Newest Shotty..new Benelli Fanboy

Featured Replies

Well it's finally here after a bit of a search...Thanks to Steve at Monmouth Arms for transferring it for me..it's a Benelli SuperNova Tactical...was looking for a HD Shotty and it narrowed it down to Rem 870, Mossy 500/590 and the Benelli..after careful consideration I decided on this gun( both the Rem and Mossy are great guns BTW).. What sold me was the price ($460.00 shipped from TX), pistol grip stock with recoil pad and sling mount, safety position, polymer coating on receiver for durability and the ghost sight system..and the overall look on it...Benelli's 10 year warranty also didn't hurt..

Love the overall look...handles like an AR..albeit a bit longer lol..pistol grip had rubberized texture

Smooth as a baby's rear cycling..very easy takedown and cleaning..plus a bit of Italian pride here

Ghost ring sights...fully adjustable rear

Foreend is very comfortable...that button is used when you want to open the action without bringing a round out of the tube..good for changing ammo type on the go..

 

Extremely happy and impressed with overall package..fit and finish looks to be excellent..function is smooth and easy..haven't fired it yet but that will change this week..Officially on the Benelli bandwagon..

 

P.s got this from Champion Firearms ( www.championfirearms.com ) in Texas . They were one of a very few shops that had this in stock and at a much cheaper price than others. I submitted the order and had a UPS tracking number 2 hours later..and they aren't afraid to ship to NJ..check em out

Socom in 3...2...1....

those M4's are freeking sweet..just didn't have the coin for it..

Sweet shotty, dude! I've been looking for one of these for quite some time now... but nobody has had them in stock.. and prices on GB were ridiculous.  I'll have to take a look and see if Champion still has any!

Good luck with it and hope it brings you lots of fun times at the range!

Thanks Tony...Champion told me I got the last one but they may have gotten more...You can email them at [email protected] ...locally(may be a hike for you) I spoke with L&H in Wall township and Casos in Jersey City...LH said they've had them on order for a while..no ETA.. ...Casos said they should have them in early September..and yeah the ones on gunbroker were priced out of reality...plus add in $35.00 shipping and 3% credit card fees...no thanks....Good luck in the search...it's worth the wait IMHO..

Congrats, they are awesome pumps

I have an M2 field and it is fantastic.

GRAZIE SIGNORE...trust me I really wanted to break this bad boy in at the shoot but I was away at a wedding all weekend...really trying to make the next one...now since youre a Benelli guy what should be my first two add ons..I was thinking Nordic comp or Briley mag extension and Mesa side saddle/top rail...

Great choice - I have the same but with the open rifle sights as I prefer those over the ghost ring...paid under $500 out the door for mine in June of '12...

 

I will be buying another Supernova...probably a 24"...

 

I have a Nordic +2, mag clamp, and follower in mine.  Been 100% and well worth spending money on...

 

Ramsey outdoors in Ledgewood had one Supernova tactical with ghost rings at $509 last I was there a week ago...forced my friend to pick up the other one they had...  Pretty sure I also saw one at RTSP a week ago too, but not sure of price...

nice!... I'm probably going with Nordic comp extension..which mag clamp are you running.

The +2, mag clamp, and follower are all Nordic Components....my future Supernova will also get those parts...  I believe I got them from Cactus Tactical...

 

If you look on Benelli's website at the M2 3-gun, it sure looks exactly like the Nordic mag clamp and mag tube extension on there...that says something to me...  I had the Nordic components waiting for me before I even had the gun in my hands...

 

Something else to look into - Benelli makes night sight inserts for the ghost rings if you plan to use this for HD.

I have those tritium sights on my M4, they are sweet. Mepros makes them for Benelli, (Benelli packaging with Mepros wording on package as well)... and cheaper ($85). Same ones at Mepros are a lot more. Go fig.... I swear, that gun with the ghost rings is like having auto-targetting. The thing never misses the target and with low recoil, the follow up shots are amazing. I never felt that in any shotgun I had...

Low recoil what are you shooting out if it? I popped some 3 inch magnum 00 buck and its kicks like a mule and sounds like a cannon

I assume bhunted is talking about low recoil HD loads or typical low-brass birdshot loads...

 

The inability to put the tritium inserts on the open rifle sights is the only thing I don't like about my gun.  I did my own low-tech night sights instead...

PM'd ya with a question about the barrel clamp

No birdshot.... But all types of loads.. 00 buck...etc... Buckshot, slugs, etc. mags had a lil kick... Was still not bad. Maybe my M4 handles it better? But I could have shot it all day w/o a complaint...:)

The only loads I've not wanted to shoot a lot of are 3 1/2" magnums...I expected the heavier duty loads to kick more than they do...and I find it a very comfortable gun to shoot...  Friends often seem to be unable to handle as many rounds as I do...I may just have more 'padding' on me than them?

 

Nonetheless, I think my Supernova may be my favorite gun...

Finally got around to breaking it in today at CJ and all I can say is it shoots as good as it looks..I mixed in some slugs..low recoil 00B and some multi purpose shot...functioned flawlessly and recoil d was not as much as I thought it would be..ghost sights were dead on right out of the box (at 15 yards)....I've think I found a keeper here...

Just wanted to throw this out there... I am also a big fan of Benelli ... amazing guns.  I had a Supernova for a few months.  AMAZINGLY Sexy smooth gun.  I had and have quit drinking, I just hit 3 years without a sip.  Long story but I have never felt healthier.  I had started quitting early 2010 and had March 17th, St Patrick's Day, as a huge day for me.  St Patrick's Day (And Parade Day of course) is my favorite days of the year.  Me and my boys have had *LEGENDARY* days in the past... since I had stopped drinking and would be staying in that night, I knew I had the opportunity to go buy me a new toy because I'd be saving several hundred  bucks easy.

 

At the DSG in PA, I found a pair of matching Benelli Supernova SteadyGrip 'tactical turkey' guns.  They are 24" barrels with fiber optic bead sights, a pistol-grip "SteadyGrip" stock, all tactical black with the plastic armor, just beautiful guns.  This was the second most expensive model they made, only thing more expensive was the camo version of same gun, this was a $609 gun the camo was like $649... 

 

The kid working was absolutely THE MAN, wound up getting it down to me for $329.  He gave me a repeat customer discount, a long-inventory gun discount, matching-pair-of-guns discount, etc.  The manager came over and gave a bigger discount for being a great customer and we just sealed the deal, I couldn't say no to a Benelli Supernova $609 gun for $329. 

 

it wound up being absolutely amazing and a perfect complement to my M930SPX.  *but it just kinda sucked* that it was a bit big for me.  I am not a big dude, and a 24" pistol-grip'stocked gun was a little big to bring up quick in self defense.  I thought I could tactical it up but, a Benelli barrel is MORE THAN THE COST OF A NEW SUPERNOVA TACTICAL, literally.  The gun I liked, Supernova Tactical comfortech with ghost ring sights, was like $419 in early '10, the barrel for Supernovas, 18.5" w/ front ghost ring sight tower, $449.  So it would NOT be cheap to outfit it ,

 

 

Then my beloved dog, who was just a pup barely even a year old, got sick, and needed thousands of dollars of tests and I needed quick cash and that was that ,it was gone in a few hours.  But I felt justified in letting it go because I knew it wasn't "fitting me" the way I like, BUT THE GUN was so smooth and silky sexy you could fall in love with them.

 

Keep in mind also, back then the M3 Convertible and the M4 were strictly pistol grip guns, and I tried to order them w/ ComfortTech stocks they refused.  I begged them, JUST PUT THE STOCK ON THERE, IT WILL FIT, NO BIG DEAL, nope.  So I had no real options.  The M2 Tac was like $1300 and I didn't NOT like it, but I would have liked the M3 or M4 more.  Now I see they make an M4 standard stock.  But in the future maybe, not now.

Have you looked at the M4 prices today? Paid about 1800 and with everything I put into it, is now over 2 Gs.... So you better really start saving.

I don't regret it one bit though...

;)
