What do you guys think of the Benelli H2O Nova?  Is it worth $200 more than the standard Nova pump?  My thinking is the H2O will be highly resistant to rust and should last longer.  The one con for me is the stainless finish.  I really like the standard black finish of the regular Nova.

The standard nova is pretty rust resistant.

I have a special purpose nova and went out in the rain shooting it.

No rust, the sling swivels on my sling rusted and pitted but the gun was fine.

If you want the H20, go for it but the regular nova is fine.

I bought a Nova H2O for $200 new a couple of years ago.  Picked up the mag extension for around $50.  Very nice weapon if it is going to be subjected to alt water or prolonged expousure to the elements and infrequent cleaning.  Otherwise a non H20 will do fine, especially if the non H20 is less expensive.

By the way, the Nova H20 is not stainless steel.  The finish is nickel.
