First off, let me apologize for not just listing the gun here, but I'm in Illinois and with all the new restrictive laws here I'm just no longer comfortable shipping guns. A local store does a great job on GunBroker, so that is where the gun is listed.

This is a really nice early long tang Citori Lightning with 26" barrels, and yes it is a 16 gauge. According to a cheap kitchen scale it weighs 6 pounds 11 ounces. I've had it for about 15 years. It came to me lightly used and I've only fired maybe a half dozen boxes through it. While it does have the original box, the box label was missing when the gun came to me. Hopefully someone here ends up with it, and if you have any questions please let me know.

Looks nice. No apology necessary.
With UPS and FedEx making things more difficult, I am doing the same.
I found a local guy who is great at taking pics. Starts all auctions at $1.
So far so good.
I wish you hadn't posted this, as I may bid, and I need another shotgun like I need another hole in my head.

For those of you keeping track of pricing trends on these, the Citori hammered closed last night for $2,980. This is about a thousand more than I expected, I guess two guys really, really wanted it. As the seller, I'm pleased........

Well I guess the White Lightning 16ga that only had a box if that many shells through it that my wife bought me for around 2200 wasn't such a bad deal after all
