has  anyone  had any experience  with  them??   or  know  anything about them?    the price  is real good.... cheap enough  to put together  a 4 gun set...12 20   28  and  410     i  was  told they  are very similar to  Charles Daley

Nope can't say that I know anything specfic about them. To say it's similar to a Charles Daly is nearly meaningless unless you say what generation of Charles Daly. Do you know who actually made the gun? That might help in figuring out if it's a decent value.

These days an awful lot of cheap O/Us are being imported from all over the globe and not all of them are turning out to be worth even the cheap prices they are asking for them.

If they are made by the folks in Huglu who make the guns imported by CZ and DeHaan they should be really nice guns. Huglu really isn't so much a company even tho we generally refer to it as such but rather a town in Turkey I believe and they have a number of talented gun makers there in a kinda loose knit organization not exactly a company I believe. That of course is not the only gun making region in Turkey and might not be where yours comes from but in general Turkish made guns are well made and nicely finished but often lack some of the refinements like auto ejectors and such that many seem to prefer.

I just lucked into one in 20 ga. Since last year, I had planned to buy a CZ O/U before bird season opened. Then I found out that my wife's boss had bought a bunch of Savage/Stevens guns from a factory rep. He had a 20 ga. Stevens that really felt good and pointed great for me. I couldn't resist at a price of $400 NIB. So far I have had it on a couple of dove shoots and it has been flawless. I like the selective trigger and since I reload, I like the extractors.

The only thing I really don't care for is cosmetic. The pheasant inlay sticks up too much.
