ACCOKEEK, Md. (January 24, 2019) – The latest iterations of the M3000 and M3020 retain the reliability and durability hunters have come to depend upon with M3000 shotguns, but with a new look featuring a satin walnut buttstock and forend paired with a Cerekote Burnt Bronze receiver and barrel.

M3000 and M3020 models feature the Inertia Driven System. With fewer moving parts, the Inertia Drive System is the fastest, simplest, cleanest, strongest and most reliable operating system in the world.

Chambered in 12 gauge and handling a full range of loads, from 2-3/4 up to the potent 3-inch magnum without adjustment, the M3000 can take down turkey, waterfowl and upland game birds. A ventilated, stepped rib and red-bar front sight sit atop the 28-inch barrel for quick target acquisition. The receiver has also been drilled and tapped for mounting Weaver-style optic bases. Three chokes (IC, M, XFT), choke wrench and a shim kit for drop and cast adjustment come standard with the M3000. Read more
