I’ve shot a 1975 Browning Citori for many years and have been quite satisfied with it. Interesting story to share though, thanks.
Are you serious? It's 'Am Shooting Journal'.
I bought a Citori trap model in what I think was the mid 80's.. It was a fine gun, worked very well.. But the metal, what'a rust bucket..! It would rust right through all the oil I would apply to it..
I think it was in the late 80's when I took it to the "Browning Booth" at the Grand in Vandalia Ohio and the Rep look at it and said, "It's just surface rust, nothing to worry about". Needless to say, I traded it off soon after that...
I have other Brownings and they are totally excellent... :)
I have several rather fancy, engraved over and unders, but my Citori Lightning is by far my favorite. So I’ll bite, what’s the story? :)
