Power should be an asset, never a liability: the Affinity 3.5 feels and handles like a smaller-gauge shotgun while offering the full capabilities of today's 3 1/2" shells. Together, their Inertia Driven○ system and TSA pad, which absorbs up to 50% of the recoil, translate into a pleasant shooting experience no matter the conditions. Handling is also optimized thanks to the slim forend profile made possible by the recoil spring being efficiently housed around the magazine tube. The stock is also trim and includes an internal balance weight that can be removed to customize weight-distribution. Shouldering and aiming the Affinity 3.5 is like pointing your finger — you will instantly know what "right" feels like.
