My 12 gauge , this 28 and the 410 I have coming have the beavertail forend that the Citori's seem to be patterned afte and those three have no crossbolt . My 20 gauge skeet if my memory serves does have the crossbolt as well as my 20 gauge field and 12 gauge magnum . But the latch on all of them are the expected Superposed drop latch and the forend slides forward .
It's incorrect actually to say these guns have a Citori style forend as they were made 5 or so years before the Citori was unvieled in the mid 70's .
