Features

The Franchi Affinity 3.5 Waterfowl Elite 12‑Gauge, 26" is built for hunters who face unpredictable weather and need a shotgun that performs through rain, snow, and cold. Its Patriot Brown Cerakote barrel and receiver offer exceptional corrosion resistance, while the Mossy Oak Bottomland synthetic stock provides secure grip and concealment in marshes, timber, and open fields. Powered by Franchi’s clean, reliable Inertia‑Driven system, it cycles everything from 2¾" to heavy 3½" magnum shells with minimal maintenance. The chrome‑lined, vent‑rib 26" barrel, IC/M/F chokes, and included shim kit deliver adaptable patterning and a custom‑fit feel, and the TSA recoil pad cuts felt recoil by up to 50 percent—even with magnum loads. Oversized bolt controls, a beveled loading port, and a drilled‑and‑tapped receiver make operation smooth and glove‑friendly in harsh conditions.

At 6.9 lb with a 47.5" overall length, the Waterfowl Elite balances quick handling with the stability needed for fast follow‑ups on ducks and geese. A chrome bolt, removable trigger group, and optional stock counterweight add durability, easy maintenance, and customizable balance. Purpose‑built for demanding waterfowl hunters, this Affinity 3.5 variant delivers weatherproof construction, refined ergonomics, and dependable performance across the toughest hunts.
