Nice rigs man. That thing on the end of the mossberg is god awful. Other than that I like them.

[Mr. T]

That's a sweet looking tool. I also have a Mossberg that's been tricked out like yours as well. Does your Charles Daly have a poly-choke on the end of it?
If it did, I'd buy one on the spot. Have you shot this yet and what do you think? How's it handle? For the price it looks like a steal!:)

[sarduy]

it's not a poly-choke, it's a breeching tube, the good thing is that i can add one ;) it shoots very good and accurate with slugs, i shot some buckshots 3'' 00 9 pellets at 25 yards and 8 hit the man-size target in the chest every time, it handles a little better than the mossberg, but maybe because is a little lighter too. i have shots 100 rounds with it, 30 of them slugs and a mix of birds shot and 00 buckshots, they all fire and extract without a single problem, and the price was right.

everything ive read has been good about those shotguns,good price.

I didn't know CD was going belly-up. When I saw this thread I nearly went to Buds with my credit card in hand. I have been looking at both the 590m and 870 for HD and haven't been able to make up my mind....possibly because they are both a lot more money than this CD. Is this still a good deal? Are there after market parts and accys for this shotty?

[oneounceload]

Parts and repairs (even though lifetime) may not be available.

Remember, Daly is a marketing company and has been for over 170 years in one format or another. Even if someone new resurrects the name, they may not be able to do anything with these Turkish-made guns if they are using someone else
