Feedback on Charles Daly 1873?
« on: February 25, 2010, 06:29:40 AM »
Been window shopping for a single action revolver in 45LC. Sounds like the Beretta Stampede is a good bet as a modern incarnation. What about the Charles Daly 1873, how are they alike/different, quality? Interested, thanks.

You best hope it's a good one if you get it since CD recently folded yet again. There will be no warranty. I'm sure it's just another Italian made clone tho which outfit there made it I dunno. It's likely no better or worse than the average imported clone.

I picked up one from my father and had to do some work on it.  But all is well now.
Primers were dragging pretty bad

 
Did a little honing,

 
Works fine now,
