Older Charles Daly o/u shotguns were mfg. by Miroku in Japan until the mid-70's, when Miroku began mfg. the Citori for Browning. These Charles Daly shotguns are one of the best bargains out there in a quality used o/u shotgun. They can be found for $500 to $700 for a good used 12 ga. with asking prices for higher grade guns in near new condition approaching $1,000. The later ones of Italian mfg. are more expensive, but are also solid guns. As for the Turkish Dalys, I have no experience with them.

Did sabatti make ou for Charles daly?
Sabatti made Charles Daly Superior II Hunter O/U According to the Service Department at Charles Daly / KBI, Sabatti made O/U's for them in the late 90's to 2005. One of the model lines they made for them was the Superior O/U's including the Superior II Hunter O/U. Some of the older articles I have read and people I've contacted that own this line of Charles Daly's believe they are as good as or better than the Japanese made Miroku Charles Daly shotguns of the 60's and 70's. Sabatti may have also manufactured their Empire line of O/U's, but I am not totally sure of that. Sabatti is one of the oldest, in continuous business as an arms manufacturer since 1674, and best Italian shotgun makers that currently manufactures Remington's Premier O/U shotguns and the Browning Medalist. I have read articles and reviews from European sources that state that Sabatti's own line of shotguns are as good as or better than Beretta and Browning. They also do custom work for some of the best shotgun manufacturers in the world including Perazzi. Hope this helps, Dennis
Are Charles Daly over under shotguns a good buy?
Charles Daly / Miroku over/under shotguns are very good shooters, if properly maintained. The V-Spring models are quicker/better over the coil spring models. However, the down side of the V-Spring models are the fact that the V-Springs, by there design are more prone to breaking, as they get older. The highest failure rate are the hammer springs, (where even if only one breaks, you are better served replacing them both), followed by the top lever spring. Always use wire cut, tempered springs, not springs that are simply bent into shape.
Who was Charles Daly?
Charles Daly was a hardwear store owner and was a partner with Shoverling and Gales. His partners figure his name would sound better on a gun than theirs so the Charles Daly gun was born. The store sold guns from many makers, Fox, L.C.Smith, Lefever, JP Sauer and many other German Gun Makers. Most of the Daly name guns were of top quaility. In the 1930 the Name was sold and many outfits have used the Daly name to push some good guns and some not so good guns. What it boils down to is Charles Daly was a part owner of a hardwear store and had the best name of the group to put on a gun. I have been collecting Pre-War Charles Daly's for many years andspecialize in the higher grade Charles Daly Diamond and Charles Daly Regent Diamond grades plus Drillings and special orders. Feel free to call me or email to discuss your specific gun. Oct 2012Paul Devers -Michigan419-450-2454 cellendever4us@aol.com

What is the value of a BC Miroku 12 gauge shotgun Sn 549996 or is this a Charles Daly Firearm?
I can't give you a clear answer if Miroku made the shotgun or not. However, may I offer a comment. Miroku has made shotguns for 150 years. From all I can gather, they are a high integrity organization and have made high quality guns for companies like Ithica, SKB,Weatherby,Charles Daly and Winchester. If you have a gun made by Miroku, I don't care what company has its name on it, you have a fine gun. Excellent design, fits and finishes. Durable and dependable. Sleek and good traditional looks. Good hunting.

The older Daly guns were made in Germany. In the sixties Miroku of Japan built Daly O/U's and SxS's,these are undervalued and good guns but not of the value of the German Daly's. The last batches have been built in Spain and Turkey with most haveing little value compared to their new price.
