Stoeger Industries Expands M3000 and M3020 Lines

ACCOKEEK, MD- Stoeger Industries is proud to introduce the M3000 R, M3000 with walnut stock, M3000 Compact and M3020 Compact. These are the latest additions to a line of quality, affordable shotguns for hunters and shooters.

Stoeger’s semi-auto shotguns all utilize the same superior inertia technology that has proven itself so reliable over many years. The Inertia Driven® M3000 and M3020 lines feature the patented inertia bolt with its rotating locking head – the same system that has given inertia operated shotguns their reputation for being among the most durable and reliable shotguns in the world.

The M3000 R slug gun with 24″ slug barrel, and a 1:35 rate of twist, means taking accurate longer range shots is the rule, not the exception. “We’ve spent years developing the M3000 R, waiting to release it until everything was just right,” said Keith Heinlein, product manager for Stoeger Industries. “The Cantilever barrel is an exceptional feature that makes this model unique among the M3000 line. This gun is practical, reliable and great for hunting in states with slug-only regulations.”

Stoeger’s M3000 is now available with an A-Grade walnut stock. A classic look flatters this shotgun that handles loads up to 3-inch Magnums without adjustment. For reliability and performance, no other semi-auto in its price range compares to the M3000.

The M3000 Compact, with a shortened stock that offers a 13 1/8″ length of pull, is a perfectly fitted gun for smaller statured hunters and shooters.

Stoeger’s M3020 Compact is an easy-handling, short stocked, auto-loading 20-gauge offering a 13 1/8″ length of pull. The M3020 compact is great for smaller framed shotgunners who prefer the fit and feel of a lightweight compact. Versatility, value and solid reliability make this gun ideal for waterfowl, wild turkey or upland game.
