Browning has expanded its popular Citori 725 line with the addition a pair of new 20 gauge models: the Citori Field and Citori Sporting.

The lightweight 20-gauge Citori 725 over-and-unders come standard with all of the features of the line's 12-gauge models—including the Fire Lite Mechanical Trigger System and full-width hinge pin and tapered locking bolt receiver design. The new models utilize Browning's Inflex II recoil pad, which is designed to divert recoil down and away from the shooters face.

For a more consistent shot pattern, the 20-gauge Citori 725 uses Browning's Back Bored Technology barrels with Vector Pro lengthened forcing cones and the new Invector-DS choke tube system.

The Sporting model will feature a silver nitride finish receiver with gold accented target engraving. The ventilated top and side ribs are featured in 28", 30" or 32" barrel lengths. It will ship with an MSRP of $3,139.99.

The Field Model also features a silver nitride finish receiver, though it's accented with high relief engraving of game bird scenes. It will be available with 26" or 28" barrels, and will ship with an MSRP of $2,469.99.
