Dang. I just ordered from Botach. Hopefully mine will come. LOL Honestly I've ordered from them several times and only had a problem once.

Yes I remember the bashing you took. I just wonder what the actual supply system is like or if they are artificially kept low.

All of the sudden we have Supernova and M4 CS stocks available. Hmm. Botach's prices blow in comparison to HK's though.

Great. Thought about making pistons?

Are you sure you weren't pulling the slide back under recoil? I've seen that happen alot with new Nova users.

Closeups since I couldn't include them in the prior post.

For those interested in running a 3pt on a Nova, here is how I went about it. I ordered a Specter Gear 3pt for a Mossberg 500. The kit comes with a sling plate to use with the Mossberg tube which I did not use. The Remington 870 and Mossberg 590 version would probably also work. For the front attachment, I used a Nordic Components mag clamp with picatinny rail. The NC clamp requires some care when mounting on a Benelli extension as it has a cut out for a Benelli clamp but it's no big deal. Then I just mounted up a generic sling swivel that mounts on picatinny rails. I plan on switching over to a GGG Sling Thing with HD QD swivel. Here is what it looks like: Links: http://www.spectergear.com/mossberg_500_cqb_sling.htm http://www.cactustactical.com/osc/nordic-components-gauge-shotgun-extension-tube-clamp-with-rail-p-1377.html In hindsight I should've just ordered this for the front: http://www.tacticalshotgunner.com/mesa-tactical-magazine-clamp-with-optional-rails-and-sling-swive-p-147.html

I like 3pt slings on long guns. I have the Specter Gear 3pt CQB sling. It says on their website it is for a M1/2/3 but it fits any M4 also.

Anybody here running a 3pt sling on a Nova? I'm using the generic uncle mike's sling which is a two point that can convert to a three point but I'd like to try something more like what Specter Gear offers: http://www.spectergear.com/cqb_sling.htm I am using one of their M1/2/3 slings on my M4 and they are pretty good. However, they don't list one for the Nova/Supernova. Looking at the above link, do you Benelli/shotgun experts think one of the slings for a mossy 500 or remmy 870 would work on a Nova assuming I ran a tube mount front swivel??? I guess the issue is whether or not the rear attachments would work on a Nova. Just wondering if anyone has tried something similar. TIA

Sweet. I like that it keeps the oem design.

That's great.

There might be a large market for 870 stocks but with the prices people are paying for M4 C-stocks you'd think there would be some domestic competition. You listening Tapco? LOL

Not to take anything away from the SR556, but don't give up on the AK Look into a Krebs.

Is the pistol grip soft like the factory one?

Ha ha thanks. I swear I looked a few hours ago and they were out.

All of the usual online sellers seem to be out of stock. Anyone know where Santa can find one? TIA

Awesome. . .

Great, another accessory I'm going to have to buy:D

Apparently I went to the wrong college. Do you get course credit for the event? Looks like good shootin' all around. What ammo were you running in the M1A?

Nice shooting. Made reloading that M1S90 look easy. Is it me or did the M1 seem to run smoother/faster than the Saiga12?

Moving the mount requires the use of an external snap ring plier. Basically it spreads the ring so you can lift it out of place in order to move the mount. You can get a pair of internal/external snap ring pliers from home depot for about $20. At least that is where I got mine. Made by Klein with blue plastic coated handles. Worth buying if you own shotguns or have buddies who do. It also works great to remove the snap ring that Benelli puts in all of their mag tubes.

Any plans for a collapsible version?

Muy bueno!

So I shot finally shot some PDX1 today. I decided to see how it would pattern at 10yds as it's marketed as a home defense round. I shot it out of an M4 with the factory mod. choke and a nova tactical with the factory cylinder set up. First is the M4 and then the Nova. Seems like it is satisfactory out of an M4. Dunno about using it out of a cylinder choke like the Nova- I'd be worried about stray pellets. Don't mind the point of impact, I pulled the shot as I was trying to hold the gun steady For close up work it sees like it might do the trick . . .
