adicus8 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hey everyone! Im new here and will soon be a first time gun owner. I have been around guns my whole life and shot a few different shotguns. It is time for me to own one of my own. I will use it for mostly trap shooting. What is your opinions on the supernova? Will it cycle 2 3/4 shells perfectly even though it can take up to 3.5? Should i get the 28 inch barrel? I want a gun that will last a very long time, that is why i wouldnt mind spending a bit extra for the supernova as long as it will last. Thanks!

Liet Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I love mine. If you're shooting trap go with the 28". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adicus8 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Is it worth the extra money compared to a remington 870 or Mossberg 500? Aesthetically it looks much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmturner54 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Just got one recently. Havent shot it yet, but cycles very smooth. I also have an older 870....30 yrs old. Still works, would not take a dime for it, old standby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CROWSLAYER Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I love my Super Nova with 28" barrel in camo! I use it for hunting birds and squirrels, now if I was just using it for self defense then I get the shortest barrel 18". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sib1948 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Shot my new SuperNova Tactical this AM for the first time and and it readily all 2 3/4 rounds I fed it! Slugs, 00 buck, and 4 shot. Light recoil and extremely accurate at 50 feet. Gun is definitely made to last. You'll want a longer barrel for trap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sib1948 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Went out in the desert yesterday. Again SuperNova functioned flawlessly with low recoil Federal slugs and buckshot. Hitting 12 inch gong at 80 yards with slugs using only stock iron sights. Used Federal 2 3/4 Walmart 4 shot to massacre soda cans and small melons thrown in the air. Great fun!!! And yes, we cleaned up our shells and cans, leaving the melon bits for the birds, donkeys and coyotes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
