I recently picked up a pair of these Citadels to play with.During the first range test I had a few FTF and was finding plastic shavings from the hulls.. A friend of mine, Saltydecimator from the Saiga forum, who had a Turkish bullpup, had me check for sharp edges where the extractor locks in and the shell starts to chamber underneath the guide hood.After slowly cycling in a safe place his hunch proved to be right.I put a Dremel polishing wheel in that area for a few minutes and retested on the range.The Citadel ran everything I had without a failure from the shoulder and the hip. I did not test Win Universal because I refuse to buy that garbage ammo anymore.It ran all sorts of Fed bulk and Target, Win hunting rounds , Suprema , Remington, Noble Sport and buckshot.Some of the ammos were 1200 fps. I need an improved cylinder bore for slugs.I used 4 different magazines in test. OEM V12, OEM IZ 030 series, SGM and the OEM Citadel mags. It's a great shotty, especially after buying the pair for 600 shipped.The OEM FCG is already profiled and the hammer face sits lower than an OEM Molot FCG. I might just polish up that FCG and see how it feels. It does have some serious trigger slap.I am ordering a Benelli screw in brake in improved cylinder bore for some slug action.
