Finally did it!

After years (literally) of dithering over the One True Shotty, I accepted delivery on a brand-new Citori White Lightning yesterday afternoon.

Immediately took it to the range -- and read in the instruction book that it wanted its barrels cleaned of rust inhibitor before it was first used. :eek: Improvised a cleanout using some paper targets, and fired it a couple of times using some Winchester Feather.

Launched a clay. Dusted it. :D :D :D

I think I's gonna have fun! Thanks to all here who've responded to my endless barrage of wierd questions.

P.S. Sorry, Dave, but it wasn't an 870.

Congrats on your new Citori. I purchased a Citori XT last summer for skeet and couldn't be happier with it. Regarding cleaning, you may want to read a back article from Skeet Shooting Review (can find back issues online) on maintaining an over/under written by Todd Bender and the head gunsmith from Krieghoff - lots of useful tips.

Enjoy! I like Citoris also. Good shotguns. Now, BA/UU/R.....

If I hit the Lottery sometime, I might get one, or maybe that Cynergy that they just put out.

I love my 870s, but I'd like to do an O/U just to see what happens...

Saw the Cynergys (Cynergies?) in print somewhere. Wondered what the point was. :confused:

Now, BA/UU/R..... Sorry, not familiar.

BA/UU/R = Buy ammo, use up, repeat. Dave's mantra... :D
