The EGW Benelli Super Nova Pump scope base gives your shotgun a modern aiming platform without any gunsmithing. This one-piece Picatinny rail mounts directly to the factory scope mount holes on your Super Nova's receiver—no drilling, no tapping, no trips to the gunsmith. It's the fastest way to add a scope or red dot to a pump shotgun that was never designed with optics in mind.
Built from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum and machined to MIL-STD 1913 specifications, the EGW base is rigid enough to hold zero through repeated shooting sessions. The full-width Picatinny slots are gauged to +/-.002" tolerance, so any standard Picatinny or Weaver scope ring will seat securely and repeatable. The lightweight tactical design includes a milled center channel that shaves weight without sacrificing strength—useful if you're glassing from the field or running your shotgun in competition.
Installation is straightforward: the base drills to match your Super Nova's existing holes, then fastens with the included socket head Torx screws. EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque and a drop of blue threadlocker for a permanent, rock-solid fit. The modular Picatinny interface also means you can swap rings or optics without removing the base, giving you flexibility to experiment with eye relief or change your sight picture as your shooting style evolves.
