When you’re ready to fire you simply move the “safety” to the off safe position, take aim and squeeze the trigger. You pivot the barrel(s) down to open the action, insert shell(s) into the chamber(s) then firmly close the action. With the “safety” placed in the on safe position, the action is opened by pushing a lever on the top of the receiver. Thus, they are the easiest to understand and operate for a first-time shotgunner. Hinge-action or break-action shotguns can have one or two barrels and are very intuitive. The point is, of course, that our heritage of shotgun knowledge spans the centuries, and we hope we can help you make the right decision on your first shotgun purchase. They are the foundation upon which many modern pump-action designs are based, like today's Browning BPS.
The Superposed/Citori design has been the standard of over and under reliability for over three-quarters of a century. In addition, John Moses Browning designed some of the first pump-action shotguns for Winchester Repeating Arms in the 1890s. Browning's autoloading design genius can be seen in the modern Browning A5, Maxus and Silver shotguns. His original Superposed over/under evolved into today's line of Citori and Citori 725 shotguns.
If you’re a first-time shotgun buyer, Browning would like to offer some tips to make your first firearm a safe, prudent and useful purchase.Ī few interesting things to note are that our founder, John Moses Browning, created both the semi-automatic shotgun (the original Auto-5) and the modern over/under shotgun (Superposed/Citori).
