butt stock for AL48

**mollybel** · 12-23-2003, 09:14 AM

I need help in obtaining a butt stock for a Franchi AL48 20ga. I have emailed Franchi several times and get no reply. My local gunsmith says 'good luck' in trying to find a replacement stock. Are obtaining parts a problem with Franchi? The current stock was cut for a youth, and now he needs a standard stock. Any help sure would be appreciated. Also, anyone know why Franchi wouldn't reply to an email?

mollybel - Try Brownells: Ph. 1-641-623-5401 or 1-800-741-0015 | Fx. 1-800-264-3068

Franchi is currently under the ownership of Berreta who have arranged to market Franchi through their Benelli USA division. Brownells is the principal distributor of parts for Benelli USA and their related products. Currently, Benelli is creating a support program for Franchi. Until the program is fully developed, Brownells will not carry Franchi parts as inventoried items. Franchi parts will be available on a special order basis until the stocking program is in effect.

When inquiring it is important that you are able to supply Brownells with the following information: Model number - example: 48AL, which is usually found on the left side receiver wall or on the barrel; serial number; gauge; chamber length.

Good Luck!
