Browning Citori 825 Noir Sporting / 12ga, 3″ / 32″ INV DS

** ETA – September 3rd, 2026 ** 2026 SHOT Show Special – Versatile Citori 825 over and under 12 gauge shotgun tailored for sporting clays and skeet competition. Features a AAAA maple stock with all new dark-stain finish, Fire Lite 2 Mechanical Trigger, and the Midas Grade Invector-DS choke tube system. Overview For an extended period, the music instrument industry has been enhancing luxury guitars with a dark stain. Recognizing the allure of this concept, Browning presents the 825 Noir Sporting. Undoubtedly, the most striking characteristic of this sporting shotgun is its dark-stained Grade AAAA maple stock, which appears almost holographic as it rotates in the light. To perfectly complement this exquisite finish, a gloss blued receiver with brushed sides, gold accents, a jeweled monoblock, and gloss finish barrels create a stunning contrast. Like the B25 and other Citori models, Citori 825 shotguns rely on the blueprint of the renowned full-width hinge and tapered locking lug design to provide maximum strength and unstoppable reliability for a shotgun that will outlast every other. All of this durability is stuffed inside a low-profile receiver that offers advantages to the shooter, as well. The reduced height of the receiver lowers the bore line of the barrels to optimize swing and pointability, while also putting the barrels more in line with the shoulder to better control felt recoil and minimize muzzle jump for more accurate second shots. The receiver is also where the changes that highlight the Citori 825 begin where styling and engraving artwork alter both shape and appearance. Visual differences stop at the receiver, with the stock and forearm both receiving subtle new styling cues that are accentuate the aggressive look of the Citori 825. The popular mechanical trigger from the Citori 725 has been enhanced to offer even better performance and lighter pull weights than ever before. Dependability with extra light loads has also been improved. Other new features added to the Citori 825 Sporting center around the interface with the shooter. The controls have been redesigned, with the shape of the safety/selector making it easier to use. The top lever is more ergonomic, easier to operate, and the styling blends with the looks of the receiver. Even the forearm latch has been scrutinized with the larger lever making it easier to remove the forearm. Across the board, the Inflex II recoil pad makes shooting more comfortable with the combination of a soft material and internal ribbing that forces the comb down and away from the face to reduce felt recoil. A smooth heel eliminates snagging when shouldering.
