Stoeger M3500

I purchased a Stoeger M3500 this past June. I read as many reviews on this gun and others. Lots of differing opinions. Here are mine so far. I broke the gun in at a range as suggested by others, using 2.75 and 3" ammo. This is after I completely disassembled and cleaned all the factory oil from it. Worked fine at the range. September duck season opened and I've been using it ever since. Last month I used it in 20 degree F. weather. No malfunctions at all. All told I've put maybe 12 boxes of 3" Federal blue box steel waterfowl shells through it. So far I'm happy with it and would recommend anyone to give it a look if your considering a new autoloader.

Thanks for the post. I've been considering one myself. Great to hear it's working well. I'm hoping to turn my 870 into a turkey gun and upland game.

I have the same gun as does a buddy and we are completely happy with them

i have the same gun. comes with all the chokes you need for a good price.

That M3500 is a bargain. Quite a bit of crossover technology from Benelli.

Same action, slightly less refined in the fit and finish compared to a Benelli, but for the $$$ it's a good gun.
