A replacement barrel for your Benelli Nova or Super Nova shotgun opens up new versatility without buying a whole new gun. The Carlson's 87012 choke vent rib replacement barrel gives you a 26-inch option in 12 gauge with 3.5-inch chamber capability, built from 4140 steel and finished in a blued matte satin that resists glare in the field. Swap barrels to adapt your Nova platform to different hunting situations—tighter patterns for distant birds, open chokes for brush work—all with the same reliable receiver you already know.
The vent rib design aids sight picture and handling, and the barrel is threaded to accept aftermarket choke tubes, letting you fine-tune your shot placement for waterfowl, upland game, or clay shooting. At 26 inches, you get a balanced profile that's nimble in tight cover while still delivering the sight radius serious wing shooters expect. The matte satin finish cuts reflection and fits the understated, working-gun aesthetic most hunters prefer.
Drop-in compatibility with Nova and Super Nova receivers means no gunsmithing required—just swap and go. Whether you're building a dedicated waterfowl gun, adding an upland barrel, or simply want a shorter, handier option for your existing shotgun, a quality replacement barrel extends the life and flexibility of your platform without the cost of a whole new firearm.
