I guess I should say, "Out of Business". Looks like they closed up shop on Fri.

Too bad. I thought they offered some pretty nice guns for a decent price. Especially entry level shotguns for people on a budget.

Yeah, I've always known that if I needed a cheap, quality shotty to grab a Charles Daly. I've always wanted to check one out. I'm sure they'll still be on the market for a while.

Always been some what of a pain to get parts for....now it will be a real pain. Or maybe some crafty person out there will fabricate after market parts for these guns and make a killing.

CDNN is running a sale, I think..

Thank you for the heads up, but I've potentially got a much more important purchase coming up soon.

I had the pump action...was a great gun. I could regularly catch a pair of clay pigeons with 2 shots out of the 18" barrel. Sold it to another member on here in December to pay for my car's fuel pump...

I think they're very good prices...even after shipping and transfer fees.

I always thought Daly shotguns were a true bargain. Good quality, especially for the price they were asking.

I'm sorry to see them go under. It is kind of surprising though considering all the demand the Obama administration created for firearms of all types, particularly those with a more affordable pricetag.

So it was KBI that was going to import the Tavor (http://www.israel-weapon.com/?catid=%7BBE33B6E6-080B-45B8-AD85-C4E1E40D0422%7D) ... I assume this means that's not gonna happen now. :(

Which one did you get and what was the price? The closest Big 5 to me is in Longmont and if the price is right I would rather drive and buy locally versus ordering online and waiting for shipping.


Black Field Tactical 12ga pump, for I think $270 out the door...

Do you happen to recall their price on the semi-auto version as pictured above for $369?

I just called the Longmont Big 5 and he said they don't carry that one. Walmart carries Charles Daly shotguns & we're going by anyway so I'll see if they carry the one I want although I'm not very optimistic.
