I'm not too hard on it, though. I keep it in the case till I get to the blind and wipe off the water drops, but that's it. I'm sure I would break it down if I dropped it in the marsh or mud, but I have yet to even clean the packing grease.


No doubt they are a beast...but use it and then use a well oiled browning bps and you will switched in heart beat... Nova is stiff and heavy!!!! But it is dependable, if you have 20" biceps


Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, b/c they know not victory nor defeat"- #26 TR

The NOVA is pretty stiff, but I figure that I can bludgeon a gator with it if necessary. Will definitely look at the bps as I am in the market for another pump shotgun.

I have been using my 391 Urika for 12 Years and have no Complaints at all. Great Gun, However for the money you can never go wrong with the old Stand by 870 Pump
