firstcoueswas80 how do you like the Franchi? Everybody I talked to say they kick but they look so good I have thought about buying one anyway....
I love that Franchi! I got it in trade a few years ago for super cheap. The wood on it is amazing, and I can actually shoot the damn thing! I shoot instinctive, so I never use the bead but I can still hit chit! It fits me like a glove, which is surprising as I am 6'3 280 lbs. I have never notice it kicking like a mule. My 870 knocks me pretty good with 3" #4 buck shot for coyotes and jack rabbits.
I love my Franchi! Compared to a 20 guage, it is a little heavy but it performs flawlessly and sits me well!
