Default Moss 500 vs. Benelli Nova

So I was wondering...how does the Mossberg Bantam 500 20 gacompare to a Benelli youth 20 ga? I'm asking because I'm going to Basspro Sunday and they have the Mossberg Bantam 500 20 ga turkey on sale but if they have a Nova youth, will probably try that.

Just wondering if one is any better than the other or about the same.

They both are nice guns. I would go with the one that felt the most comfortable and balanced well.

I like the Mossberg. It is tried and true. I have had 2 for over 20 years now, and I have put them through HELL. They have never failed me.

you have to buy what works for you. I had my heart set on the Mossberg, but once I put the Super nova in my hands it was a no brainer.
