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!!!!!
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!!
Thomas thanks for the info on this shot gun....the instructions werent as clear as the Thomas method...been shooting auto loaders for a long time and it wouldn't go...its good to know all the tricks of every firearm. ..thanks again
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?
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?

Excellent tip sir. The gun would absolutely not assemble any other way. Using your guidance it fit like a glove. Thank you.
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!!
With lots of experience with guns there are always little “tricks” to assembly and disassembly. This has been very helpful. Thanks!
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.
Glad it helped!
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.
@@windyrun7979 I simply prefer the looks of wood furniture. Synthetic on a tactical looks appropriate.
@@seaskiff20 Thanks for your reply
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.
Thanks. Was having trouble before I saw this.
What a great video and absolutely the key. The instructions were certainly lacking and this makes it much easier.
Thank you! I couldn’t get the damn barrel on until I watch your trick!!!
Thank you! This was so much more helpful than the book.
Thanks for the vid Tommy. I struggled a little bit with this shotgun. It goes together different than my other Franchi. 😎
Glad I could help.
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
This was a lot of help. Thank you sir!
This man is an OG! Thanks for the review.
Thank you for the video! We were stuck following the Franchi instructions.
Thank ya Sir! That’s what I needed
You are spot on Sir, many thanx!!!

Thank you wise old man
Thank you for the help!
Nice job ol boy appreciate it!
Hopefully picking up an Affinity 3 Upland Elite very soon. Nice review!
Saved My day! Dropped my gun in the water and had to dry it out! Thank you Thomas!
Tried following the book and it wasn’t going together. Thanks for the video!
Thanks. That thing was giving me fits. 😂
Thank you so much
