It would appear that even though Charles Daly is still a good value for the $$, however since they have been bought by KBI, their warrenty policy has changed. Changed for the worse.

I don't know about the pre-KBI, Charles Daly warrenty because I've haven't had to use it. But it would seem that KBI, is more concerned with trying to get out of repairing or replaceing their products, than actual trying to make it right with a paying customer.

I still like Charles Daly shotguns, they are a shooter for a low $$ shotgun. But their warrenty policy will probably keep me from purchasing another Charles Daly anything.
