FRANCHI, HUNTING AND SPORTS GUNS: There are now many awards that Franchi products and their users have won and we want to share with you these successes.
Let's start with the United States, undoubtedly the most avant-garde country in the hunting scene and where hunters are by far the most numerous. A few months after their launch, the over-under and semiautomatic have obtained two important Awards: The Instinct SL, the American version of "our Falconet Pro", obtained the award for best shotgun presented at the Shot Show, by the prestigious magazine "Sporting Classics ".
The Affinity, in its entire range, won the “Editor's choice” award as the best semi-automatic shotgun for Outdoor Life magazine, the most widely read across the ocean. In France, the choice of the magazine “Le chasseur Francais” awarded the Affinity cal. 20 in wood. It is possible to read the review in the July 2012 issue of the magazine.
We come instead to natural persons. Roberto Zallocco, who hunts with the Affinity 20, won, with the Italian national team, the European championship in universal pit teams held in Lonato, while Antonio Vitiello ranked third in the Italian inter-force team and individual championships. Antonio hunts with an Affinity cal. 12.

To conclude an “amarcord” award: the Franchi 48 AL, more famous as the “Franchi a mollone”, was the only shotgun in history to have won a prestigious award dedicated to design: the Compasso d'Oro. Are you wondering why Amarcord? Well the award was won in 1954.
