Definitely a bummer. I know a fellow in similar circumstance that had to give his rifle up but the store that sold it to him made good with a replacement. You followed the rules , used a ffl and all so it will be hard to prove you knowingly did anything wrong.Besides they obviously know you purchased the gun from the guy or he wouldn't have given them your name. I would say worst case you will lose your gun. Best case the seller gives you the $ back. If it was covered by the original owners insurance you may inquire about buying the gun from the ins co. and get a decent price.
