Get a closer look at the Franchi Instinct LX, the latest addition to our #SundayGunday series.

Built on the inertia-driven system that harnesses recoil to operate the action, the new Franchi Affinity 3 and 3.5 Elite shotguns are fast, slim and reliable. Stocks are adjustable for drop and cast, and barrels feature a Cerakote finish, lengthened forcing cone for better pattern density and a TrueGlo fiber-optic front sight.

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.

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'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.

The Instinct features an aluminum receiver is fortified via a titanium insert on the breech face and a checkered forearm and Prince of Wales stock.
