my friends was attacked by a shark while paddling his one man canoe. The shark bit the canoe and he got a nasty gash on one leg. After that I purchased a bang stick to carry in my canoe; photos are attached. This morning, in the same area, a woman was thrown from her kayak and bitten twice on the thigh. She was brought to shore on one of our canoe club's 6-man boats and helicoptered to the nearest hospital. I have been paddling 3 days a week for the past 18 years and never seen a shark, but I feel more secure with the bangstick in my boat.

My buddy and I both bought new bangsticks this year (my old one went down in a fight last year), and we've taken gators with both of them. Great product, as always!

3 of us each had successful hunts using the bangstick. What an awesome weapon! Talk about an up-close-and-personal encounter with your alligator. We all would definitely recommend this thrill for any hunter to experience!

Aloha, I got the opportunity to bless my new 38 Special / .357 Magnum AS003 on an ahi (Yellow Fin Tuna) this weekend. Excellent crafted product built to last. Looking forward to this ahi season. Mahalo Nui Loa (thank you very much) Bill’s Bangsticks for the extremely fast shipping.

We use a couple of your bang sticks on our charters and love them and now offer them for sale in our tackle shop. I attached the derby winning fish last season that my company caught, shot with one of your 44mag bangsticks.

Fishing for billfish can be very dangerous, and the danger level is multiplied when fishing off of a plastic kayak while seated only inches above the water. We’ve found that the best way to stop a wild thrashing marlin while on our Hobie TI kayak is with one pop from our .357 Mag Bill’s Bangstick. Both Pacific Blue Marlins (edited into one for TV purposes) shown on the Discovery Channel’s show Pacific Warriors were dispatched using our Bill’s Bangstick.

Bill’s Bangsticks are best bang for your buck!

I have used your 357 ultralite powerhead for years and it has worked exceptionally well. Attached is a picture of a Barracuda that I took with the powerhead.

Without the use of Bill's 44 cal bangstick, I wouldn't have been able to land this 188 yellowfin tuna solo after a long fight- the bangstick stopped 'em right in its tracks and made for easy gaffing and landing, which is a plus on my 13' Boston Whaler. Mahalo Bill for making a great product!!!

Bill Redcliff is not only an exceptionally talented machinist, he is also very knowledgeable in the use and creation of bang sticks. He is always a phone call away, and answers emails promptly. I purchased the .357 magnum bang stick from him and could not be any more pleased with it! The fine attention to detail, the sturdiness, the ease of use, what more can you ask for. Oh, and his pricing is lower than the (inferior) competition. I will not get into the water without my bang stick slung on my board shorts.

As an avid Big Game saltwater fisherman, Bill's Bangsticks have provided me with the level of safety needed to effectively control the fish such as: Pacific Blue Marlin, Sharks and Tunas. These bang sticks perform extremely well in saltwater fishing and are designed with safety in mind. The craftsmanship and detail of these bangsticks make Bill's Bangsticks the "best bang for the buck"!

Since I am a machinist, I know excellent machine work when I see it...very well made.



I bought the bangstick just to stop too big of a fish from wrecking my boat. Long story short, since I bought it, it scared all the big ones away, but it has sat on my boat out in the sea air for at least three, maybe four years, and not one speck of rust on it anywhere. If you ask me, that's some good quality stuff right there. I got the 357 model and very pleased with it so far. THANK YOU VERY MUCH for making me and my wife feel a little safer out on the ocean :).

I purchased a 7.62x39 powerhead from you the other day. I took it spearfishing over the weekend and it functioned flawlessly on 50lb plus amberjack 100% of the time. I’m very pleased with it!
