What’s Included
- Benelli Nova Compact 20 Gauge pump-action shotgun
- Three screw-in choke tubes: Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder
The Compact configuration delivers a 13 in length of pull that is easy to shoulder and control, complemented by a soft recoil pad and a rear sling swivel stud. The ribbed synthetic fore-end provides a secure grasp for positive cycling.
The 24 in barrel uses a ventilated rib with a red fiber-optic front bead for fast sight alignment. A screw-in choke system comes with Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder tubes, and the chamber accepts both 2-3/4 in and 3 in 20 gauge shells.
Built around a steel internal frame with a durable polymer shell, the Nova wears a full-coverage Realtree camo hydro-dip across the stock, receiver, and barrel. Italian proof marks and Benelli/Benelli U.S.A. legends are present on the receiver and barrel.
Operation is pump-action with a cross-bolt safety. An integrated magazine cutoff/shell-stop on the fore-end provides controlled unloading or single-loading as needed. The ejection port is on the right side, and capacity is configured 2+1.
This shotgun was made in Italy, imported by Benelli U.S.A., Accokeek, MD. The serial number is located beneath the loading port.
