mlfgunsCharles Daly mini action.
I have not seen one in person. Since it is similar to the Zastava action with a different importer stamp.
Is the Charles Daly mini, a short actioned Mauser size, compared to the full size Zastava model 70 CRF. Or same as the small model 85 Push feed.

martFjold is spot on. It's a push feed, the same as the Zastavas 85. I have three of the actions, two of which I've had barreled. The third is waiting for me to make up my mind. Here's a couple of pics of the Charles Daly action action in the white. Sorry I don't have a good one of the extractor.

mlfgunsMart Thank you. I appreciate the effort with the photos. It is nice for us lefty shooters, to have a place to get concrete answers from fellow AR LH members.

martI'm on the slope right now but when I get home in mid December I can take some more pictures of the action if that would help.

Vol717Is the mini action threaded for a barrel? Someone once told me the barrels were pinned.

martThreaded. I don't know about the newer Zastavas 85's but the Daly actions are threaded. I'd be very surprised if any of them were pinned.
