Charles Daly 601 Field, Compact, 20 Gauge, 3″ Chamber, 22″ Vent Rib Barrel, Mossy Oak Camo Finish, 5 Rounds

Product Description

The Charles Daly 601 20 gauge compact shotgun delivers reliable semi-automatic performance in a manageable, lightweight platform. This 20 gauge is ideal for shooters who want less recoil without sacrificing stopping power for sporting and recreational use.

Additionally, the Charles Daly 601 Field Compact features a 22″ vent rib barrel that helps with sight picture and target acquisition. The 3″ chamber accepts standard and magnum loads, giving you flexibility in ammunition selection. Fiber optic front sight ensures quick target pickup in varied light conditions.

Ergonomic Design for All Shooters

Furthermore, the compact frame makes this shotgun accessible to younger shooters, smaller-framed hunters, and anyone preferring a lighter recoil profile. The synthetic stock withstands harsh field conditions without wear or weather damage. The Mossy Oak camo finish blends seamlessly in natural settings.

Capacity and Choke Flexibility

The Charles Daly 601 holds 5 rounds, providing adequate capacity for upland game and clay shooting. Three choke tubes—IC (Improved Cylinder), M (Modified), and F (Full)—allow you to pattern the gun for your specific hunting or sport scenario. This versatility means one gun performs multiple roles.

Semi-Automatic Reliability

Moreover, semi-automatic operation cycles reliably across different load types, reducing manual effort between shots. The gas-operated system minimizes felt recoil, making follow-up shots faster and more accurate. This shotgun is built for extended shooting sessions without fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the 20 gauge good for compared to 12 gauge?

A: The 20 gauge produces less recoil and is lighter, making it ideal for youth shooters, smaller-framed hunters, and anyone seeking comfort over extended shooting. You still get effective performance for upland game and clay shooting without the kick.

Q: Are the choke tubes easy to swap, and what do they do?

A: Yes, the three included choke tubes (IC, M, F) swap easily to adjust your shot pattern. A tighter choke (F) concentrates pellets for distance; a looser choke (IC) spreads them for closer targets—match the choke to your distance and game.

Q: What is the transfer process in Texas, and do you handle it?

A: Yes, Western Sport is a licensed FFL dealer and handles all Texas transfers. Call 817-393-4000 to place your order, complete the background check, and finalize your paperwork quickly and professionally.

Q: Is the Charles Daly 601 suitable for clay sports like trap or skeet?

A: Absolutely. The vent rib barrel, fiber optic sight, and interchangeable chokes make the Charles Daly 601 excellent for clay shooting. The 5-round capacity and semi-automatic action let you shoot fast rounds without manual operation between shots.
