Anyone know what these weight, with 28” barrels, not the super light, but the regular version?
And do they come with a recoil pad or hard butt plate? |

I had a feather steel a few years ago and don't recall what the weight was, but I recall it was about 14 oz heavier than the alloy. It had a plastic buttplate. |

I have a Citori feather with 28" barrels. It weighs almost exactly 6 lbs - within a fraction of an ounce. It came with a plastic buttplate. I had the length trimmed a tiny bit, and added a Pachmayr Old English pad, .8" thick. It weighs 6 lbs with that pad installed. |

Thanks guys
There’s one on GB now, with a vented recoil pad and a 14” lop. I believe the stock has been cut and a pad added. |

I have several of these Citori's with English stock, schnabel forend and 28" barrels. The black steel receiver version is the Lightning Superlight and the alloyed receiver guns are Lightning Superlight Feather. "Superlight" is somewhat of a misnomer, as my guns all weigh in the neighborhood of 6# 12oz - 6# 14oz. My Superlight Feathers, on the other hand, all weigh an ounce or two under 6#. All have the factory plastic buttplate. |

I have a Citori lighting Feather with 28” barrels Mfg. in 2007. It weighs 6lb. 3oz.
It has a POW stock and had a plastic buttplate. It had a glossy finish, so I stripped it off and put a teak oil finish on it. It pattern hi and to the left so I bent the stock.
Cast off about a 1/4” and took an 1/8” off the comb. Also added a recoil pad. My favorite 16 ga. Now. Good luck shopping. |

JMS is right- I had a Superlight which had a steel frame, schnable forend and straight English grip. the alloy frame was called Superlight feather. I got the names mixed. |
