Lot 432:
Charles Daly HP Semi-Automatic Pistol 9mm with 4.5 Inch Barrel
Description
This lot features a Charles Daly HP semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9mm Luger, a well-regarded American-market clone of the classic Browning Hi-Power design. This example is configured with a 4.5-inch barrel and utilizes a single-action operating system. The pistol features a blued finish on both the slide and the frame, complemented by black synthetic checkered grips. Key technical features include a ring-style hammer, an ambidextrous thumb safety, and three-dot combat sights. The slide’s left side is prominently marked with “Charles Daly HP” in large silver-tone letters. The right side of the frame is marked “Charles Daly”, “Harrisburg, PA.”, and “Made in USA”, indicating its domestic manufacture for the Charles Daly brand. The serial number HP00785 is stamped on the right side of the frame above the trigger guard, and the barrel is marked “CAL. 9mmP” at the ejection port. This lot includes one detachable box magazine, featuring a black polymer base plate with three vertical grooves and the marking “PATENT 5,386,567” on the side. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The pistol displays moderate overall wear consistent with use. The blued finish shows thinning and high-edge wear, particularly on the front strap, backstrap, and trigger guard. There are scattered light scratches and small areas of surface oxidation visible on the frame and slide. The synthetic grips are intact with crisp checkering and minor handling marks. The bore appears bright with defined rifling. The action appears to function correctly, though it has not been live-fire tested. The magazine is in good condition with minor finish wear and a functional spring.
