Back when everyone thought that the pump action shotgun couldn_t be improved, the Benelli Nova Pump proved otherwise. Completely original and innovative, the 20-gauge or 12-gauge pump incorporates a polymer stock and lightweight receiver into a single unit for unsurpassed strength and weather resistance. Italian styling and high-tech ergonomics make the gun not only pleasing to look at, but a delight to hold and handle. Distinctive grooves on the pistol grip and forend in place of conventional checkering provides a positive gripping surface and complements the innovative engineering of the Nova Pump.With dual-action bars and rotary head locking lugs, the Nova 12-gauge shotgun and 20-gauge shotgun handle anything from target loads to 3-1/2" magnums. Available in Black Synthetic, and new finishes, and as a youth model, the Benelli Nova Pump is the most versatile pump action shotgun ever made.
