When and where to hunt, what gear to bring and what ammo to use. These are among many choices hunters make before the season begins. But one thing we don't get to choose is the weather. That's why Franchi made these new versions of its proven Affinity 3.5 shotgun to withstand moisture, rain, snow and ice using tough, weather-resistant Cerakote® finishes. These shotguns have best-in-class features to make your hunt both memorable and enjoyable, no matter what the weather is doing. Purposefully engineered ergonomics and adjustable, custom-fit stocks team to deliver superior pointability, while TSA recoil pads reduce felt recoil up to 50 percent - even with heavy magnum loads. Oversized bolt controls and beveled loading ports make operation and loading easier when wearing gloves. Shoulder an Affinity 3.5, and you'll immediately see why serious hunters choose Franchi shotguns -they just feel right.
