OverUnder question

[u/Jadoo_21]

Hey fellow gun owners,

I’m looking for my first shotgun and I’m leaning towards an over-under. I’ll be using it for clay bashing.

Since I’m left-handed, I’ve found that over-unders are a great start for me, rather than semi-autos.

I don’t hunt, so this will be purely for clay shooting, target practice at the range, and other activities.

I’d love to know your recommendations for my first over-under. Ideally, I’m looking to spend between $1,000 and $1,500, either used or new.

I went to my closest Ramakko’s and saw a used Browning Citori with a 30-inch barrel. It’s in pretty good condition and they’re selling it for around $1,500 CAD plus taxes.

What do you think? Is that a good price? Also, when can I find private ads so I can compare different options?

Since this is my first gun, I don’t want to go over budget. Maybe I’ll stick with semi-autos or a different gauge in the future, but I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

I use a Browning Citori CX, love that gun! For $1500, it's a steal. I paid like $3k for mine a couple of years ago (with an adjustable comb).

For that price, I'd take it and run.
