Stoeger Condor Competition Questions

[hk91666]

Does anyone have one or has anyone shot one? I am considering purchasing one for trap and hunting. I currently own a Browning 2000 which I may sell or trade in.
I am looking for others opinions of the Stoeger Condor Competition shotgun.

Thanks in advance

Sorry if you already know this - it's essentially the same design as a Benelli O/U made by Benelli in Brazil.

It lacks any of the engraving, inlays, etc. that we all know make a shotgun shoot better, so shotgun fashonistas will not be impressed if that matters.....

All the best with your decision.

Since pretty is not a concern to me, I thank you for that information. That is exactly what i was looking for.

I never was interested in Engraving as I would not take an engraved gun out for fear of damaging it.

Thanks again for the link, now gotta find the money to get one.

I purchased a Stoeger Condor Competition in August of last year. After swabbing out the barrels I took it out to our club trap range and shot a 21, and two 23s. The following day my son and I went down to a local Shootin' Place with my White Wing trap and proceeded to unload some more shells, but I started having trouble with the bottom barrel not firing on doubles. When I got home that evening, I stripped the gun down and noticed there was a LOT of grease in the hammer and trigger section of the receiver. A 20 minute boil in my ultrasonic with a tank of Ed's Red cleaned it out wonderfully.
I've now put over 3000 rounds through the gun in the last 6 months with not a glitch. The gun is a great shooter, heavy enough so that recoil is not a problem, and has not let me down since. It is a great value.

My buddy bought one and proceeded to shoot the crap out of it. So far he said its been great. I was gonna sell my mossberg silver res to buy one but decided that I lost intrest in Over/under shotguns so I didn't purchase one.
