Is this old competition gun still relevant?
This video reviews the Franchi Barrage, a 1979 Italian competition shotgun acquired for £358. The presenter highlights its plain walnut stock, open pistol grip with palm swell, and a unique stepped rib with a red tram line. While information on the Barrage is scarce, it's identified as a sporting or trap model, though its quarter and three-quarter choke configuration is noted as less common for trap. The gun features mechanical triggers and a reliable, no-frills build, making it a shootable and potentially valuable option for those seeking quality at a lower price point.
