[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 230065, member: 412"] That's true, however, the Franchi spring isn't anywhere near as robust as the A-5 and it's copies. The Franchi spring is 2-3 strands of metal twisted or braided together and weak enough to cause the same action slowing that's caused when a Benelli's ass-spring clogs. An A-5 action spring rivals the robustness of the inertia spring housed within a Benelli's bolt. A more stout spring either up it's ass or over the magazine tube would go a long way towards reducing recoil as well. In fact, if one could get the marketing dipshits who've never held a shotgun let alone hunted with or cleaned one, most of them would come with a "target/light" spring and a "field" spring. The 3.5" 12ga versions could even have a "magnum" spring. Swapping springs under the forearm, over the mag-tube would be a <1min swap, would save the owner's shoulder and cheek as well as saving the action from beating itself to death. [/QUOTE]
