I need Benelli info O wise ones.
« on: April 08, 2012, 05:27:27 PM »
I just purchased a used Benelli Nova in 12ga.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the difference between the Nova, and the "Super Nova"?

Thanks for any help.

The Super Nove has a removable stock the Nova does not.  The super nova can take a pistol grip.
other than that they are really the same, share the same barrels.
I have had a Nova for quite a few years and have a few thousand rounds through it shooting sporting clays, trap, skeet and hunting.  Not to mention the one my Step mother has in NC she won at a DU dinner I use when there.
Great gun.
After the last trap shoot I broke the whole gun down and cleaned, oiled and greased the gun.  After 8+ years of little care it still looks brand new.
I bought it as a care free duck gun. 
I like the plastic stock, as we were hunting ducks in a salt marsh that had other guns rusting in a few hours.  I like the ability to take the 3.5" shells for geese.  I like the sling swivels and a sling goes on it for transport in or out of the blind or field.

The Super Nova comes with shims to adjust the comb and cast of the stock.
The difference between people who do stuff and people who don't do stuff is that the people who do stuff do stuff.
