Christmas present. 20ga. Do any of y'all have any experience with this gun? I held both the SX3 and the Affinity at Puglias the other day and liked both, as those two were around the upper end of what I can spend. What do y'all think? I've never had any experience with either. I'm leaning towards the Affinity because it's cheaper, Italian made by Benelli (my SBEII is a tank), and it swung better to me.

Two of the better offerings for their respective operating systems in that price range. Just choose whether you want gas or inertia. You will be happy with either

Got my son the franchi affinity 20 gauge youth.

He is nearly 2 full season in - it had a hiccup at the start but Franchise fixed it and it works like a charm. It operates very smoothly...just like a benelli.

I have the SX3 in 12 ga. I love it. Had the SX2 before the 3.
The Winchester is a gas gun, believe the Franchi in inertia. No experience with the Franchi.
Eta: I did have a Franchi 620, that was sweet as hell.

My son has a Franchi Affinti 12 gauge inertia. He loves it. If I am not mistaken, It is made on the same assembly line, by the same people with the same parts as the Benelli M2 that costs about $1300.00.
