Our feature-packed Momentum and Momentum Elite bolt-action rifles are optimized to deliver outstanding shooting comfort, consistent accuracy and unwavering reliability. Crisp trigger pull and ultra-smooth bolt operation team with best-in-class ergonomics to make Franchi rifles an extension of your body. Experience the level of performance and enjoyment a Franchi rifle offers and you’ll understand why Franchi owners are eager to share their experiences with others.
There are days when the birds are flying in close and fast, and days when the only shots you’ll have are long ones. Times when gobblers come in two or three at a time, and times when you’ll call for hours with no response. Come what may, the one thing you’ll know without a doubt is that your Franchi Affinity 3.5 shotgun is up to the task. Built to withstand the rigors of any hunt, the Affinity 3.5 has best-in-class features to make your hunt both memorable and enjoyable. Purposefully engineered ergonomics and an adjustable custom-fit stock lend themselves to superior pointability, while our TSA recoil pad reduces felt recoil up to 50 percent, even with heavy magnum loads. Oversized bolt controls and a beveled loading port make operating and loading the shotgun easier and more reliable, even when wearing gloves. Shoulder an Affinity 3.5 at your local Franchi dealer and you’ll immediately see why we say Franchi shotguns just feel right.
Hunting creates pictures in your mind you’ll cherish for a lifetime. The splendor of color just before the sun peeks over the eastern horizon. The smell of a fresh morning in the woods. The sounds of a wilderness coming to life, and the majesty of a trophy buck stepping into view. Then there’s the moment of truth. You aim at the vitals and move your finger to the trigger. Trust that moment to a Franchi Momentum or Momentum Elite rifle. Best-in-class ergonomics and our Relia Trigger system allow for extreme steadiness and a crisp trigger break, while the MOA guarantee means your shot goes where you aim. Should a follow-up shot be needed, our Relia Bolt system and recoil-reduction work in tandem to maximize its efficiency. When the pairing of exceptional comfort and performance is what you’re after, look for the Momentum or Momentum Elite line of rifles.
Sometimes the hunt doesn’t go as planned and you don’t hear the iconic sound of flushing wings until late in the day.
