Browning Screwdrivers

I need to take my citori apart. The screws have very narrow slots. I have a set of Grace screwdrivers but they are much too wide/thick to fit the screws in the citori.

Will this set of drivers made for an A-5 work on the citori?

I don't know about the rest of the gun and not all Citori's may be the same, but my XS Skeet uses a #2 Phillips to take the recoil pad off and a straight screwdriver with a shank of about 8" to get the stock off. I believe a "hollow ground" tip would better grasp the head of the stock bolt.

Go to Brownell's and order their bit set, they are cheap and a ton better than the Grace. I have had 3 Grace screwdrivers break, but never broke a Brownell's bit

That's a plus-1.
The Brownell's Magna-Tip driver bits come in the super narrow thicknesses as used on older European guns.
They come in more widths and thicknesses than anyone else's and the quality is the best there is.

Just measure the width of the slot and the thickness of the slot and buy the bits that match. They have many sizes.
