For a brief few months I was without a shotgun, and I can assure you it is an emasculating and throughly unfortunate feeling. Thankfully though, my malady has been rectified. For a few months I've been looking for a lightweight 20GA double that fit me well and swung proper. Lo' and behold, on Saturday at a local gunshow I saw a man carrying one and we struck a deal.

I'm now the proud owner of a Citori superlight with an english stock and 26" tubes. I had preferred 28" tubes, but these balance so well I was sold. Very 'magic wand' for me so the doves/quails/pheasants better watch out.

Pictures to follow
Nice shotgun
George,I've a regular Citori Lightning 20 with the 26" barrels. Sometimes in shirt sleaves it just swings to fast but with a sweatshirt on and a Filson vest it's all you could want in handling. best of luck .Magnum Man (yeah I wish mine were 28" too)

My twenty is the old Superposed with 26.5 IC/M tubes. To me it is just about perfect.

My 12 is a Beretta 687 SP IV, 28" with choke tubes. Being a little larger gun, it also suits me rather well.

26 inch barrels and English grip, make a field gun perfect for carrying and shooting, in either 12 or 20 Ga...

I have an older (80's?) Citori featherweight 20ga with 28" barrels. It has regular invector chokes, 2 3/4 only and swings beautifully...:)

I have never seen one with 28 inch tubes and a straight grip, 26 on a o/u is too short for me
When I was looking for a 20 Citori White Lightning, I tried both the 26 and 28. The 26 felt too whippy to me. The 28 points, for me, like a wand.

I have seen 2 or 3 others with 28" and straight grip for sale in Canada, but they all had fixed chokes. Mine is the only one I've seen with invectors.
