Wow, I'm amazed at the response from many of you out there. Parker Brothers Makers is in Ohio, not Connecticut. Many of you have suggested calling the owner. He will not talk to me. I called the local police, who indicated they have had a number of complaints about this company. When I asked the detective assigned to complaints for the company to pay them a visit, he said he wouldn't as he gets nowhere with them. He also said the Prosecuting Attorney's office won't do anything. So, I have sent a request to the AFT to look into this for me. Just so you know, they had all the parts ready for bluing, etc back in July of 2012. Don't think it would take a year and a half to blue up those pieces and make a stock. Said just last week that they got the barrels too thin trying to remove bore pits and that is why he is offering the other gun. Don't want another gun, just want mine. Also, they do advertise on the internet and make very fancy looking PB shotguns, but I'll never buy anything from them. Thanks to all of you for your comments. Mark

Ohio with a Connecticut phone number? Wow, these guys are over the top. I have had parts held hostage for bluing for more than two years, but that was in Easton, Maryland, not Ohio or Connecticut. Go after these guys.

Mark - Also try your local state or county attorney via your lawyer. They can forward it to Ohio for action. That may force the Ohio Prosecuting Attorney to take action. Billy

I agree it is probably most rewarding to get the ATF involved. To all the other agencies, it is just a theft of a few grand....they are not likely to get too worked up over it, especially since you are not a taxpayer in their state nor do you vote in their state.
