I sent out a Pre 64 Model 70 Featherweight for work to another state. I was patient, did not want to become a pest but after a while I just had to check up on the progress. Called the shop, no answer, no answering machine, contacted a friend in ATF and asked if he could have a local agent check on this shop, not just for my gun but to make sure this shop didn't just close up. My ATF contact tod me they just couldn't pop in and check on this guy, WOW! I next called the local sheriff and after a couple days of becoming a pest the Sheriff advised me the shop owner was in a nursing home. I managed to contact his sister and convinced her to look in his shop for my gun, I got the gun back shortly thereafter. As far as Larry DelGrego goes, I have been in his shop a few times and I hold him in high regards and wish him nothing but good health, and his family the very best.
