Does anyone have or shoot one of these, seems like it’s a beneli m1 super 90 in franchi clothing..
I did a few reviews, seems like a decent shotty, just thought I’d ask the folks that have them would you buy it again?

I have an Intensity, which is how Franchi branded their 3.5" model Affinity, before they gave up and just called both models Affinity. I also had an Affinity Catalyst (short person's model), that I bought for my wife. I really like the shotgun and find mine to be reliable, soft shooting and easy to clean.

I really like the Franchi Affinity I bought my wife. Very light weight, light recoil, functions perfectly

Had I not gotten a smoking deal on a beretta that was what I was going to buy. One i shot was great. Cycled light loads and everything. Kinda wish I’d just bought it instead of my stubborn beretta.

This all good to hear, I bought one the other day after handling it I really like it, slick action, cycles like butter, it points amazingly well and the rib and sight picture is the best I’ve ever picked up in a store off the shelf.
Seems like a great shotgun for the price point.. I am not gonna spend what it takes to buy a SBE or a vinchi or what it takes to buy a over under. I enjoy shotgun but it’s definitely a hunting gun for me with the occasional fun shooting.

Yep, it's one of the few that I would never sell. You are welcome to shoot mine at some clays one day if you want to meet and spring for a round

I ran 100 rounds through it today, and I had one hiccup which I think was self induced because I dropped the shells in the mud and didn’t completely whips them down. I think it’s the best for the price you can buy after today!

I was there right next to tabjlr all day and saw this shotgun break 77 out of 100 tough sporting clay birds with Remington Sure Shot Dove and Quail loads.

I had a ball, and still can’t wrap my head around the fact we won that shoot... unbelievable!
