(5 out of 5) Great shotgun
by Martin from Kalispell, MT on October 3, 2023

Looks and shoots great! Had some jamming problems, but once I got many rounds off it and did a good cleaning, it performs better than the first time! This is over 3 years of owning it! Love it!

(5 out of 5) Citadel Boos 25 12 ga Shotgun
by Steve from Bay Minette, AL on December 10, 2024

Just ordered mainly because it has great reviews, as long as I follow the break-in directions. Can't wait to get it in and try it out. Will give an update then.

(5 out of 5) The Boss 25
by Greggory from Detroit, MI on November 22, 2025

The Boss 25 is The Boss. It's very particular on ammo velocity, so make sure to feed it the good stuff. Very reliable and thunderous!!
