I've trained with that shotgun. The trigger guard is shaped that way for a reason. Put the gun on its back, push the lifter down (it will stay down), place two shell in the loading port and shove both in. The shape of the trigger guard allows space to do that. With a 4-round tube, you can go from an empty gun to fully loaded in seconds.
Glad to see someone shares my enthusiasm for the Nova! I'm 52 and when I say I've shot pumps as much as any other person my age, you can believe it. But the longer I have my benelli novas the more I appreciate and like them.
You forgot what really makes it stand out against the 590/500 and 870. The button on the pump lets you eject what’s in the chamber without loading the next round. Perfect for unloading to cross an obstacle or to change a load as needed. Great feature
@@20mfranklin Mesa tactical makes a very solid product.I was using a neoprene one but it stretched out over time.The Mesa one has a rail section on top,if that's your thing.I prefer the ghost rings.I paid about 80 for mine.I don't know what they run post Covid price.
Lol, special because of the need for special dental work after the shot? I have not shot a lot of 3.5 inch 12 guage . and none out of this gun. But man they are just savage in the recoil department.
My Grandfather (RIP) gave me a NOVA in 20 gauge for my 14th birthday. I've taken hundreds of geese and duck with it. It now belongs to my wife and it's her home defense long gun. It is a fantastic shotgun.
Got mine in the no longer made color dessert camo. Added side saddles an extension sling and a light. I own and have owned damn near every shotgun brand and my supernova tactical is my favorite.
My cousin had a Benelli shotgun and after he passed, his dad (my uncle), gave it to me. Needless to say, it’s going to stay with me for a while and hopefully be a family heirloom.
This was my buddies first shotgun that I got to put a lot of rounds threw. It's a great gun that is made for the elements. It's a little long but that can be changed. The feel is more of plastic then metal. It shoots great and is smooth to operate. Overall it's a great outdoor shotgun.
I've been looking at good shotguns to get when I turn 18 next year and well considering I live in California, and I have limited options of choices and since I'm not gonna be 21 well ima have even less choices. So far my choices are Mossberg 500, Remington 870 and now the Super Nova.
I have searched all over online for a sling for this model of the Benelli Super Nova that will fit through the molded plastic slot on the stock-Do you have any recommendations for one that's 1" wide? Its a wonderful shotgun, but I can not find a sling for it.
@scottsnitzer9733 I unfortunately fell out of love with mine for a variety of reasons. I still think it's a smooth shot gun, but one of the things I hated was because of the way the pump is designed, super hard to mount velcros shotgun cards. I eventually sold it and got a Beretta A300 UP, which I absolutely love. There's so little aftermarket support for the Supernova
Had mine for a few years. Added an extended magazine tube, and that's it. Love this shotgun; fun to shoot and has been absolutely reliable. It's what's next to the bed for things that go bump in the night.
Dude you literally took the words out of my head. When you kept saying it was hard to tell which you enjoyed more. I was going to say it's exactly like an auto vs manual. Are auto's faster now? Yeah, but driving a manual just connects you with the car exactly the way you were talking about the m4 and supernova! Perfect comparison bro!!
I ordered my first shotgun online last night by the benelli name, price, tactical. Came here to check video reviews. Loved the excitement over this shotgun. New subscriber nw Louisiana.
😂🤣 a Benelli Nova has been faithfully by my side since I was 18. Just realized how long that's been (20 years now)-- the Super Novas are a great upgrade to the original design!
Loved mine straight out of the box. Added the messa tactical rail with side saddle, 2 round extension, extension nut, barrel clamp, Teflon follower and spring. Runs even smoother with the Teflon
I’m ordering mine today! May I ask, where did you find your extension mag and other upgrade parts? I’m on Benelli’ website and don’t see much for the SuperNova tactical Pump. thanks in advance!

I came here to see a review on this specific gun, needless to say your enthusiasm easily convinced me what I was thinking of doing is the 100% right choice.
This shotgun was an Xmas gift to me several years back. Colion, Benelli does make several different super soft after market gel butt pads. I shortened mine with a 1/2" thick one which shortened the length of pull and reduced the felt recoil. I also got the after market Benelli comfort tech stock and two round extension magazine. "Lets go Brandon"
@@jasoncastle4818 Benelli does make 20-ga Super Nova shotguns. Like all Super Novas you can use 2¾" to 3½" shells. Remember that 20ga shotguns don't have the variety of shell types a 12ga has. Plus, 20ga shells may be harder to find. Specifically those non lethal type shells. Other than that a 20ga has all the standard shell types available, buck shot, bird shot & slugs.
Yeah so the Benelli Nova has been the greatest bird gun me or family members have ever used. My brother has dropped in the water then picked it up and fired without issue, he never cleans the thing and it just runs, hell he's used it as a boat paddle before. Just made a trip to ND to goose and duck hunt, left his $1200 semi at home cause it has frozen shut before, he took the benelli and had zero issues. I really gotta get me one one of these days BTW trigger guard is so weird cause it has plenty of space for a heavily gloved finger to fit inside there.
Thanks for this video. I got two semi-auto shotguns. I just got my first Benelli Supernova and my first pump shotgun. I believe I made the right choice. I took out the plug. I added a 3 shot extension mag. now I get 8+1(2 3/4") 6+1( 3") 4+1(3 1/2") shells. I'm thinking of getting a 4 shot ext. mag......This Benelli Supernova is chambered for 3 1/2" shells. Great video thanks Robert.....

This is my first pump shotgun. I love it. My first two firearm purchases are actually the same as you too. SR9 and SR40. Glad to see you have good taste :)
Rob, Excellent❗️I must say you have good taste yourself. Thank you. My first pump was as a rookie cop…. As a small woman, but not a weak one, the dept was using old ( in 1982) Remingtons. The stocks were so long I went from a 98-100% shooter to a barely 60%!! so I bought a pump Mossburg and cut almost 3 inches off the stock,and put a really good rubber butt on it. God I loved that weapon! Back to my normal scores I went Then all the women and a few of the smaller men borrowed it and improved their scores too! I’m sorry to say if the ladies weren’t taught to use a shotgun before they got there, the women didn’t get much attention because they were office workers and not road deputies . Made it my goal from then on to help them…and I did. I was lucky enough over the years to help them with the huge wheel guns they were given, to introducing them to semi automatics too. I felt awesome that they trusted me and was honored to help them. My thanks to the sheriff, who had faith in me too. Who knew he would be fond of a young, not so outgoing (then), but a Dam Yankee for sure, single mom? That man gave me the opportunity to have a great career with lots of excitement!!!! May you rest in peace, sheriff. “Peanut” (the nickname he gave me)
I remember when I had this bad boy. The action was so goddamn smooth. I nicknamed it Mr. Blasty since it is a badass fucking gun. It has a presence with that deep black color and sharp trigger guard. Everyone I showed it to thought it was cool. I loved that I could fire 3.5” Lightfield slugs with over 4500 ft lb out of an 18 inch defense shotgun. The action spits out the shells with force. Such a badass gun, I’m going to buy it again.

I have one and love it. It shoots 2 3/4, 3 and 3 1/2 inch shells and is comfortable to shoulder. Very versatile The careless whisper bit had me rolling 😂😂😂
I got a mossberg 335 and love the fact it'll take everything from 2 3/4 all the way up to 3 1/2 inch shells and the benelli m3 you can pump for low recoil shells and semi auto as well
For how little I get to shotguns, the Nova tactical has been an excellent fun choice for me. I can’t justify the cost of an M4 with how little it would get used. I mean I’m going to use something else for home defense anyway.
I've been shooting 3gun with a Comfortech stocked Supernova for years and it is the most fun shotgun I have ever picked up. Just watching this makes me want to take mine out to the range and knock some steel over.
Only a snapshot in time...one year...I worked the gun counter at Cabela's and out of all the pump-action shotguns we sold, this one came back the most. Either for a trade-in or for maintenance. Granted, we also sold a full Benelli line and all associated shotguns...Beretta, Franchi, and Stoeger (ew). Browning as well but I never seen one of those come back. Anyway, Novas and SuperNovas were always on discount and always had some kind of issue. The ones that run well, run REAL well, but the rest...meh. My pump of choice...870 Police Magnum. Weighs a ton and works as a bat, window breaker, 1/2 ton jack, drywall removal tool, teenage daughter suiter deterrent and can be used to test those rattle can projects BEFORE you goober up your AR.
Love my SuperNova, I put a +2 tube extension on mine and it accepts 3.5" shells. I used it sauirrel hunting before and it did better than expected with an 18.5" barrel. It was my first Benelli but since decided to get an M2 which I enjoy also.
I prefer the regular Nova to the super, but I think they don’t get enough attention. The 2 things that sell me on either is the ability to take any shot shell, and the enormous loading port. I used to be a staunch 870 guy, but you can’t load one nearly as fast.
I own 3 of the Benelli Supernova 3.5" Chamber + you get the Shell stop on the Pump you can't go wrong with these it's a 3.5" Chamber but you can press the button on the pump action lock your slug or buckshot in the tube load a round you want then go back to what's in your tube without having to rack out every round first
A Nordic magazine extension would do wonders. I owned a Benelli Nova some years ago. Good shotgun. Colion a tip for increasing your rate of fire. Practice cycling the action as soon as you squeeze the trigger. As you let off the trigger you should be cycling the action. I use practice rounds for this. With practice you can really increase your rate of fire. Nearly as fast as a semi auto. I’ve a Mossberg 590 SP 20” barrel 8+1 capacity and it will go through 9 rounds pretty quickly using this method. With use the action in this Mossberg has become buttery smooth.
This is the best pump on the market IMO. In Europe this is the pump gun of choice for competition, and they have proofed this thing to the max over the years. Its not as popular in the US compared to the 590/870, but its much more refined vs the 590, and the quality has been much more consistent over the years vs the 870.

You cant get them new anymore but if you want a really smooth operating shotgun the old Winchester 1300 is amazing, they even have a recoil assisted pump. (including the new winchester sxp)
@@silverback7659 yeah those old shotguns are super smooth, ive got a highstandard 4011 that the pimp slides all the way down if you hokd it vertically and hit the bolt release

Mine was affordable but wasn't Rem 870 or Moss 500 affordable nor as reliable as either.Had to send it to Benelli to fix,I'm assuming the extractor.Works great now.Hate that there isn't alot of aftermarket/customization for it.I love the ghost rings on mine,the magazine disconnect feature,and the action and smooth cycling. Absolutely love the fact it shoots 3 1/2 inch shells.
Got a Benelli Nova 12ga several years ago for Christmas and it's by far my favorite shotgun I've shot. Tbh, i like it better than my buddy's Browning A5. The minimal recoil is the best part. I just wish mine was semi-auto instead of pump, for skeet shooting, but i love it still
save the $300 and just get a maverick 88. Literally just a less featured 590 for $200 you cannot go wrong. Love mine for anything, clays, hunting, fun at the range. Shorter barrel for home defense and uses the same mossberg parts if u wanna upgrade.
I don't know I think I'll stay with my M4. I have an old Remington 870 I truly cannot imagine anything being smoother than that shotgun once again a Great Entertaining and informative video.
Thanks for your videos. A firearms channel I can trust. And I understand falling in love with a gun when everything about it is right and you feel you can always count on it. Let’s go Brandon!
You need the Nordic mag extension. Love my novas had them for a decade. The fedarm pump gun made in turkey is awsome for the money its a 870 clone. Benelli is a Tristar cobra finished in Italy.
I had wanted a pump action shotgun since my early 90s Benelli M1 Super90 Defender can balk on lighter loads. I'm loving my SuperNova now, and I can use cheap(er) field loads with it!
I've trained with that shotgun. The trigger guard is shaped that way for a reason. Put the gun on its back, push the lifter down (it will stay down), place two shell in the loading port and shove both in. The shape of the trigger guard allows space to do that.

this is the type of skill i aspire to have
They got a supernova tactical model that comes with collapsible stock and 7rd tube it cost $650
would you go nordic arms or GGG for a mag extension and woud you do 2 or 3 round tube? the 3 is temting....7 plus 1 i like very much
Glad to see someone shares my enthusiasm for the Nova! I'm 52 and when I say I've shot pumps as much as any other person my age, you can believe it. But the longer I have my benelli novas the more I appreciate and like them.
And btw you did about as good a job of showing how fun it is to run a good pump as cold have been done man. Excellent work
I love that he loves what he is doing. Firing a gun makes him happy.

Practice cycling the action as soon as you squeeze the trigger. As you let off the trigger you should be cycling the action. I use practice rounds for this. With practice you can really increase your rate of fire. Nearly as fast as a semi auto. I’ve a Mossberg 590 SP 20” barrel 8+1 capacity and it will go through 9 rounds pretty quickly using this method. With use the action in this Mossberg has become buttery smooth.
I have one....never put one round thru it! Love this video, makes me feel good about my purchase!
I have the waterfowl version and shot skeet a lot and would regularly out run semi autos and over unders. Love it
This is the best pump on the market IMO. In Europe this is the pump gun of choice for competition, and they have proofed this thing to the max over the years. Its not as popular in the US compared to the 590/870, but its much more refined vs the 590, and the quality has been much more consistent over the years vs the 870.
Hello, I have searched all over online for a sling for this model of the Benelli Super Nova that will fit through the molded plastic slot on the stock-Do you have any recommendations for one that's 1" wide? Its a wonderful shotgun, but I can not find a sling for it.
You cant get them new anymore but if you want a really smooth operating shotgun the old Winchester 1300 is amazing, they even have a recoil assisted pump. (including the new winchester sxp)
Winchester 1300 Defender is an excellent pump shotgun. ☯️🎩♠️🏁
@@silverback7659 yeah those old shotguns are super smooth, ive got a highstandard 4011 that the pimp slides all the way down if you hokd it vertically and hit the bolt release
I just ordered this today. Cannot wait to get it this weekend.
I’ve had a Nova for years, it’s my go to shotgun.

Mine was affordable but wasn't Rem 870 or Moss 500 affordable nor as reliable as either.Had to send it to Benelli to fix,I'm assuming the extractor.Works great now.Hate that there isn't alot of aftermarket/customization for it.I love the ghost rings on mine,the magazine disconnect feature,and the action and smooth cycling. Absolutely love the fact it shoots 3 1/2 inch shells.
That extended pump grip is a great feature, if they add an adjustable stock that could be a great option for smaller people due to arm length.
The one time Counter Strike is realistic, the Supernova being cheap asf
Underrated statement
B22
Best shotties out there for the money
how much is itM
?
Got a Benelli Nova 12ga several years ago for Christmas and it's by far my favorite shotgun I've shot. Tbh, i like it better than my buddy's Browning A5. The minimal recoil is the best part. I just wish mine was semi-auto instead of pump, for skeet shooting, but i love it still
Love that distinctive fixed stock design remains the same with M1 and m2 and so on
It makes me miss the good old days playing CS:GO with the bois.
Gotta Love the shotguns ... reliability 💯
I have a Nova. Great for the birds, skeet, and trap. A nice partner for my Wingmaster.
save the $300 and just get a maverick 88. Literally just a less featured 590 for $200 you cannot go wrong. Love mine for anything, clays, hunting, fun at the range. Shorter barrel for home defense and uses the same mossberg parts if u wanna upgrade.
Your Careless Whisper montage had me in tears!!! 🤣🤣🤣. It was enjoyable watching you have so much fun… you were giddy!
I was kind of expecting a Maverick 88 from the mobile notification I got.
I got a Nova a few months ago. It was what was available at the time. I'm happy with it.
I lost it at the "Careless Whisper" segment.
Wonderful showcase of a sexy shotgun, Colion.
Your on point as usual. Keep it up.
The Moss 590 is the only pump shoty imho
Just got one of these for Christmas. Really excited to get to shooting. It’s my first firearm!
Got mine a couple of months ago for $599. Identical to this one...pistol grip with ghost ring sight. Outstanding shotgun.
I like the analogy of pump compared to a manual transmission. Never thought of it like that but it makes perfect sense. I think I’m gonna borrow that.
I’ve had it for many years and it’s the best shotgun ever in my opinion in the price range.
I don't know I think I'll stay with my M4. I have an old Remington 870 I truly cannot imagine anything being smoother than that shotgun once again a Great Entertaining and informative video.
Thanks Colion! I just bought a supernova today. I’m really looking forward to checking it out myself.
This was my first shotgun. The thing can be completely customized. Love it
Landing in Houston dec6th moving from Canada super happy can’t wait.
the shakeweight killed me 😫😅😅😂😂
That's my go to hunting shotgun, also they can use 3 1/2 inch shells. In case you really hate your shoulder.
I know I’m a little late to the game, but I just got the supernova and the 19 X
My first shotgun 15 years ago. Love it
Love the comparison to manual transmission vs auto! Feel the same way.
Awesome man, love the review! Got a supernova myself, loveit love it love it . Also; what an amazing range you got!! Greetz from sweden
Thanks for your videos. A firearms channel I can trust. And I understand falling in love with a gun when everything about it is right and you feel you can always count on it. Let’s go Brandon!
Seeing Colion stroking his shotgun is really something.
2:30 i think that might deserve A "Pause"🤔😝 only thing that carrying it with pass through, is that it's a shotty LOL 🤣
J/J my brother
😉
Now I'm going to sing "Never going to love again" in my head.....all day long now. Thanks. LoL.
I've been waiting for this video for a while now. And I'm excited for it.
2:22 .I can't take a pump action shotgun seriously after seeing that 🤣🤣
That does sound like a particularly satisfying pump.
You need the Nordic mag extension. Love my novas had them for a decade. The fedarm pump gun made in turkey is awsome for the money its a 870 clone. Benelli is a Tristar cobra finished in Italy.
I'm reall digging your shirt bruh.....LET'S GO BRANDON
Bro.....I Love your goofiness and honesty!! I actually own this Beautiful Super Nova myself and it's such a joy to throw down some rounds!!😂😊
I had wanted a pump action shotgun since my early 90s Benelli M1 Super90 Defender can balk on lighter loads. I'm loving my SuperNova now, and I can use cheap(er) field loads with it!
Love the “ Careless Whisper” clip. 😂
Good to see you with a shotgun. My only 12 gauge is the Winchester 1200 pump shotgun. Cycling the action seems to come naturally between shots.
Bro!!! 😂😂 swear I been looking at these for weeks!!
