Browning Citori - Grade... 4??

[Guest Xen]

so, i'm trying to sell a gun for my dad. he swears the thing is a grade 4, but i can't find any information that they ever made the classic lightning in a grade 4. any ideas where i could look? because browning isn't very helpful.

thanks in advance - Xen

hmm, well, i guess never mind... i searched the browning site and it showed a press release where they added grades 4 and 7, and then saw an actual add for a grade 4. they just don't actually list it in their citori shotguns part

he only wants $2000 for it, but i keep telling him to sell it for more, because he has $700 in chokes from Briley and he only shot it for a month. he bought the gun and then decided he wanted a grade 6 because he liked the gold inlay in the engraving more i would honestly be suprised if it had more than 250 rounds through it.
