Franchi Instinct L

Been looking at these online and like the way it looks but was wondering if someone has one or experience with one. Looking to replace a Weatherby Orion I sold that was used for skeet mostly. Dan.

Dan,
I don't have any experience with the Franchi Instinct L but my wife has an Affinity. It's a darn nice shotgun. Franchi is owned by Beretta and they make some very nice shotguns. I love my Beretta Silver Pigeon, it just feels great and points where you look. I would think the Franchi Instinct L would be the same.

I don’t know the model and not home to check-BUT. . . I bought a Franchi 20 gauge after repeated disappointing experiences with beretta. The 20 quickly became my daughter’s favorite. I use it when she isn’t with me. I like the weight, the wood is nice, the rounded grip is pleasing and the action once broken in was lively and strong. I just ordered a 16 gauge “side plate” version so she can keep hers and I’ll have my own. The best part is between me hunting chukars with it in true chukar country and her hunting ducks and pheasants and it hasn’t had cracked wood or stuck ejectors. I have not had to use Franchi customer service. I have had several makes and models and Franchi has been my favorite thus far-

Appears that the Franchi provides richly for your family.

Good info guys and pictures to boot. Appreciate the feedback. I believe a Franchi would serve me well. Thanks, Dan.
