The Charles Daly 335 Pump Field Maxi-Mag is a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun built around the 3.5-inch Maxi-Mag chamber. The 24-inch vent rib, chrome-lined barrel and 5+1 capacity make it a reasonable choice for waterfowl or upland hunting, and the Mossy Oak Greenleaf Camo finish blends into natural cover. At 6 lbs. 9 oz. and 46.125 inches overall, it's light enough to carry all day.

Usage Notes 

The 335 fits best in a hunting context — the camo finish and 3.5-inch chamber cover most waterfowl loads. The fiber optic bead and Picatinny rail give some flexibility for adding optics. It also works for trap and skeet practice given the 5+1 capacity and quick pump cycle.

The Charles Daly 335 Camo gets mixed but generally fair reviews. Affordability is its most cited strength — buyers looking for a reliable pump at a lower price point tend to come away satisfied, and the shotgun cycles smoothly with most common loads.

The camo finish is popular with hunters who use the gun in the field. Weight comes up positively too; at under 7 lbs it's easy to carry.

The negatives are consistent across discussions. Build quality draws comparisons to more established names unfavorably, with some owners reporting parts wearing faster than expected or needing minor adjustments after light use. Aftermarket support is thin — replacement parts and accessories specific to this model are harder to find than for more popular platforms. Heavier Maxi-Mag loads produce noticeable recoil that some shooters find uncomfortable over long sessions.

Overall, the 335 is a workable field shotgun at its price point, with the trade-offs you'd expect from a budget-friendly pump.
