Before I answer, let me preface my recommendation by saying that I am a die hard 870 fan for 3" pumps. I have five. It is my favorite gun for a variety of reasons.
That said, get the Nova. It is the only 3.5" pump I would consider. I used to own an H2O which I foolishly sold. The NOVA action is ridiculously smooth and the gun balances very well. With the 870 Supermag, the action tends to jam if you do not work it just right in my experience. The 3.5" Mossbergs do not balance very nicely compared to their 3" counter parts.
