We had a customer who had the exact same scenario as you. Taurus ended sending us their only Mass compliant gun, a 9mm G3-C to replace the .22LR pistol that was not compliant. Perhaps you should ask Taurus if they will take back your broken .22 and send your dealer a G3-C. At least then you get something.Yea, I figured I am screwed. I suggested the manufacturer just destroy my gun and put my serial number on the replacement - They WON'T was his answer. What's interesting to me is they sent my gun back to ME 3 times no problem but they refuse to send a replacement to me OR to my FFL even though I told them it is 100% legal. They don't give a crap.
Len-2A has a good solution but I doubt if the AG would actually do that (I could be wrong and I'll pursue that).
LuvDog, you are probably right but the purpose of my question here was hoping there was something in writing. I've wasted a few months dealing on this nonsense with idiots at the other end. 3 times they tried to fix the problem and they can't!
I asked the manufacturer if the warranty goes with the gun. So I could sell it (to a friend for a buck), have him get a replacement and sell it back to me (for a buck). The answer - NOPE, If I sell the gun no more warranty.
Now, the reason I haven't disclosed the gun and manufacturer was because I didn't want a bunch of comments going off topic about the company etc. I wanted to merely stay on track to see if I could get some solution for my issue. The thread went off topic anyway focusing on FFL issues etc.
I apologize for any negativity you derived from me. That was not my intention.
The company is Taurus. The absolute worst idiots I have ever dealt with. The gun is the Taurus TX22. It's a great gun and I have friends who have great shooters - ME, nope.
I'll keep watching the thread in case someone weighs in with a solution.
Happy New Year to you all, stay safe and thanks for all your input,
