Novaking Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Good luck. Finding a tactical barrel will be almost impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevildogBenelli Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 I was wondering if its possible to take your barrel to some sort of machine shop and have it shortened without ruining the barrel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawndart Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I was wondering if its possible to take your barrel to some sort of machine shop and have it shortened without ruining the barrel? I've heard of guys having gunsmiths shorten barrels...If it were me I'd either keep the one you have and buy a tactical Nova, or sell yours and buy a short one. I think you'd be money ahead.

DevildogBenelli Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 do you mean sell my whole shotgun and buy a new one? ha i love the gun just want a smaller barrel. unless someone has a tactical Nova to trade me ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevildogBenelli Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 also! wouldnt i be able to just get a replacement barrel or a used 18in barrel off the tactical Nova and throw it on mine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to give you the least expensive option...based on what I have learned over about many years of buying/selling/trading etc. Have you thought about selling your barrel on Gunbroker and buying a tactical barrel? That is another way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevildogBenelli Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 oh well thank you for that information but im kinda looking for a reallyyy cheap way ha cause i just spent all my spending money on my gun ha. i called a gunsmith about shortening the barrel and he said its really simple all you do it cut it and rethread the inside for the choke if wanted. so im debating on if i want to take the risk of cutting it myself on either a chop saw or a band saw...kinda scary though..what do you think?

What happens if it patterns like s**t afterwards?? It's too late then. I'd sell mine and buy a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevildogBenelli Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 which barrel would be compatible? the one from the tactical Nova? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boykinhntr Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Any decent gunsmith can do this and its not that expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
