Product Overview
The Browning Citori Laredo is a purpose-built over/under shotgun designed for high-level sporting clays and range use. This limited-edition variant integrates specialized barrel technology with robust construction and refined aesthetics to meet the demands of discerning shooters.
Design and Construction
The receiver is fabricated from steel and finished with a durable silver nitride, providing resistance against corrosion and wear while maintaining a distinctive appearance. This surface is extensively adorned with a Western-themed laser-engraving, meticulously hand-retouched to enhance depth and contrast. Complementary engraving extends to the trigger guard and forearm lever. The top lever incorporates an engraved horseshoe and lariat hoop motif. The barrel set features a gloss blued finish and a vent rib, contributing to optimized point-of-aim. The break-open action accommodates two rounds.
Performance Dynamics
Core to the Citori Laredo’s performance is the **Total Barrel Dynamics** system. This three-pronged approach is engineered to generate denser, more predictable shot patterns across various choke configurations. It comprises **Vector Pro** lengthened forcing cones, which gradually transition the shot column to mitigate pellet deformation; **back-boring**, which optimizes bore diameter to reduce friction and improve velocity; and the **Invector-Plus** choke tube system, enabling precise pattern density adjustments for specific target presentations. This integrated system ensures consistent shot delivery.
Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The stock and forearm are crafted from Turkish walnut, featuring fine-line checkering to ensure a secure grip. The stock incorporates a right-hand palm swell, ergonomically designed to enhance control and shooter comfort, alongside a subtle nameplate inlay. Recoil mitigation is managed by the integrated Inflex II recoil pad, which absorbs felt recoil to sustain shooter endurance during extended sessions.
