Keep in mind that there is one circumstance you aren't covered for and that's government confiscation. I ran into this a couple of years ago with a VHE-20ga I bought on Gun Broker a couple of years ago from a dealer in Maine. Six months after I had the gun in hand the local police showed up at my door with a court order from Maine to take the gun because it was reported as stolen in Maine. It's a long story but the short version is; I lost the gun & the money I paid for it. My eastern policy wouldn't cover it due to the clause for government confiscation. It still hurts every time I think about it.

Well that's an odd one for sure Paul. If it makes you feel any better and it will not you would most likely have that same exclusion in any policy with any carrier, not just Eastern and there will not be a buy back provision on that one. Theft has been mentioned a couple of times here. Along that line Eastern does have an exclusion pertaining to "unattended vehicles" as do most carriers. Theft from an unlocked vehicle with no signs of forced entry, no coverage ! Keep those vehicles locked fellas.
I stated earlier that I was not picking on Travelers, same for Eastern. Both are good products and they all have their quirks. Just pointing a few things out.
