charles daly 12 gauge autoloader

bkd · May 8, 2002, 03:42 PM

Hey all im new to this forum but im getting ready to buy a charles daly 12 gauge autoloader and need to know how the gun ejects shells. If any have shot this shotgun could you please tell me where the empty shotshell goes because im left handed and need it to eject away from my face not directly backward, does it go out at a 90 degree angle frm the chamber or close to that? any help will be greatly appreciated thanks

I've got one and been using it for trap...the shells eject pretty much at a 90 degree angle, but before I commit to that I'll look again when we go shooting Monday. I wouldn't want them flying by my nose.... Let you know. But if you keep your cheek on the stock when you shoot it shouldn't be a problem, I wouldn't think. But then, I'm right handed.... Its a great gun. Check their website for the warranty... I've had no problems with it from the start.

on mine is to the right about 5' and forward about 3' - 4 '. You should be fine. No warranty express or implied on the advice though.
