[widowson]

Hello,

 

First post from a newbie, so please be gentle!

 

I have a Benelli Nova w/ a 28" barrel; I would like to get an 18 1/2 inch barrel for it for home defense.

 

Any good online sources with the best price? Thanks!

If this doesnt pan out, try calling Mann & Son at 618.357.2911. I believe they offer many parts for Benelli shotguns. This should at least give you a starting point. Hope this helps!!

Thanks for the help! WOW! As I recall, I paid less for my Nova than they are asking for the barrel!

 

I'll give Mann and son a call tomorrow and see what they might have.

 

Thanks again.

I feel your pain regarding the cost of a new barrel. I have already posted a thread regarding this issue. Apparently, due to the chrome lined nature of these barrels, along with importation costs etc., Benelli barrels just cost more. Dont think that Ables Ammo is too over-priced..they arent. Benelli barrels simply cost almost as much as the gun itself. This is, of course, we are talking about any Benelli other than the M series! That is a different story. Sorry for the bad news man...apparently we are all in the same boat here.
