Browning Citori O/U Grade I 12Ga 32" w/ choke set

[GunslingerOne]

What's it worth? Bought it new in 1980. Very good condition.

Who installed the chokes? I don't think the Invector Chokes were out that far back... it does make a difference.

Does it have a factory hard case, etc?

If it's just the gun and some aftermarket choke tubes, $850 or so... there might be some local variance.

Has all invector chock tubes

Which model? Gti, Special Sporting, something else?

In May of 1990 your trap citori sold new at wholesale for $ 829.95 Traps are shot hard, so its worth $800 today. Take a check?

You have a 1980 shotgun with a choke tube system that wasn't invented until 1983. It would be nice to know the details of how it ended up that way.

"The Invector, or ""Standard Invector" system" was introduced in 1983."

Think you don't have the purchase date right as 32" barrels were not offered in 1980 on a Citori, 30" was the max I believe.

What are the two letters in the serial number? That will settle the question of when the gun was made...
