This year marks the inaugural offering of Franchi’s Companion Series celebrating the bond between gundog and hunter via detailed engravings on one of the company’s popular shotguns, with the Labrador Retriever featured on the Affinity 3 leading off the pending annual series.
Franchi understands the American hunter, and its new Instinct LX shotgun proves it. It’s good-looking, balances well, handles and functions perfectly, and is affordable.
The Momentum is Franchi’s step into the world of hunting rifles, and the company got it right on the first try. With an MSRP starting at about $600, the sleek bolt-action delivers excellent fit, finish and function.
If you're going to kick off waterfowl season, you may as well do it right. So, with that in mind, Web Managing Editor Shawn Skipper began his 2015 fall campaign by journeying to the Great White North with Franchi to put the hurtin' on the local bird population.
Associate Online Editor Paul Rackley got to take a crack at the new Franchi Instinct Over-Under Shotgun at the 2012 Media Day at the Range in Boulder City, Nev.
For 2020, Franchi introduces the Momentum Elite bolt-action rifle, featuring an advanced ergonomic stock, a Cerakote finish on the barrel and receiver, a Picatinny top rail and a muzzle brake.
The Franchi Intensity, in many ways, delivers on its name. It capitalizes on some of the industry’s most respected technologies to reliably harness the most powerful shotshell payloads, and it does so in a slim, attractive package that betrays its middle-of-the-road price point. Hard to argue with any scattergun that offers both versatility and value.
Franchi's Affinity line was a hit when it dropped a few years ago—so much so that it was an awarded a Golden Bullseye from our sister publication, American Rifleman. For 2017, the company decided it was time to take the Affinity to the next level, and as such it has announced a redesign.
