Stoeger Shotguns

I have 2 friends that both have the 2000's and have almost identical problems to what Sammy said... They have done everything to the letter with breaking and lubrication. No dice... Couldnt tell you if they are PRE or POST 07.

I have a m2000 (older model with white bead) that I bought new maybe 5 years ago. During break in, it did jam a few times for the first 2 or 3 boxes of shells. Since then, I don't think it has jammed once (many rounds later, never really kept track but must be at least 1000). I have patterned it as well and it hits where its pointed. At one point I needed a new recoil spring and I had one from Stoeger in my hand in 3 days I believe, no charge. My only complaint is it kicks fairly hard but I guess that's the price to pay for ultra reliability with everything from trap loads to 3 inch shells.
I also own their 20 inch coach gun. Again, no complaints. IMHO these shotguns are great value for the money.
 
I recently bought the p350,my buddy is a gunsmith and said just fire whatever through it and dont worry about the break in nonsense,its meant to fire all 12g variations so do it.

well a buddy and I ran 100 rds through it the other day of cheapo canadian tire target loads and not one problem at all. not to say it couldnt happen, but so far so good.
 
m2000

I bought an m2000 syn (orange bead) in the fall/winter for geese but never eneded up getting out. I have ran close to 500 rds thorugh it since then, all clays, majority light loads, a few boxes of 3" steel. Everything has worked fine so far (knock on wood). No problems with cycling or jams etc. I can't speak for hunting with it yet. Not too sure what about the kick complaints, it feels like a tap from a child compared to an old 12ga SXS I shot for a while. IMO not a bad gun for the price. I guess it all depends on the fit, usage and price range. One complaint is the bolt release is a bit of a pain to operate as it is rounded and take a bit to get it to eject. I am looking at getting it switched out to make it less of a bother.
