RE: Over/Under Barrel Length
I shoot a Browning Citoi lightning with 26" barrels. When I first bought the gun, the barrels seemed hard to get used to, since I was going from an auto with 28" barrels. The overall length of the gun was much shorter than the auto, since the action is so short. It took some getting used to, but now am glad that I have the 26" barrels. I have shot lots of birds with that gun and would never consider anything else now. I have shot ducks over decoys, pass shot ducks and geese, shot early season pheasants that get up under my feet and made long shots after others in my group failed to down the bird. For me, it's the perfect gun. Shooting lots of clays in the off season is the key.
