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.
Winchester’s SX4s are some of the best gas-operated semi-autos on the market, and the 20-gauge version is a welcome addition to the line. It’s durably built, offers a lot of sensible features, produces minimal recoil and is priced affordably.
