I've only owned SxSs my entire life. The first O/U I ever got to shoot was a Citori and that poisoned my mind against O/Us. I managed to fire 4 rounds before returning the gun to its owner and later that day, to be polite, shot two more. I have never touched a Citori again.

Now maybe if my first O/U experience had been with a Boss or a Rizzini RBEL...who knows?

The low-end Beretta model 68Xs aren't as ugly or as clunky as the Citori.

But the damage was done and I'm still happy with my SxSs.
