Elb1 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I just bought my very first shotgun. It's a Benelli nova tactical. My question is this: When Open the box and put the barrel and what not on I had this small plastic clip in the box. I scanned the manual and parts list and nothing there appears to show/say what it is. So for the past 2 nights it's frustrated the **** outta me. Here's the even better part, I broke it. I made a picture (if you want to call it that lol) of what it did look like. Any help will be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novaking Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Is your nova put together? does everything fit snug? Does it cycle rounds? Does it hold 3 or 5 rounds in the mag? Have you shot it yet? I have 3 novas and there and I haven't seen any "clip" in the box after I put them together. let me know novaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elb1 Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yep, it's all put together. I haven't even tried to cycle rounds. I won't be attemting to shoot it until weds on my day off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter18 Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hey there. I think the plastic piece you're talking about is for shipping purposes. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elb1 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 I don't think it was for shipping, as it was inside the box. It kinda looks like a tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elb1 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 Now that I can post pics, here what I tried to draw to give ya'll an idea. It was rather small in size. Maybe 1/4 inch thick 1/2 half an inch wide and 1 inch tall. And it had the arrow i put on the drawing on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Looks like some kind of a shipping block to keep something in place. The arrow indicates that it is to be pulled out. Someone probably previously opened the box and removed it. I say toss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtCathy Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Hi Noob, Don't have a Nova, but when I bought my little 20 guage Monty a few years ago, their was a small red tab attached to the chamber (about 1" x 1+1/2") just in front of the bolt face. It was for packing purposes to protect the bolt. SgtCathy Cape Cod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elb1 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 Well, after 3 of ya say so, I'll take your word. I did buy it at a gun show, so the box was already opened. Thank you all for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
