Hi guys i was thinking of purchasing a new nova, but i went to a local dealer and checked it out and the forearm rattles like crazy! is there anything i can do to fix that? or is that just how it is?

Its how it is......don't let that detract you from picking one up though. These are very well made shotguns.

sweetm,
If the rattling really bothers you, then take the forearm off and line it with very thin piece of felt, using a rubber cement type adhesive. When you reinstall the forearm be sure to tighten the allen screws well. :cool:

A hunting buddy of mine did this with his Nova and it worked well without interfering with the cycling action of the pump. ;)

Good hunting, Bowhunter57
