Isn't the Citori Featherweight built on an aluminum alloy receiver - the discoloration would be corrosion, right? I don't know if there are any finishes that can be applied over the alloy or not. Not any help to you I'm afraid. I have had good luck with the Browning service center in Arnold MO, but that was only a one time issue - could depend on who you are dealing with. Write a letter to their corporate office and see if you get a different response. Good luck to you, Odessa


One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others.
