Best luck in recovery of your gun. You could certainly ask a lawyer to help you, and write to an elected official. Might work, but I doubt it. As an example of how the government agencies regard your property, 'Americas First Freedom' magazine showed us several photos of guns stolen, by federal employees, from citizens following Katrina. Nothing but rusty scrap metal after being held by government agents. My feeling is they couldn't care less about your firearm, and have no intention of ever returning it to you. Sad but true. Hope your case is resolved in a positive manner.
