The Nova's one-piece polymer-over-steel receiver/stock housing delivers a rigid, durable platform with a matte black finish. The steel receiver core is paired with a synthetic stock and polymer forend, both in black, with textured gripping surfaces for confident handling. A cross-bolt safety sits behind the trigger.
The 26-inch vent-rib barrel is threaded for choke tubes and currently fitted with a full choke. A red fiber-optic front bead on the rib provides a bright, easily acquired aiming point. The gun is chambered for 2 3/4 or 3 inch 20-gauge shells and feeds from a 4+1 tubular magazine.
