TFL Review Summary

Although the ergonimics of the Citori Hunter were not our favorite, the gun mounted, pointed and shot extremely well. The Hunter is a solid gun for the money. We prefer over-under shotguns with a little more style such as engravings, but if you are looking for a nothing fancy, solid over-under that is enjoyable to shoot, the Citori Hunter is one to consider.
