thepasty Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 The Supernova comes apart far more like a Benelli semiauto than an 870. Hard to explain, but check this out - The 870 comes apart in like 4 bits, not the same thing at all! The Benelli also has some nice things, like if you want to swap the cartridge in the chamber you can hold down a button and eject the cart without loading another from the magazine, which is very handy. I think the barrel is chrome lined unlike the 870 making cleaning an absolute doddle. Also as I said earlier, the stock is fully adjustable and has the comfortech stuff for absorbing recoil. Cool thanks for that, I asked as my bro's other gun he's looking at is the Beneli, he's not the best with his hands so if it came apart into a million piece jigsaw I doubt he'd ever get it back together again ... doesnt look too bad.

hedd-wyn Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Hi Andy They were 3", It could've been the racking but It's never happened to me before. I'l probably use it again on Saturday so I'l have another crack at it. I've got some 3 1/2 inch 63grms that need patterning, still haven't plucked up the courage to pattern them yet Cheers Hedd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

throdgrain Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Surely that's a 2 3/4 " chamber on that gun? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hedd-wyn Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It's a 3 1/2 inch Super Magnum. Never had any problems with it before, even with the 2 1/2 carts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

andy198712 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 sorry i ment was it the spent one or the new one getting jammed in on the way to the chamber? on the loading ramp? that would sound like a short stroke, i've done that before Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had two until I sold one to a mate last year You fool! You mad, impetuous *fool*! How could you *do* such a thing? By the way, I've not heard anyone mention the gun which is, perhaps, *the* slickest pump-action ever made - the Higgins M20. (Yeah, yeah, it's really a Hi-Standard.) Anyone else got one of these?
