NorfolkAYA Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Looking to add a semi to my collection. Can't decide between the 2. Would like to hear off people that own either. Cheers Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exudate Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Franchi. Essentially a Benelli M2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remmy1100 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 franchi mate has just got one it shoots and handles well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimo22 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 I'm with Franchi to, got one last year to shoot steel carridges. First shoot on the season last evening and shot two teal for two shots. This morning shot a 38 out of 50 at clays and it shoots any cartridge I put through it. Would certainly recommend it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnytheboy Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Franchi, someone said it's an M2 it's actually better than an M2 if truth be told but M2 owners wouldn't admit that! The armsan shoots really flat and is really hard to get used to, mines had piles of problems and ended up back at the dealer although I read that others perform much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Franchi; very very undervalued guns in my opinion. Bought nephew a 620 as a young lad; should never have sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian North Wales Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Franchi all day long. Had a issue hitting targets with it to start with but after a few outings am starting to get real good with it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sako7mm Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 I do know a lad who has an Armsan 612 which has never missed a beat. But I'll be buying a Franchi before the season's out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny thomas Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 My boy has a franchi rapter don't know if it's similar to the affinity or not but it's a great gun Really soft to shoot and cycles lighter loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicktbub Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Bought the Armsan 612 for wildfowling ... cheap £295, hard as nails, good quality, easy to strip/clean, reliable, multi choke, 4 yr warranty and fires anything except 21gm loads.

Crumpler1991 Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Lyngs massingham has 612 in stock to look at also a black beretta al391 £450 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicktbub Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 The Armsan does shoot flat. use the included stock adjusters to alter angles to fit and sling the Armsan chokes, I use Beretta mobil 1\4 and 1\2 in mine, for the money unbeatable.

johnnytheboy Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I owned an armsan that how I know it's flat shooting, it was a pile of junk and got sent back as it had every fault under the sun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkAYA Posted September 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Went to Philip websters yesterday to handle one and I liked it, felt a bit short in the stock but that will easily be sorted. Basically a benelli m2. Just got to wait till pay day now 😁 *franchi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
