While Benelli markets the standard SuperNova towards hunters, the SuperNova Tactical is geared more towards home defense. The SuperNova works with Benelli M4-style optics mounts, just pop out the plastic plugs and pop on the scope mount with the screws. The top of the receiver is drilled and tapped for an optic’s rail or mount. If you prefer optics, you’re in good company. They are very well made sights, and very adjustable. It’s got a set of solid iron sights with a rear ghost ring and a big front sight. Luckily, adding a magazine extension is easy, and I did just that to get three extra rounds in the gun.īeads make great sights, but ghost rings are better, and Benelli believes in ghost rings. I, like most, would prefer a little extra capacity in my defensive or tactical shotgun.
#BENELLI NOVA PLUS#
Four plus one is the absolute minimum for a tactical shotgun. That’s common in sporting guns, and the purpose is to keep the weapon legal when hunting certain species of birds. Oddly enough, the magazine tube comes plugged to only allow two rounds to be loaded. The Benelli SuperNova comes with a 4-round magazine tube. Even henchman-sized guys like me find that to be a long length of pull. The length of pull is a long 14.75 inches. The overall length of the weapon is 39.75 inches, and it weighs 7.6 pounds. The 18.5-inch length gives some leeway for the inconsistent testing methods used by the ATF. That’s the stock standard for a tactical 12-gauge, and while shorter is nicer, the NFA requires a stamp for anything less than 18 inches. Benelli doesn’t waste space and keeps the barrel at a trim 18.5 inches.
