Putting the Franchi Affinity 3 together

[@poolematthew3163]

I never left a comment before now.....Just got this gun today and could NOT figure out what I was doing wrong to get it together. I'm old school and you nailed it perfectly. Thanks to your instruction (and trusting from one experienced hunter to another) I got it figured out. Many thanks my friend! Ready to go out and get me some doves!!!! Great instruction! Thank you again!!!!!

[@travisbarker2752]

Excellent tip sir. The gun would absolutely not assemble any other way. Using your guidance it fit like a glove. Thank you.

[@caspertoo]

Thomas you have no idea how frustrating it was for me when I put mine together. I bumbled my way into the solution. I wish I had found your video.

[@BradR89]

Thanks so much! I've put together countless shotguns but this one was giving me blood pressure issues trying to get the barrel and forend put on!!

[@wowbagger3505]

With lots of experience with guns there are always little “tricks” to assembly and disassembly. This has been very helpful. Thanks!

Excellent video in conjunction with my manual

I have a 20 I bought over 40 years ago,I. mostly hunted grouse and rabbits. Used a slug barrel. Best gun ever

[@flintrobinson980]

Thomas thanks! I’ve been sitting here for 30 min messing with and rereading the instructions over and over making sure I was doing this right.

[@thomastucker6696]

Glad it helped!

[@johnkalada5530]

What a great video and absolutely the key. The instructions were certainly lacking and this makes it much easier.

[@robertzavala7064]

Thank you for the video! We were stuck following the Franchi instructions.

My Affinity 3 walnut just came home with me. You are 100% accurate, follow the instructions = failure. You method worked perfectly. Thanks brother!

I'm looking at either a synthetic or a wood. Was wondering why you chose the wood.

[@seaskiff20]

@@windyrun7979 I simply prefer the looks of wood furniture. Synthetic on a tactical looks appropriate.

[@windyrun7979]

@@seaskiff20 Thanks for your reply

[@tonycaprioli350]

Thank you! I couldn’t get the damn barrel on until I watch your trick!!!

[@jlwillis74]

Great little tidbit of info Mr. Thomas! While I finally had to tell the little guy at BPS to ‘STOP’ before he marred my gun up! I had already checked this out and the gun went together like a breeze. Thanks again and happy hunting!!

[@roblacitinola866]

Thanks for the vid Tommy. I struggled a little bit with this shotgun. It goes together different than my other Franchi. 😎

[@jasonray1705]

Thank ya Sir! That’s what I needed

[@markm9232]

Thanks. That thing was giving me fits. 😂

[@MajidKhan-zd2gn]

Tried following the book and it wasn’t going together. Thanks for the video!

hello. i am looking at buying this gun in a left handed model. i hunter deer as long as ducks. any idea if i can switch barrels from a riffled barrel to a bird barrel. i know i will have to buy the barrel separate but does this gun have that feature of changing barrels?

[@fenrirunshackled4319]

Hi, I bought one of these and it sticks going to about the lass inch and a half of barrel going into the reciever even with your method. Do you have any idea what could he causing it to stick right there?
