Yes, so after around 6 months of owning a Benelli Nova Pump 12 gauge, I finally got to shoot it. Yes, my shoulder hurts after around 20-25 shots. Yes, it was awesome, compared to a 9mm Glock. :mrgreen:
So, a few questions until I get a chance to take a class or two. (On maintaining it, saftey, etc.)
How should I have it positioned against my shoulder? I think I was doing it correctly, but from what I read on another gun forum, my shoulder shouldn't hurt.
As a note on that, I'm a very thin person. (About 6' 2" ish, 155 lbs.)
How often should I clean it? This was the first time I've shot it since I got it, and we went through 25 rounds. Should it be OK for a while, or should I clean it?
Pics: (Sorry if they're a bit big, it apperently didn't resize them like I told it to)
First shot, 25 feet.
Next few shots, 75 feet
I had one more target, but it wasn't all that impressive. There also wasn't much left of it.
