The nice thing about the Citori, is that it is very repairable.
And tunable.
However they are also popular, and it sounds like yours is a trap gun that is seen considerable use, and has probably been tinkered with.
I say that because, I have a couple Citori’s that I’ve never removed the trigger guards on them in 25 years, so I can’t imagine why anybody would be inside the internals of a browning at less than 25,000 or more rounds.
Which wouldn’t necessarily wear out anything of importance.
And it would be pretty obvious if it was a high use gun, just by looking at the breech face.
if it just flops open when you push the top lever over, it probably has been on the trap line. They start out pretty tight.
