The Charles Daly Miroku shotguns were produced in the late 1970s and 1980s. Miroku, a Japanese manufacturer, made these shotguns under the Charles Daly brand, which is known for high-quality firearms. The specific years can vary depending on the model, but they generally fall within that timeframe.
Charles Daly's current line of shotguns are manufactured by K.B.I. in Turkey: http://www.charlesdaly.com/faq.asp In the past, Charles Daly has sold shotguns manufactured by Miroku of Japan. But current production shotguns are Turkish.
Depends on how old it is. Have it checked over by a good gunsmith
1976 is the last year for Miroku made Daly guns. From 1976 on the guns have been built in Spain,Italy and now Turkey.!976 is a year that you may find a Daly from Japan or Spain. Both good guns but I prefer the Miroku
Not unless it is a special order.
Miroku guns made under their name does not have serial info published. Winchester, Charles Daly and Browning have all been made by Miroku in the past. Do you have a model?
Miroku values vary widely based on what model and when the gun was produced. The Miroku factory has produced guns for Browning, Winchester, Remington, and Charles Daly to name a few. You need to give more specific information to get a better answer.
$900-$1000
In the Philippines. you can order any part of Charles Daly in the Philippines. because Charles Daly is manufactured by ARMS CORPORATION ( ARMSCOR ) Parts for every firearm that I've ever owned, including stocks, are usually carried in stock by the manufacturer. That would be the first place I would try, at least as long as the gun is still being manufactured, or recently discontinued. In the manual for the last Ruger long gun I bought, a list of parts and prices was included in the owner's manual. 100s of Original Miroku manufactured Charles Daly Wood Stocks & Forearms are available at: B&C Gunsmithing - bncgunsupplies@npgcable.com. There are over 10,000 Charles Daly / Miroku parts (all kinds) in stock. These have been out of manufacture for more than 40 years and when Sloan Sports quit the importation of these guns, their entire spare parts stock was sold to Garfield Guns of Garfield New Jersey. When Garfield Guns closed their doors several years ago, their entire stock of spare parts was sold to B&C Gunsmithing of Lake Havasu City AZ. Modern Charles Daly guns were manufactured in Turkey and imported by KBI Inc.. Charles Daly (KBI) and ARMSCOR do not have spare parts for Miroku manufactured Charles Daly guns. Update: KBI has closed its doors, leaving owners of the newest Charles Daly guns "high and dry". Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a good source for these parts...
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.
This question is impossible to answer without knowing the type of firearm and its condition. Several types of gun were made for Charles Daly by the Japanese. Take the gun to a gunsmith and have it identified as to model and condition before resubmitting this question.
The firm B.C. Miroku of Tokyo, Japan made the Charles Daly name of over and under shotguns from 1963 to 1976. Not a lot is known about this firearm, as retaining data apparently was not thought important when they were being sold. This shotgun has a value of around $700.
