Benelli innovators rocked the shooting industry when they first unveiled the Nova. Up until that time it was thought pump-action shotgun technology had reached its peak. Not so. By incorporating steel skeletal framework overmolded with rugged, state-of-the-art polymer, Benelli’s Nova line demonstrated lighter weight could be achieved without sacrificing durability. Nova’s legacy of toughness was further enhanced by using stocks and receivers formed as a single unit. Today, shotguns bearing the Benelli Nova name are renowned for unsurpassed reliability, strength and weather resistance.
