The SuperNova is a 12 gauge pump action shotgun made by Benelli. The SuperNova is almost similar to the Nova. The only notable difference is that the SuperNova has the ComforTech system, wich reduces recoil. The SuperNova also features a removable stock : the standard stock can be replaced by a pistol grip stock.

Finishes

The SuperNova is available in five different finishes :

  • Black synthetic
  • Advantage Timber
  • Advantage Max-4
  • Realtree APG
  • Desert camo

Awards

  • The SuperNova won the 2006 Shotgun of the year award.
