Looked at a youth model 20 gauge Charles Daly pump at Walmart for a good price and want to know if anyone here has owned or shot the pump shotgun by Daly and what is your opinion of it and what was good or bad about it.Thanks Alot! Mike

I think you should spend a little more and get a 870, or a Nova. If for no other reason than resale value. I have never owned a Daly but I hunt doves ever year with a guy that has one for himself and his 2 boys. I have never heard them complain and they kill a lot of doves.

I had the tactical pump model and liked it better than the 870. That was mainly because the Daly is very light and sometimes I had to carry mine around most of the day. The receiver is made of aluminum, and some people don't like that, but I never had a problem.

Thanks to those who replied to me on the Charles Daly.I just bought a Remington 870 Wingmaster new in 20 gauge and my 7 year old son has a hard time holding it up for the weight of it and mainly the stock is just to long for him.That is why I am strongly thinking of getting the Daly youth model pump for him in 20 gauge for squirrel hunting with synthetic stock and it only weighs 5 pounds with a lifetime warranty also for 211.00 dollars.With the synthetic stock scratches wont be a problem as he learns to handle a gun.Once again thanks to all who answered as I appreciate it. Thanks,Mike
