When choosing an over/under shotgun that balances classic aesthetics with modern shooting performance, attention to materials, fit, and choke options matters most. A well-crafted shotgun should deliver consistent patterns, comfortable handling in the field, and a finish that holds up to regular use.

BROWNING CITORI GRAN LIGHTNING is an over under shotgun available in 12GA, 20GA, 28GA and 410 Bore. It features a lightning style Grade V/VI satin finish walnut stock, high polish blued barrel and high relief engraved receiver, ivory front and mid-bead sights, Midas grade Invector-Plus extended black band chokes. This over under shotgun is a great option for both hunting and sporting clays. This 12GA model has a 2 round capacity and features a 26″ barrel.

Design and Finish

The Gran Lightning’s Grade V/VI satin walnut stock combines high-figure wood with a satin treatment that reduces glare while showing off grain detail. The high polish blued barrel provides corrosion resistance and an attractive contrast to the satin stock, and the high relief engraved receiver adds visual refinement without compromising durability. Ivory front and mid-bead sights offer clear sighting points for quick acquisition on moving targets.

Performance Features

For the 12GA model, the 26″ barrel length is a deliberate choice: it offers a fast swing for clays and upland game while still supporting solid patterns at range. The 2 round capacity is standard for over/under shotguns and aligns with hunting regulations and competitive formats. Midas grade Invector-Plus extended black band chokes provide proven constriction options and easy interchangeability to tune patterns for different loads and targets.

Gauge Options and Applications

Available in 12GA through 410 Bore, the Citori Gran Lightning covers a wide set of missions. The 12GA is the workhorse for mixed-field hunting and sporting clays; 20GA reduces recoil for longer days or smaller framed shooters; 28GA and 410 Bore are ideal for lightweight upland carry or youth shooters seeking minimal recoil and quick handling.
