I've decided to get a pump 20 for small game. I wanted an over-under but I had to make a choice between one nice Browning or a dozen other things I need to take care of. Should I get an Ithaca Model 37 or Benelli Nova? I'm not seeing much difference besides the aesthetic and some function specifics>I can't believe you slid a geopolitics thread!
>>65060969Nova is going to have better resistance to the elements such as water/dirt/etc. It also has a super smooth rotating bolt and the longer forend gives you many different places to hold/rack. 37 is a classic design that has been used for a long time, but on the whole isn't going to be as advanced.Have you held/finger fucked/shouldered both yet? Even if you compare a 12ga version of both to each other it'll help you figure out which one you'd be happier with.
>>65060985I haven't. I was just gonna snatch one offline because nobody within a 2 hour radius of me stocks 20s
>>65060987>offlineOnline fuck sake
>>65060987I'd fingerfuck one of each, particularly if the dealer has some snap caps you can try loading/cycling through. Be they 12ga, 20ga or even 16ga just get your hands on them and get an idea of what you are buying.
>>65060995I'll look around. The element resistance is really tempting since I don't mind rain or going through brush
>>65060969I'd personally either buy American (I have a mossberg 500) or nip (browning and a lot of shotgun brands are made in one factory in japan)
>>65060969Why is Winchester man dressed in Mario cosplay? Is there a deeper meme I'm not aware of?
>>65061509I was lazy and didn't want to come up with an idea for it
>>65061509Its a rehash of a meme about Nintendo wanting to charge 500 bucks for a console in the US plus 80 per game just to play bing bing wahoo. Funnily enough they charged Mexicans the same price to avoid Americans buying them in Mexico and its caused them to basically eat shit.
>>65060969I have a Benelli Nova and love it. 20 gauge is great.
I've shot a Supernova before and it was really nice.
>>65062347Thanks for the affirmation. An old 870 caught my eye first, but if I ever want a home defense gun I'll keep an eye out for the short 12 Nova
