Sling attachment guidance for the Benelli SuperNova Tactical. Check your exact configuration and both connectors before choosing the McLean Shotgun Sling. Factory attachment points do not by themselves confirm a direct fit.
Front attachment
Attachment behind the magazine tube end cap — aftermarket attachment option.
No factory sling point. The standard solution seats behind the magazine tube end cap on a ball-bearing detent.
Aftermarket attachment option: confirm the connector fits and closes fully on the exact attachment. The existence of a loop does not establish McLean connector clearance.
Rear attachment
Stock attachment — aftermarket attachment option.
No factory point. Important: newer Nova/SuperNova guns use a one-piece stock and receiver assembly, and the usual rear attachment will NOT fit those, nor guns with factory collapsible stocks.
Aftermarket attachment option: confirm the connector fits and closes fully on the exact attachment. The existence of a loop does not establish McLean connector clearance.
Why this sling on the Benelli SuperNova Tactical
Duty, home-defence and competition use put a shotgun on and off the shoulder constantly, often with a hand busy loading. Retention matters more here than raw comfort: the gun has to lock against the body and release without a second thought.
The McLean design is a two-point sling with a patented retention system: it cinches tight to hold the shotgun against your body hands-free, then releases into a ready position in one pull. It ships in one size and adjusts, so there is no length to choose.
Fitting it
- Clear the shotgun. Unload and clear it following the firearm manufacturer’s instructions before fitting any accessories.
- Front: confirm a compatible connector and follow the sling and attachment manufacturer instructions.
- Rear: confirm the matching connector for your stock or rear attachment; do not assume a slot, stud and QD cup are interchangeable.
- Adjust wearing your kit. A setting dialled in without a vest comes up short once it is on.
- Check the transition. It should shoulder without pulling tight across your chest.
Questions
Does the McLean Shotgun Sling fit the Benelli SuperNova Tactical?
Compatibility depends on the exact configuration and connectors. Confirm both attachment points and the connector fit before ordering. A factory attachment point does not by itself confirm a direct fit for the McLean sling.
Do I need a snap hook for the front of my Benelli SuperNova Tactical?
The McLean sling already carries a front hook. Choose a compatible attachment loop or swivel for that hook, and confirm its clearance and closure on your exact setup before buying additional hardware.
What do I need to buy for the Benelli SuperNova Tactical?
Front: Aftermarket attachment option: confirm the connector fits and closes fully on the exact attachment. The existence of a loop does not establish McLean connector clearance. Rear: Aftermarket attachment option: confirm the connector fits and closes fully on the exact attachment. The existence of a loop does not establish McLean connector clearance.
What length sling do I need for the Benelli SuperNova Tactical?
There is no length to choose. The sling ships in one size and adjusts, so the same sling covers carry and cinched retention. Set it wearing the kit you actually carry in — a setting dialled in without a vest or heavy coat comes up short once it is on.
