Description

A Browning Citori 12GA Grade 6 (also known as the Midas Grade) is a high-end, collectible over/under shotgun, a top-tier model from Browning's past production, featuring exquisite gold inlays of game birds (ducks, pheasants, quail) on blued steel, detailed engraving, select wood, and often an adjustable trigger, representing a classic, desirable piece for collectors and shooters, though no longer in current production by Browning.
Key Characteristics:
Engraving: Deep, detailed engraving with contrasting gold wire borders and specific gold birds (mallards, pheasants, quail) on the receiver.
Wood: Features Grade 6 wood, known for its quality and finish.
Action: Hand-finished action with a selective safety and gold trigger.
Chokes: Often came with Invector chokes, offering versatility for different shooting disciplines like sporting clays or game shooting.
Status: A discontinued, premium model, considered a "must-have" by many enthusiasts, with high value in the used market.
Distinction from Modern Citori Models:
While modern Citori models (like the CX, White Lightning) are excellent, the Grade 6 is a specific, older, high-grade collectible, distinct from the standard production grades (Grade I, II, etc.) found today.
In essence: If you see a Citori Grade 6, you're looking at one of the finest, most ornate versions Browning ever made in that line, valued for its craftsmanship and aesthetics as much as its performance.
