Browning Citori Value?
 
I've got a Browning Citori White Lightning. 20 ga. with 26" barrels. Very lightly used in excellent condition. Bought new about 10 years ago. Anybody know what a fair private party sale price would be on this? Thanks in advance.

I'm thinking $14-1600

Somewhere in there. Stupid expensive guns....

Why would you want to sell a sweet spoon like that is beyond me. I long for a citori....

CurtEgerer 04-12-2012 03:01 PM

Yeah, I know :rolleyes: It's probably the best hunting gun I've ever used. It fits me perfect and is so light you can carry it all day long. But I haven't had time to hunt in several years and I'd rather use the money to buy a nice self-defense shotgun.

porsche4life 04-12-2012 03:04 PM

Go buy a cheap mossburg, and keep the citori....

my brother has a 12 ga citori, great gun and he can really swing it, seen him go all day shooting trap and not miss one

I have a 12 gauge Citori, I bought for $800 new about 20 years ago, very happy with it. Screw in choke tubes.

LOl when I first glanced at the title of this thread I thought someone was headed for the island, but it didn't really say what I thought it said ;)

I've spent some time with the single barreled browning trap gun. Very crisp gun with a tight pattern. When you connect with the target, it just smokes em.


I love Brownings. :)

True story: the first 10 times I pulled the trigger on this gun, I killed a grouse each time! Missed on the 11th trigger pull, but got him with the other barrel :)

Wasn't someone on the board looking for an O/U recently? I don't know if you've already lined up a buyer.

Man, with the right chokes, that would be a nice little skeet gun. I shoot a Citori 525 Sporting with 32-inch barrels. Just a really nice piece of gear. You point it at a clay pigeon and pull the trigger, the clay turns into fragments and dust.

WHY?????

Wife will let her Colts go before ANYONE touches her Brownings!! and she is extremely fond of her Colts!!!!!!


Get a cheap private party sale shotgun if that is what you wish for personal defense. You can also get a .357 and shoot .38 pellets all day long. Do they still make .44 Spec pellets?


Where in the midwest are you? Check out Indiana Gun Owners if you are in this area. You can do what you state for less than three bills. Those Citoris are hard to come by!

tabs 04-13-2012 07:14 AM

I see 12 GA Citoris go for 1000 to 1200 all the time, so a 20 GA 1200 to 1400 ought to be about right.

Wha tI would like is a Citori 410 GA Grade 5 or 6...

tabs 04-13-2012 07:19 AM

Browning B-125 12GA FWT Grade C

why does anyone feel the need to show other gun pics when a simple question was asked?:)

i just saw one on sale on some archery site..$1400.

i have a 12, but would LOVE a 20.

CurtEgerer 04-13-2012 12:05 PM

There are a lot of different Citoris out there and I'm no expert on these, so the input is appreciated. I had a figure of $1200-$1400 in mind originally and it sounds about right, maybe a little low.

I'm looking at a Benelli M1 Super 90 Tactical as home defense gun. Not cheap. Or maybe I can convert my M1 Super 90 duck gun, but probably cheaper to buy new.

I have a 12 Citori as well. It swings and sings. But a 20. or a .410?

Yes. please.

The short answer is "Less than it would cost to replace"

If there is any chance you will ever hunt again, don't sell it. Take a bag lunch for a month or so and buy a Mossberg pump for a house gun.

targa911S 04-13-2012 03:07 PM

$1200-$1600
