For shooters balancing field utility with practical home security, a pump-action shotgun that blends reliable mechanics with purposeful ergonomics makes a strong case. The platform should offer durable construction, predictable handling, and features that translate to both long-range patterning and close-quarters control.

CHARLES DALY 301 PUMP FIELD 12GA is presented as a versatile option, featuring FDE/Woodlands Camo finish, a 28″ barrel, checkered synthetic furniture, Beretta/Benelli(R) Mobil Style components, and an MC3 choke configuration. This combination targets hunters and defensive-minded owners who want a rugged, no-nonsense pump shotgun with field aesthetics.

Design and key features

The 28″ BBL (barrel) favors pattern consistency and velocity—benefits for field use and any scenario where tighter shot patterns are desirable. The FDE/Woodlands Camo finish reduces glare and blends into natural surroundings, while the checkered synthetic (Chk. Synthetic) furniture offers weather resistance and a confident grip under wet or cold conditions. The description’s reference to Beretta/Benelli mobil style indicates component compatibility with common receiver and bolt interfaces, making maintenance and parts sourcing more straightforward for many users.

MC3 choke and patterning

The listed MC3 choke provides adaptability for different loads and ranges, helping tailor spread density from hunting to close defensive work. Paired with the longer barrel, you get an option for denser patterns at typical field distances with the flexibility to swap or adjust choke constrictions when mission parameters change.
