Does anyone know anything about the Franchi Affinity 12 gauge? I was thinking about this for duck season as my primary gun this year. Also, where do you guys get shot for reloading stuff that'll really knock them down? I want to get plenty of practice in before duck season so I can make better shots and save ammo. All thoughts appreciated, thanks so much.

I bought one in 20 ga and really like it for pheasants. Very light,points great, and so far hasn't jammed after approx. 500 rounds through it. Phil posted a review on this gun not too long ago.

Benelli is the parent company for franchi and stoeger. Their big name to fame is their inertia cycling system made famous by Benelli. I have a stoeger 2000 and like it for the most part but I have yet to see a real advantage the inertia system has over a gas operated auto loader.

I just bought one in December. I took a couple of geese with it during the late season, but to date I've only pulled the trigger three times so it's still very new. It's light and points well, and I was attracted to the inertia action from the standpoint of reliability. I was also attracted to the fact that you are purchasing a shotgun with Benelli features but not paying Benelli prices! So far, very happy with the purchase!
