We just got one (and only) in stock. It is a beautiful gun to handle. Hope he likes it; there is very few around, it seems.

I use a white lightning 16, it is better balanced than any other citori in my opinion. I wish the 16 had better supplies of non-toxic factory loads, but I use mine for everything during mixed bag hunts and am well satisfied.
I have an older citori 16 and its my favorite gun for upland hunting. Feels like I'm carrying a 20 but the way it brings down birds seems almost unbelievable. I've read somewwhere its a hard hitting gun because of the square load.
I'd really like to handle a new citori 16, I wasn't even aware browning made these guns anymore.

We had three come in and all were sold before they even made it to the website. We may be getting a lightning, white lightning. and a feather lightning in 16g soon.

just to confirm that they do work very well for a variety of game...
Yes it would, but then it would not be a 16
I think Browning builds their 16s on a 16 frame and not just a 12 with 16 gauge barrels. Browning's 28 is just a 20 with 28 gauge barrels. Not really that sweet!just to confirm that they do work very well for a variety of game...
What is the 2nd from the right? Looks like a shoveler? Those pointy beaked things? Are they good to eat? To make it a real mixed bag, you need at least one coot and one crane

Yup, shoveller and snipe along with the huns, teal and mallard. My White lightning 16 has been used to shoot coots and cranes too, and cottontails, and snowshoe hares, and jacks, all 5 geese species, and all the puddle duck species ( except woodies, would love to get one! ) a few divers, and ruffed grouse, sharptials, pheasant, and probably some other game that I don't remember. Ate it all, and enjoyed it! - and so did "Bear" my Pudelpointer.
To me, a versatile shotgun and a versatile dog and a variety of game are about as good as it gets!

I can confirm that! I have a Citori 12, and a Citori .410. the .410 is built on the 20 ga. frame as is the 28. The 12 is kinda clunky, and the .410 kinda whippy and fat in the middle, but the 16 ga. is the Goldilocks gun - "just right"!

and built on a 16 g frame !!! Not a 12 for sure.

Just put my name on a White Lightning 16g from Clay at Prophet River! Haven't been this excited about buying something in a long time. Anybody out there with Citori 16g's please put some good pics up!
