brad_pro Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 ok nova king i have one more question before i buy her a shotgun because we were at my local gun shop and he had a cynergy micro 20 gauge that weighed very little and fit her great but i dont know about how it would kick because there is no release of the gas but every over under i have shot doesent seem to (kick) even the lighter ones (which were still about 7lbs vs this 6lb cynergy) so why is it that they dont kick much and is it a good idea to get her an over under and what is a decent over under for preferabley no more then 1100$ i would like one of the stoeger condors but havent heard much about them are they anygood or do u get what u pay for?

splashtx556ftw Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 this is strickley my opinion, but go with Cynergy. as for recoil, some people just arent affected by it as much others.i can shoot a 7mm mag all day. i have friends that wont shoot it but 3 or 4 times. good choice on the Cynergy.did you see any Citoris?

Novaking Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 If you can afford a cynergy, BUY A CYNERGY!!!! They are worth the money. If you have $1100. dollars to spend you should easily be able to find her a shotgun that fits. You do get what you pay for. That doesn't mean the more $ is the best way to go. Find what fits and will work the best for her. Novaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashtx556ftw Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 not to piss anyone off but i think i would buy a Browning over a Benelli any day, if i were going to buy an expensive shotgun.ive had one of the old Belgian A-5, man that thing wieghed a ton. all steel, no aluminum there. i was looking at a Cynergy grade 6 "$4134.00" on gunbroker,[ pardon me while i wipe the drool off my chin ] and it looks just like a Mossberg silver reserve "$600.00". check em out. the only difference i can see is the forestock.

brad_pro Posted September 3, 2008 Author Share Posted September 3, 2008 thank you both very much i just traded my 1400 for a 12 gauge daly and at first it kicked alot it bruised my shoulder but i put a limb saver on it and that did away with alot of the "kick" now it doesent hurt so i think i will go with a youth 20 gauge daly. but u know if stoeger made a 20 gauge youth i would buy that in a heart beat but oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashtx556ftw Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 is it new??all the new Charles Dalys ive shot kicked pretty good at first. mine got a lot smoother after it had around 2 cases of shells ran through it. so whats your opinion of how it shoots, other than the recoil??

brad_pro Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 i like how it shoots i shot a 25 at trap strait out of the box my first time ever shooting a 25 at trap i was so happy but i went home after that bruised and battered but then i got the limb saver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnywitt Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 what is a kick eez trap dude? Kick-Eez is a maker of recoil pads. The Benelli come with a pad that I'm pretty sure is actually a Kick eez pad. The Trap Dude is just a thicker pad that they make for guys shooting max dram 1 1/4 oz. handicap "trap" or "pigeon" loads. They are pretty stout loads and will ring your bell in a light field gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashtx556ftw Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 im glad you liked it. i havnt talked to many people that own one, that was unhappy with them. thier very hard to beat for the price. after you shoot it a bit, it will lossen up some. mine doesnt kick as hard as my Franchi AL-48 20ga now. but if you shoot any 3" mags, grit your teeth. cause it will jar them out.

brad_pro Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 really even if u swap the pistion over it will kick hard and do u know if it will damage the gun if u dont swap it over when u shoot even 2 3/4 mag loads or do u just have to swap it over for 3 inch loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashtx556ftw Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 i read the manual on the C/D field hunter cover to cover. it doesnt say anything about needing to flip the plunger over for different loads.ive shot loads as low as 2 3/4 drams, 7/8oz to 3"magnums through it with no problems at all.

brad_pro Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 i would be willing to bet that if u switched the pistion around it wouldnt kick as hard with thoes 3 inch loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashtx556ftw Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 after looking at it, it might do some real damage.because it does not look reversable. it doesnt say it in the manual to flip it for hotter loads, in the assembly instructions, it shows how it is supposed to be installed. i wouldnt try it myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad_pro Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 really how old is yours? i just bought mine and the pistion is reversable just like on the franchi 720 and if i flip it over with just standard field loads it wont eject them which i use for trap shooting so the shells dont go every where. but right there on the pistion it says heavy/mag and std(which i would believe means standard)/ light and then on the peice the reversable pistion pairs up to it says loads and it is totaly reversable so i will post the question on the charles daly fourms and see what is going on there i will get back to u as to what people say.
