Overview
Benelli Nova Tactical 12GA Pump Shotgun with Ghost-Ring Sights | 20056
The Benelli Nova Tactical 20056 is a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun built for buyers who want straightforward mechanical reliability, durable synthetic construction, and a higher-capacity tactical configuration. This model combines a 7+1 magazine capacity, ghost-ring sights, fixed Cylinder choke, and an optics-ready receiver in the rugged Nova platform.
The Nova Tactical is built differently from many conventional pump shotguns. Its stock and receiver design use a one-piece synthetic construction reinforced for strength, helping the shotgun stand up well to moisture, impact, and regular hard use.
7+1 Magazine Capacity
The 20056 is configured with a 7+1 capacity, giving the Nova Tactical more onboard ammunition than standard field-oriented Nova models.
That extended magazine setup is one of the main features that distinguishes this configuration and makes it a strong choice for buyers specifically looking for a higher-capacity pump-action Nova.
Ghost-Ring Sights
The Nova Tactical is equipped with ghost-ring sights, giving the shooter a clear rear aperture and defined front sight for a fast, easy-to-read sight picture.
Compared with a traditional field bead, the ghost-ring setup provides a more precise aiming reference and fits the tactical configuration well.
Rugged Synthetic Construction
The Nova is built using high-strength synthetic polymer reinforced with fiberglass. This construction gives the shotgun a durable exterior while helping protect the platform from moisture, weather, and the wear that comes with regular use.
The one-piece stock and receiver design is one of the features that gives the Nova its distinctive feel and reputation for toughness.
Smooth Pump-Action Operation
The Nova Tactical uses a traditional manually operated pump action with a design focused on smooth cycling and dependable function.
For shooters who prefer the simplicity of a pump shotgun, the Nova provides straightforward operation without the gas or inertia systems found in Benelli's semi-automatic models.
Fixed Cylinder Choke
The 20056 uses a fixed Cylinder choke, keeping the muzzle configuration simple and purpose-built for the Tactical model.
Optics-Ready Receiver
The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, giving owners the option of installing a compatible optic or mounting base while retaining the factory ghost-ring sights.
