So as this thread veers off topic to something to the effect of "Mike Orlen has done great work on MY guns, always has, had recently, and I don't think he's done any kind of disservice to ME!!"
...etc
Perhaps one of you guys who has such great and consistent success with Mike Orlen can pick up the phone and call him (and since he ALWAYS answers YOUR calls...) ask him to take a look at this thread and take action via calling Ken Hurst and making this little debacle right.
I'm sure that those of you who consider yourselves of strong moral character and of strong integrity would think that to be the right thing to do -- for your friend Mike Orlen that is, whether or not you think anything of Mr Hurst or his barrels...
Cheers Tinker

Foxhound, your post is in very poor taste. I am sure that my friend Mr. Hurst is fighting the battle to the best of his ability. It would be a bit of a crapshoot to drive to Massachusetts to have a meeting with the local sheriff's office and/or State's Attorney. Some of us on this site have had to do that to deal with gunsmiths in NC, FL, and NY. Some of us are also short a gun or two even after such trips. Bill Murphy

Yeah...it's very popular to suggest the old 'drive up there and kick his ass' solution, I'm sure because it sounds like something Clint Eastwood would do. But I wonder how many guys who drove 600 miles to show up on the guy's front door step found out he had just left for a 2 week Aruban vacation.

Poor taste? First you insult, then say you were only kidding, then take the same arrogant attack to another thread? Now who is sticking up for a bud???? Mr. Murphy, not that someone as knowledgable or fine and upstanding and the obvious and ultimate taste and character meister around here can't have an opinion, but at least stick to it. Shouldn't be ashamed to attack the proletariat, should we now, ater all? And by the way, my comments should in no way be insinuated as an attack on Mr. Hurst, who obviously is a man of character and many people speak highly of. Unlike all of us that don't have or had 400 guns, huh Murph? Ps. My apology no longer valid. Enjoy your opinions, and I'll enjoy the guns I can afford however I see fit. And who the heck suggested violence Greg?

Ken is being treated like a rented Mule. Only a complete headinkeister would spend a second defending that. Every shotgun bulletin board in the world has post after post regailing the virtues of the man's shop, and he won't answer the phone? What's wrong with the picture fella's? Send a registered letter, return receipt. Then get a local attorney to follow the process to get the barrels back. Better than to lose all. The list is long of people and places involving firearms that went south. Get the barrels back. Start over. I just was reading a SSM 1996 article about Andy W., I'll bet some of you wish you had got your barrels back from him too.
Out there doing it best I can.

Clapper, thanks for the support. There is no reason for a person with a problem like this to "fight his own battles" when he has friends who can assist.

Ken:
So glad you got the barrels back, everytime I would get on Doublegun I would think of you and wonder if you heard from Mike. I hope this brings this thread to an end, but there will always be questions in the minds of the pro and con Mike people from now on. Best of luck with the barrels.

No such luck, Abner. Happy for Mr. Ken but LarryGuy's problem is still pending for those with a strong compulsion to intercede.
