    Purchased a Daley a few months ago. The ejector needed to be modified. It threw the case straight back. After a few shots I was flinching before I even thought about pulling the trigger. While it was in the shop, I also had the trigger pull reduced from the approximate 700# :-) pull that it had to a more reasonable 3#. Now I love the little booger. Gus

    A friend has one. The recoil spring plug was out of round and they immediately sent a new one. They also have an upgrade kit for around $20.00, although the newer gun comes with it installed. They shoot well and are accurate, however they will NOT accept the .22 conversion kit made for the 1911 and most of the clones. The frame is thicker than standard, which prevents the kit from fitting. A gunsmith would have to fit it for you, which can be done.

    Will they accept standard Colt or colt type magazines as well?

    They will accept the standard Colt type mags and the even better Wilson mags with no problem.
