Nova 3 Tactical Pump-Action Shotguns
The Benelli Nova 3 redefines pump-action performance, bringing next-level innovation, durability, and speed to the field. Engineered with legendary M4 technology and advanced Poly-Mod construction, this shotgun delivers responsive handling and unwavering reliability in any conditions.
When Benelli introduced the original Nova, it revolutionized pump-action shotguns—proving that innovation had no limits. Now, the Nova 3 takes that legacy even further. With its lightweight, quick-handling design and battle-tested M4 performance, this shotgun is built for those who demand Lighter, Faster, and Always Ready performance.
3" Chamber Leads to a 14% shorter cycling stroke compared to the original Nova making it much faster. The incorporated M4 bolt-face is added for ultra reliability.
Nova 3 incorporates legendary M4 engineering with poly-mod construction, a crisp trigger, and ergo-evolved diamond grip stock -- one of the best gripping surfaces on the markets -- for responsive handling and unwavering performance.
A button positioned on the underside of the forend activates a shell stop, allowing a chambered shell to be removed without releasing rounds from the magazine.
Durable recoil pad provides greater recoil reduction. Nova 3 is equipped with a flush QD sling cup.
Designed with front and rear ghost-ring sight system. Rear sight has a picatinny rail allowing the attachment of various accessories.
