Hardcore turkey hunters can now rely on the venerable Franchi Affinity platform to hunt elusive toms with the introduction of the new Affinity Turkey shotguns, available in 12- or 20-gauge.

Franchi Affinity Turkey 12-gauge Shotgun


Where the new Affinity Turkey guns shine is their dependable Inertia-Driven System, with fewer parts for ultra-reliability with minimal cleaning and maintenance required. The gun’s trim profile and 24-inch barrel allows for easy, quick maneuvering in the turkey woods.

The stock is covered in Mossy Oak Bottomland camo and features a pistol grip for a sure hold, while an oversized bolt handle and bolt release provide easy operation with gloved hands. The enlarged loading port allows for quick reloading, and the front fiber-optic sight is shrouded with a hood cover for protection. The receiver has been drilled and tapped for the addition of optics.

Franchi Affinity Turkey Buttstock and Pistol Grip


A modular trigger assembly is easily removed from the receiver for cleaning, and two sling attachments deliver hands free transportation. Extended turkey and extra-full turkey chokes are included, as well.

The 12-gauge Affinity Turkey has an MSRP of $1,129, while the 20-gauge has an MSRP of $959. For more information, visit franchiusa.com.

On this week's #SudnayGunday, we’re checking out the Chiappa Rhino 60 DS. All it takes is once glance to tell this is not your granddad’s revolver. Chiappa has flipped the script on wheelguns quite literally, aligning the barrel with the bottommost chamber of the cylinder, rather than the top. This low bore axis makes the gun recoil directly back into the hand, rather than pulling the muzzle up and away from your grip. Learn more about it in this exclusive video.

Member's Hunt: The Dogger’s Window

A dogger’s goal while pushing deer is to drive the prey into a pocket formed by others in his gang, those hunters who are posted about a hundred yards apart along strategic locations up to a half-mile away from the dogger’s starting point. When everyone is in position, the dogger weaves his way through the woods into the wind and pocket formed by the other hunters. The approaching sound of the dogger snapping twigs and crunching leaves alerts unsuspecting deer.
