Franchi AL-48

The Franchi 48 AL is an Italian semi-automatic shotgun designed by Luigi Franchi. It features a unique long-recoil operating system similar to the Browning Auto-5. The 48 AL uses an aluminum alloy receiver to reduce weight compared to steel-receiver shotguns. It is chambered in 12 gauge and feeds from a 4-round tubular magazine. The 48 AL was Franchi's classic semi-automatic shotgun for decades.
