L. Franchi S.P.A - Brescia Made in Italy.

I don't have too much information on this as I just got it -- havent had the time to fully research it. - I'm not much of a shotgun guy.. yet!

It's got a stock, but for picture sake It's off. just finished cleaning it.

I added a precision laser sight & light to the extender..

So far I'm pretty happy! not sure what to do next!

Sweet! Never seen one of those; looks pretty slick. I like the light/laser mount.
 
I'm pleased to see they put a pedestal under the bead, that is a beef I have with Mossberg and a few others, that they mount the beads right onto the barrels and the guns shoot high.

I think you will find your gun more shootable with the butt stock in place, It might be worth the effort of having it fitted for you. As it sits, your shotgun will be a good gun for use out to 25 yards with slugs, but a ghost ring rear sight and post front sight would make it a powerful rifle out to 100 yards, or slightly better. Just depends what you want to do with it. For now go shooting, then you will be able to determine if there are any short comings you want to address.

Thanks for the info. I won't be hunting with it, just range shooting at most.. It looks pretty cool without the stock :redface: I might leave it like this.

No one would use pistol grips if not for the LCF:D. Awesome rig, I like Franchi.

Laser mounts. Is that legal? Cool to have on your gun but not for legal practical use.

You're right, laser's are not for legal practical use. Same as bayonet lugs and pistol grips.:rolleyes:

Sweet shotgun. How long can you stand firing it with just a pistol grip?
 
I just thought it was illegal to use lasers for hunting purposes. That would be practical use I guess. But that is assuming that this firearm is used for hunting. But I know... this may not be the case.

well, It's a wrist killer, what can I say?

Don't go home to the wife,gf,mom,teacher,etc trying to explain why your right hand wrist hurts so much after the weekend. :redface:

at least with the laser you "kinda" know where you're aiming. Without it, It's a a lot hard to be accurate.

Like some guys have said, pistol grip is only good for a few yards.
It's basically useless, unless the zombies are in your house. :cool:
