Well I suppose they work ok. Being a steel and wood guy...I'd never buy one. They do have a bit of recoil shooting the big bruiser shells...but so does the Mossberg 3 1/2 in pump gun. Kinda brutal in fact. but I'm a wimp who really doesn't like recoil anyway. Surprisingly I really don't seem to mind the 3 1/2 10 ga in an auto though. Seriously..the Nova seems to sell pretty good..but you do see quite a few for sale used..

i had a 870 then i got a nova. because the lop was too long in the nova, being plastic, could not be cut down. lop on the 870 is 1/4 shorter i think? still a wee bit long for me, but i can modify the stock. the nova is a bit hevier. i couldn't find any aftermarket bbl's for the nova, i know they sell them. 870 is just easier to own, and shoot for me. i don't like plastic stocks anyways. you ain't gonna go wrong with a nova, because of a qualtiy issue. an express 870 12 ga. combo with the rifled slug/26" bbl. is hard to beat
