    I Won a Benelli!

    WOOHOO! I couldn't wait to get home to tell you all! I won a Benelli Super Nova! Benelli had a contest for sales people and it went according to who sold the most Benellis in a certain amount of time. I tied with another sales person in our shop but won the tie breaker. So I get the Super Nova of my choice, and the manager said that sometimes they give winners the option of getting a special serial number, like their name in it and stuff. I don't know if I want my name in the serial number, but I'll come up with something else if it ends up as an option like he says it may.

    So I have already decided what I am going to request as my Super Nova. I'm getting it with a 28" barrel, Advantage Timber HD, and ComforTech. I am still thinking I will attempt hunting at some point, so instead of hauling my poor K31 through the woods, I'll bring my new free Benelli instead.

    That's great. That opens up more game for hunting and you can also break clays.

    I am certain you will come to love your new gun. I am also pretty sure you will learn to love the other side of shooting sports. Just ask some of those guys(or gals) that are on the other side of the counter to take you out hunting. That way you won't need to buy any decoys. There might be something to this whole hunting thing. After all it is a pretty big business. Congratulations, I really hope you enjoy your new shotgun!

    I don't have shotgun in hand just yet. They're placing my order after the holidays have passed up and we're settled down, right now the shop is just complete lunacy all day every day. As soon as I get it I'll post photos and a range report! LOL! I already have ammo for it!

    F*** if I know. My boss hasn't even taken an order for which one I want yet, never mind actually contacting Benelli to let them know someone won. At this point I think we've been written off and they won't even honor it, it's been a few months now. I'm not a happy girl. But we're going to be trying to make a few attempts to get it rolling this week. I've got some other managers who are going to try to get this thing ordered one way or another.

    To hell with the boss, call Benelli direct and see what they need you to do so you can get YOUR gun.

    A few people suggested that. I may try. Benelli is a pain in the butt to work with if you are calling from a dealer but aren't in charge of orders. I may try to get one of the managers to call for me instead. They may work with her.
