Franchi's Instinct LX is our 2020 Shotgun of the Year.

Franchi's Affinity 3.5 is our 2019 Shotgun of the Year.

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.

Franchi has expanded its Affinity Elite to include a clean looking upland model.

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.
