RE: Charles Daly Field Hunter 20 Guage Question???

"Meet Charles Daly. His name first appeared on firearms around 1875 after he and partner August Shoverling began importing hardware, sporting goods and eventually firearms in New York City. Joined by Joseph Gales several years later, the company became knows as Shoverling, Daly & Gales, a name the company would retain for quite some time. As the company continued to grow and prosper they decided to brand their firearms with an easily recognizable and memorable name and chose Charles Daly. From that day forward Charles Daly's name would grace some of the finest firearms in the world.
Shoverling, Daly & Gales thrived through the late 19th and early 20th century while the Charles Daly name earned a reputation for excellence by importing great firearms from such companies as Schiller, Linder (perhaps some of the finest firearms ever made), later Heym and Sauer of Germany, J&W Tolley of England, Newman of Belgium and Lefever Arms of New York. Charles Daly passed away unexpectedly in 1899 but the company continued on under the partnership that by then included his son, Charles Howard Daly.
In 1919 the partnership sold the company. The new owners continued the tradition of importing fine firearms from around the world and marketing them under the Charles Daly name. Henry Modell, Sloan's Sporting Goods, and Outdoor Sports Headquarters, have all laid claim to the Charles Daly brand name at one time or another while continuing to import excellent quality firearms. Over the years Beretta, Bernadelli, Garbi, Miroku and many other well-known manufacturers have had their firearms imported and sold in the United States sporting the Charles Daly name.
Meet Charles Daly The Shooting Sports Specialist. The modern era of Charles Daly began in 1996 when K.B.I. Inc.'s president, Michael Kassnar acquired the brand. Kassnar and his family had been involved in importing firearms from around the globe for more than half a century and had actually been supplying Outdoor Sports Headquarters with Charles Daly products from 1976 to 1985.
In keeping with the Charles Daly tradition of selling custom crafted firearms, K.B.I. Inc., began importing Italian and Spanish over-and-under and side-by-side shotguns and marketing them under the Charles Daly name. The line expanded with the inclusion of Charles Daly 1911 pistols and took off with the addition of a line of semi-automatic and pump action shotguns.
Today Charles Daly, The Shooting Sports Specialist has become a marquee name in the firearms industry by providing one of the most in-depth product lines including our 306 side-by-side shotgun that providles popular features at a price hundreds of dollars less than the competition. Four different lines of Over & Under shotguns: Model 105, Model 106, UltraLight and the new camouflauge 3½" Maxi-Mags. Slug Pumps & Autos for the serious slug shooter at an unbeatable price. Our new line of Cowboy Long Guns and Revolvers will certainly get the attention of everybody from the active cowboy shooter to the replica collector. Our pistol line consists of our two 1911 models: The Field .45ACP 1911s and the Polymer Framed light-weight M-5.
Like the Charles Daly of old, Charles Daly, The Shooting Sports Specialist is a growing, fluid, innovative company that constantly adjusts to market dynamics. Charles Daly was one of the first to react to innovations in camouflage techniques and now offers a whole line of the revolutionary Advantage Timber HD, Realtree Hardwoods HD, Advantage Max-4 HD, the new All Purpose HD and the All Purpose Green HD on the entire line of Field Grade semi-auto and pump action shotguns including the 3½" chambered Maxi-Mag shotguns.
