Description

There's a reason the Citori name has been a fixture in duck blinds and pheasant fields for over 50 years. These guns are built on a full-width tapered locking bolt design that famously wears in rather than out, and the Hunter Grade I is the version made to be carried, hunted hard, and passed down. This 12 gauge model wears 28 inch barrels with 3 inch chambers, so it handles everything from light target loads at the clays course to stout waterfowl shells without complaint.

What Makes the Citori Hunter Grade I a True Field Gun

The metalwork is finished in a handsome gloss blue with gold enhancement on the receiver, and the Grade I American walnut stock has a smooth satin finish with cut 18 LPI checkering that grips well with cold or wet hands. The rounded pistol grip and forend help the gun come up to the shoulder fast, and the low-profile receiver sets the barrels deeper in your hands for that instinctive pointability Citoris are known for. An inertia trigger gives you a clean, consistent pull, automatic ejectors kick spent hulls clear the moment you break the action, and the tang safety doubles as your barrel selector.

Barrels Built for Real Hunting

Browning put serious work into these tubes. Chrome-plated chambers resist corrosion from wet-weather hunts, VectorPro lengthened forcing cones smooth out patterns and take some sting out of recoil, and the Invector-Plus choke system delivers consistent constriction shot after shot. Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder flush tubes come standard, covering everything from close-flushing quail to late-season roosters. The 50/50 point of impact is a smart choice for a hunting gun, since birds and clays rarely give you the same presentation twice.

At the back end, an Inflex 2 recoil pad soaks up recoil and guides the comb away from your cheek, which you'll appreciate after a long day in the dove field. With a 14 1/4 inch length of pull and 45 inch overall length, it balances and swings the way a 12 gauge over/under should. This is the Citori for people who buy guns to hunt with, not to look at.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Browning Citori Hunter Grade I shoot steel shot?

Yes. Browning has long built Citori barrels for dependable steel shot performance, and the Invector-Plus choke system is rated for steel loads. Just follow standard guidance and avoid pushing steel through the Full choke; the Modified tube is the better pick for steel waterfowl loads.

What's the difference between the Citori Hunter Grade I and Grade II?

Both share the same proven Citori action, blued barrels, and Inflex recoil pad. The Grade I has a gloss blued steel receiver with gold enhancement and Grade I satin walnut, while the Grade II steps up to a silver nitride receiver and higher-grade Grade II/III walnut. Mechanically, they perform the same in the field.

Is the Citori Hunter Grade I good for clays as well as hunting?

Absolutely. The 50/50 point of impact and 28 inch barrels make it a natural crossover gun for skeet, sporting clays, and five stand, and owners consistently praise how easily it shoulders and swings. Its weight also does a nice job taming recoil during longer sessions, though dedicated target guns typically pattern a bit higher.

Does this Citori have ejectors or extractors?

It has automatic ejectors, which throw fired hulls clear when you open the action while gently lifting unfired shells for easy removal by hand. That speeds up reloads in the dove field or on a busy skeet station. The tang safety also lets you select which barrel fires first.
