Designed for plains, flooded timber, and wetlands, the Affinity 3 X Bottomland is the semi-auto built for migratory waterfowl hunting that combines concealment, durability, and immediate readiness. The Bottomland camo pattern, with its earthy tones and shadow-driven design, breaks up the shotgun’s outline in darker, denser environments, allowing it to merge naturally into woodlands, muddy banks, and still waters.
Rugged and reliable, it’s built to follow the hunter through the harshest conditions, maintaining a mount that is always natural, fast, and instinctive. Developed on the Evolved Ergonom-X platform, it enhances balance, handling, and comfort throughout the hunt.
Ergonomics have been further refined. The enlarged trigger guard, with a more squared profile, offers more room and better usability—even with gloves—while improving safety and control in every phase. The oversized bolt handle and extended bolt release make every action quicker and more intuitive, even without looking.
At the core of the experience is the TSA Gen 2 system, which not only reduces recoil progressively, but also introduces advanced fit customization. Thanks to the combination of recoil pads and spacers, it offers 9 different length-of-pull configurations, allowing the shotgun to adapt perfectly to the hunter’s build and shooting style. The result is a more natural mount, greater stability, and consistent control shot after shot.
The Affinity 3 X Bottomland is available in 12 and 20 gauge, with an orange fiber-optic front sight and a low-profile rib, with an optional step rib on selected barrel lengths.
Completing its character is the Zip Load System, delivering faster, smoother, and more intuitive loading and unloading, for a seamless hunting experience. Like every Franchi, it comes with a 7-year warranty on mechanical parts.
