There have been a lot of Browning Citori models over the years. We’ll cover some of the most common ones in the resale market below.

Browning Citori Hunter Grade I Value

The average used Browning Citori Hunter Grade I is worth $500 to $1,300. A new Citori Hunter Grade I sells for $1,950 at retail.

Like the other Browning Citori models, the Hunter Grade I is available in a number of gauges and barrel lengths. The standard configuration uses a satin-finish black walnut stock, polished and blued receiver and barrel, and comes with three choke tubes.

This is pretty much the Hunter, but with improved materials and aesthetics. The walnut stock is upgraded to a Grade II/III one and the receiver is finished in silver nitride with gold enhancement.

Browning Citori Composite Value

The average used Browning Citori Composite is worth $600 to $1,400. A new Citori Composite sells for $2,000 at retail.

This replaces the walnut portions of the standard Citori with composite and rubber parts for better wet-weather durability. The Point of Impact on these is 60/40 and you can get them in 26” to 30” barrels.

Browning Citori CX Value

The average used Browning Citori CX is worth $900 to $1,900. A new Citori CX sells for $2,300 at retail.

Value Factor 3: Browning Citori Grade

Browning Citori value is often heavily dependent on the gun’s grade. A Grade II Hunter is often worth about $200 more than a Grade I Hunter, for example.

You can determine the grade through both the appearance of the firearm and its serial number.

In terms of appearance, higher grades are assigned to guns with:

• More elaborate engraving or scrollwork. Plain receivers are often just Grade I.
• Better-quality stocks and finishes. Grade I guns often have Grade I walnut stocks with very little figuring and done in a satin finish (instead of glossy).

In terms of serial numbers, these can tell you the grades of the materials and engraving for your gun’s model. You can check serials on Browning’s official website.

If you’re not sure, ask us to appraise your Citori. Again, we do it for free if you’re a seller.

Value Factor 4: Accessories or Upgrades

Some accessories (if in superb condition and by respected manufacturers) can improve the value of a Browning Citori. It’s always dependent on the buyer, though. A lot of them will only want the gun itself and not what they perceive as “extras.”

If you want to sell a Browning Citori with accessories, try contacting us. We often take everything sellers have to offer, from accessories to ammo!

Original Box and Papers

If these are still in superb condition, offer them with the gun. The value of the packaging will be dependent on its condition and type (cardboard boxes are worth less than the case-type ones).

Value: Around $15 to $55 for the matching box and papers.

Choke Tubes

Depending on the buyer’s preferences, more choke tubes aside from those that come standard with the Citori may be appreciated. Browning ones are obviously easiest to sell with the gun.

Value: Around 30% to 50% of the accessory’s original cost.
