I just bought a slightly used SuperNova yesterday. It looks brand new. I brought it home, stripped it down, and cleaned it. I didn't get an owners manual with it. So I followed the one online. I removed the magazine cap and saw where one corner was slightly pushed in . Is this the way it comes from the factory? I couldn't get the retainer out. I didn't want to break it. What tool do I need to get the spring retainer cap out?
Thanks!!
Yes, pictures man pictures.

It is a pain and cost a fortune to get other barrels. Nothing wrong with SBEII and slugs.Hi, I don't really know which benelli to get, here is what I want, cost isn't a huge issue:-Autoloader, 12ga
-Recoil reduction
-Be able to shoot 2-3/4 through 3-1/2
-Barrels interchangeable from rifled slug to choked smoothbore
-"classic" shaped stock (as opposed to pistol grip)
Those are my only requirements..suggestions? I can't seem to navigate the site very well on my computer
How accurate are benellis slug barrels?
Any info would be great, thanks

I dod not get all 3. Buttpad it came with works fine.I was just reading the Benelli sports journal about gun fitmenta dn it says that ALL SuperNovas come with all three of the gel pads for the stock. Is this true? -
Back when I got mine I bought everything except sabot rounds. All were fun. Local skeet, trap and rifle range had requirements that they only allow certain types of ammo check with them first. If shooting on your own land then its all good.

I personally would not spend the money. I do not think that there is anyone stupid enought to stay after they hear me rack a round. They do know what is coming next. 9 shot capacity is over kill. If you empty the magazine guess who gets to remodel and repair their front room.

I just want one day and thousands of rounds and multiple types of targets. Man this me being jealous all over again tonight.
-
Yeah that sound you hear is me being jealous.

No porblems with my Super Nova. After shooting each and every time gets broken down and cleaned extensivly and lubed.

Why do so many people say that benellis have too much recoil for a sporting gun when benelli claims that they are the softest kicking guns on the market?
I would say more than likely they do not own a Benelli or they have not really shot one.

12 and 9 years old. What is the stature? If they are still on the small side I would think a 12 gauge is a little big and go with a Youth Nova 20 gauge. If they can handle the 12 gauge and length and weight then both of your choices would be great. Just as a little special item on the shotguns tray and get the same make and model and see if the vendor can get back to back serial numbers. Sometimes it is hard with little retailers but with big sportsmans warehouse types stores it is easier.

Do they have a law which prohibits your moving to a free state?
No law. Just common sence. Great jobs, a house and family.

I took a look in mine and the same thing is happening too. I am not to worried about it though. This is the receiver and the barrel slips into it and the chamber is in the barrel not the receiver. I am assuming this is from the pressure and stress that shooting a shell causes. If it does bother you I would have gunsmith redo the finish or try spray coating that you can spray and bake on a new coating. Check out the link.

Whoever does not live in California is still doing OK. Here we have so many laws and restriction on guns and ammo. In major cities they already take a copy of you ID amount of ammo purchased and your right thumb print. So here it is already scary.

Great reply. I asked this previously and did not get good answers. I thought no one really know what it was. But now I know.As Banjo said, it is the forcing cone.What is a forcing cone, you ask?
The forcing cone is where the inside diameter of the barrel transitions from the chamber diameter, which for a 12 gauge barrel is about 0.800 inches, to the bore diameter, which for a 12 gauge barrel is about 0.729 inches (nominally, unless your gun is back-bored in which case it'll be slightly bigger.)
This cone starts approximately at the end of the chamber (so for a gun with a 3" chamber, the cone would start at about 3 inches from the breech end of the barrel.)
This is also why you should never use longer shells than what your gun is made for. If, for example, you put a 3 inch shell in a chamber made for 2-3/4 inch shells only, it will still fit, but as you fire the gun and the shell's crimp opens, the forcing cone doesn't allow it to get all the way open, which can cause high pressures in the chamber, which the gun is not made for.
Why does your barrel have this change in diameter from the chamber to the barrel?
The chamber has to be a large enough diameter to accept the shell, which is substantially larger in diameter than the wad/shot cup, which is what comes out of the shell and heads on down the barrel and out the muzzle when the gun is fired.
The forcing cone is somewhat of a carry-over from the days of paper or cardboard wads, when a very tight seal was needed to minimize blow-by of the gases from the burning powder. Modern wads do a much better job of sealing the barrel than the old cardboard wads did.
If your barrel were the chamber diameter (0.800 inches) for its full length, it would still work, and probably just fine, since modern wads are soft plastic and are "cupped" at the end, and will spread out or "obturate" to seal even a very large diameter barrel.
But most manufacturers still make barrels with the old nominal 0.729 diameter, which is why most barrels will have a forcing cone.
Good question.

www.midwayusa.com use the words saddle mount in the search field it is 4 or 5 on the list.

Pictures???

Have you tired the Benelli Italy website yet? Address is www.benelli.it.com give it a try there.

I bought a saddle mount from midway. No drilling or xtra work needed. Slip out retaining pins and slip on saddle mount and put in pins provided. Pretty slick set up. Here is the link to midway and the saddle mounts.

I shot a can of foam before. It exploded really nice. Insulation was a pain to clean up though.
-
Amen to that.

Micro fragments? Kinda like the ones in Ironman?
-
A little bailing wire will help too.

I like The Wall-Mart. They have cleaning supplies and ammo at reasonable prices.
How long did it take you to get your shot gun?!?!
