Howdy all,
I'm new to this here scene.  Gotta question for my pard who doesn't do the internet.  In his collection of SA revolvers he's got one that he bought from a friend, who said it was a Charles Daly.  From what I can tell, it is because it's imported by KBI or however that works.

I've just not found any other info on it.   It's a 4"+ blued barrel with a case hardened frame. The grips are black plastic and have eagles on them with the lettering KBI Liberty II.  I know KBI and CD were in bed together up until they closed their doors... but the old internet doesn't say much else on this thing. The searches I've done link up to a Liberty II shotgun, with no other reference than an old forum post saying the Liberty II SAA clone was supposed to match the shotgun from Turkey.  I can't even find a picture that looks like the one he's got.  I can only find online pictures of KBI SAA clones with wood grips. 

Anyone got info on this thing and what it's worth?  Even though it's a low quality clone, it locks up real nice and the 4 click hammer is smooth as butter on a tin roof.

Howdy Pitchfork, and welcome. Don't know about the revolvers, but I have two CD 306 12ga shotguns. Love em, but no parts to be found anywhere. Numrich was suppose to buy all thier inventory, to date they have none of the parts listed or avalible. Yes I called, said they had never heard of the 306, now I need a hammer spring. Plenty of Ubertis, GWII, and USFAs  out there new and used, my suggestion would be to stick with a reputable brand with a zillion parts avalible. They all lock up real nice and have four click hammers also. Good Luck.

Thanks for the reply, Jefro.  After I posted I kept digging and found out pretty much what you explained.  Nobody is claiming the CD's for warranty/spare parts.  It's especially sad that a gun company went out of business with the US gun market booming like it is today.
