Default Firearms insurance from fire or theft

I have attempted to contact Laura Sewall with Eastern insurance multiple times with no reply. What insurance companies do you recommend?
Thanks

Try the thread above. It has pertinent information.

Oh by the way I contacted Hanover insurance company who is suposed to be the insurance cover for eastern insurance and the young lady who answered the phone said they don't cover firearm insurance. I gave them my policy number and she said that number has nothing to do with us.
It left me with a not so good feeling.

Ken, I'd sure recommend leaving Eastern. Gun and Trophy, as already recommended, has been responsive (and cheaper!) for me. I haven't had to use the coverage, but if their responsiveness is any indicator, they should be excellent.

Show us some paper that shows that Hanover has anything to do with Eastern. If you can show us that paper, then Eastern is lying to you. Ken, get back to us and tell us whether the "young lady" is not telling the truth.

I cancelled with Eastern after Jack passed away due to a lack of any sense of urgency of Eastern’s part.
Went with Gun and Trophy. 100% professional.

Bill will this work?

Bill I am away from home right now and will post a copy of the Hanover/Eastern connection.
I talked with Larry at gun and trophy about my concern about Hanover stating that they don't insure guns, he stated that he was not surprised at the response I got as the young lady probably was unaware of that part of the company.
