Well I've had it a few months. I have been meaning to post a few photos.

It handles 3.5" magnum shells for those hard to kill Fuckers !! :thumb::D

Benellis rock! I almost bought a Supernova, but ended up getting ammo instead. I would still like to get one.

Yes they do rock !! . It's light weight also since it's almost all plastic.

The 3.5's are friggin brutal in the Nova's....I was going to buy one but the aftermarket accesories are near zero.

Good point about the aftermarket merch available for Benellis. At first, Noss had said he was just gonna get an 870 Remington, but they had a sale on the Super Nova so he jumped on it...then, it happened :eek:

While driving by a big gun store on the other side of town, we stopped in to just "look around" ;) While checking out the AK's and AR's, I noticed the barrel size of one of the AK's....that's when I found what was to become both of our obsessions.........the Saiga 12 :rockon:. If you are not familiar with the Saiga, its the AK-47 shotgun. You can type in Saiga in youtube and see all kinds of badass conversions to that shotgun, including fully automatic converted guns.....not that we would ever do thaaaaaat :cool:.

Next thing I know, Noss is saying, "buy my Benelli so I can go get that Saiga". My house needs a new roof so I can't drop any dough on more guns right now, but through a mutual friend, I met that owner of a smaller gun store who has really, really competitive prices, so it will only be a matter of time before I am handing over my paychecks for a completely new arsenal.

Me, Noss, and a coworker of mine went out to the woods one night and fired his Benelli, my Winchester pump shotgun, and my friend's Maverick. I was expecting the Benelli to be a badass shotgun and it did not disappoint. A friend of mine got into legal trouble so he sold me his Nova 18 inch barrel pump action, but I haven't fired it yet. It also takes 3.5 inch shells, but neither Noss nor I have shot that size yet.

I am gonna increase me shotgun arsenal with a Saiga 12, an 870 Remington, and probably a Mossberg 900 series. I will probably start off with the Saiga, then get some assault rifles just in case the Dems have a change of heart and go for the ban.

You know, just thinking about the number of guns I am looking to buy just leaves me exhausted.

ITS A SICKNESS, REALLY, THE EFFING CAMERAMAN

I haven't shot the 3.5's in it yet. I shot a mossburg 3.5 and yes they kick like a mule. It was hard to hold onto the gun if you didn't your grip hand would would come off and pop your face.

MonkeyBomb: Yeah accessories are hard to find for them. There isn't much I want to add to it except maybe a light mount but these are available for it.

The Cameraman: The woods shoot was fun we shot up everything that night. We just now need the Saiga-12's with the 20 round drums. :eek:

I like these new Benelli shotguns. It's got a great recoil design to it. It is definitely a great goose gun.

Wait! How long is that barrel? That's a tactical MF.

Noss

Benelli's are flat out the best production shotguns. ALthough siaga-12's are sick, you cant go wrong with a good ole undertube traditional design. damn i couldnt immagine firing a 3.5" pistol grip 12ey
