72mustang Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Hi Is there such a thing as a nova with a 18 1/2 inch smoothbore barrel and rifle sights? Ive been offered on what is claimed it came from factory like this. Havent seen it personally yet as its an internet online deal. Ive done some looking and only ones ive seen are either just a blade in front or ghost ring sights, not a blade and leaf type rifle sight mounted on back of barrel, not reciever like the one im looking at. Could this be factory or a homemade after job???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrett Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Yes - my brother in-law has one, and it's listed on the website too. The factory one has the blades on the back of the barrel, not on the receiver. The ghost-ring sight is on the receiver.

I must be blind because the only 18 1/2 smoothbore barrel on a nova pump i can find has just the blade for the front. However.. i did see a barrel like im describing on a nova semi.... but not a pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Bore Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 The 2005 catalog lists a Nova Pump Tactical 18.5" cyl bore w/open rifle sights #20050 and pictures it as such. Rear sight on the barrel. That number is still listed in the 2006 caralog also. "However.. i did see a barrel like im describing on a nova semi.... but not a pump." All Novas are pumps.

Ralph Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 The Nova should be around. I bought the same thing in a Super Nova a couple of weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
