Anyone shot one of these? They are for sale all over my area in 31/2 and 3" for about $350.00. Are they any good?

Have seen quite a few in my area for waterfowl use and there are quite a few used ones for sale. Having quite a bit of problems from what I hear. The Stoeger 2000 is a copy of the Benelli M1 Super 90 and supposedly it has been doing very well so far. Even sold by the same people who sell the Benelli. BUT it is only in 3 inch no 3 1/2 Inch. If you need a 3 1/2" gun.... seriously check out the Mossberg 935 semi Auto. Not a bad gun at a very fair price...and made right here in the good ol US of A!!

They're OK....it's a $300 autoloader so one can't expect a whole lot. The Stoeger that was mentioned is made in Turkey as is the Daly. I bought one for my wife (Synthetic, 20 guage) and had the stock chopped. I've shot it several times and it works fine. It's a joke how light it is, that's why it works so well for her.

I bought a Camo'd 12 gauge version and mounted a Leupold Turkey Ranger on a weaver mount. I'll be shooting it come next week getting it dialed for this Spring's Turkey Season, I'm giving up on the Benelli Nova that I bought for that purpose.
