Benelli Nova NFA ShotGun

Benelli USA

ACCOKEEK, MD --(Ammoland.com)- Benelli USA now offers National Firearms Act (NFA) shotguns with 14” barrels, that can be purchased through a Benelli USA authorized Class III Commercial dealer.

To satisfy the growing demands of shooters who understand the advantages of short-barreled shotguns, Benelli is offering a variety of 14-inch barreled tactical shotguns.

These shotguns include the pump-action Nova, the semiautomatic M2, and the extremely popular and rugged M4, which is the shotgun of choice that has served the U.S. Marine Corps since 1999.

The Benelli Nova is a standard pump-action shotgun popular among defense enthusiasts. Its most innovative and distinguishing feature is a one-piece receiver and buttstock, made of steel-reinforced polymer.

The M2, considered the workhorse of the Benelli line, features the Inertia Driven operating system, which means that it runs clean; the gun blows all of the gas and residue —created by shotshell discharge— out the barrel. The debris does not blow back into the operating system, as it does with many gas-piston systems.

The M4, the pride of the Benelli tactical lineup and gun of choice for the US Marine Core, features the Auto Regulating Gas Operated (ARGO) system, which provides clean failsafe operation in any environment.

These products, which are currently in use by Law Enforcement and Militaries all over the globe have been tested, under any condition possible with the same outcome every time—ultra reliability you can depend on every time.

The Nova, M2, and M4 shotguns are available with 14-inch barrels and come in a variety of configurations with features like adjustable ghost-ring sights, rifle sights, and tactical stocks and pistol grip stocks.

Virginia Citizens Defense League Charlottesville Meeting Was Very Educational
EM Pat Webb filed this report:

Virginia Citizens Defense League

Covington VA --(Ammoland.com)- For those who couldn’t make it last night, you missed an extremely informative meeting.

VCDL Executive Member and firearms attorney Mark Matthews spoke to us about setting up revocable trusts for the purpose of owning NFA items.

We discussed what items are covered by the National Firearms Act (NFA), what the trust can do and how this is an advantage to the person or people setting up the trust and to their heirs.

Once these details were explained we had a Q & A session where we delved deeper into the subject of trusts, firearms laws and, maybe most importantly, the amount of misinformation floating around out there.

The truth is, there are many people who just don’t know or comprehend the myriad of firearms laws. We were also fortunate to have a couple of FFL holders in the audience who deal in NFA items and could give us first-hand accounts of their experiences with BATFE.

They, too, fielded questions and offered valuable insight. We explored the tangible differences between a trust you would set up to leave assets to your heirs and an NFA trust, and why you want an attorney that understands the nuances of both.

In short, a lot of information was exchanged and should Mr. Matthews speak at future events I strongly encourage you to consider attending.you will not be disappointed! VCDL is extremely privileged to have such a valuable asset as Mr. Matthews, who has made it his mission to dissect and understand these regulations.

We appreciate the time he devotes to the organization and the firearms community. Likewise, we are grateful to RRPC for continuing to host the VCDL membership meetings by providing a comfortable venue, and for their dedication to educating the public about shooting sports and firearms safety.

[PVC: Based on a lot of requests, I tried to audio tape the session, but the audio isn't good enough to post, unfortunately.]

RRPC Fun Day a success

On Saturday, September 24th Rivanna Rifle and Pistol Club (RRPC) held their annual Fun Day. This is an event where members can bring their family and friends to the range to enjoy hands-on demonstrations of many different shooting sports. Participants were even able to shoot machine guns!

In addition to the shooting activities there were hot dogs and barbeques and there was even a mini-gun show. VCDL was invited to set up a booth and we were proud to participate again this year. VCDL members Gene Harrison, Brian Weidman, John Pulliam, Al Shank and Franz Bailey offered to help man the table. We enjoyed meeting many new people and seeing many familiar faces. A good time was had by all.

RRPC has been, and continues to be, a valuable ally to VCDL. They have provided a comfortable venue for VCDL to hold membership meetings in the Charlottesville area. Our thanks go out to the RRPC members and Board of Directors for their continued support. Please feel free to visit their web site at www.rrpc.org.
