Franchi Affinity 3
UCH as I love bench-made guns, occasionally it is fun to put something different through its paces. Not just machine made – some great guns are made by machine now – but a gun that has no pretensions of being anything other than a shooting engine. Such a gun is the Franchi Affinity 3, an inertia-operated, 3in-chambered, high-performance, steel-proofed semiautomatic, weighing about 7lb, from GMK. It is built on a Benelli-type action. The latter firm has been owned by Beretta since 1983, and Franchi itself operates as a separate brand headquartered within the Benelli facility at Ubino, Central Italy.
