    Interesting poll on Enos:

    The one that says 3-Gun on it.

    (Just picked it up recently, still haven't found time to set it up yet.)

        A lot of folks are starting to use that Stoeger! It's good to have choices.
        I think the most interesting part is that there's still only a very limited number of 'good enough' shotguns that you can use for 3-gun. You couldn't do the same poll for the rifle or handgun since there's a ton more choices.

          I have a 26" Stoeger M3000 with Nordic +6 for a total 10+1. Used it in the recent CA Action Shotgun Challenge and ran flawlessly. Actucally, I haven't had and malfunction yet at ~1500 shells fired. Polishing the mag tube makes for a smooth, buttery bolt action.

                I am using a Girsan mc312. Two matches w/o issue. Running walmart ammo birdshot and slugs. I added an ext tube.

                Godspeed to my HCS brothers.

                  It's currently in DROS, so I can pick it up next week and go to town on it with all of the parts I've already picked up for it -- extension mag tube & follower, charging handle, bigger bolt release, double-headed safety, limbsaver recoil pad, new fiber optic sight, and some DIY on the receiver and action tube to make it even more reliable. It's based on the Benelli M2 inertia driven system, which is a proven & very reliable system. Stoeger is a subsidiary of Benelli. The M3000 is also the new 'up & comer' 3gun shotgun over on the Enos forums.

                  The best part.... with the shotgun price & tax & DROS, all of my parts, and the $50 MIR going on right now with Stoeger, I'm right at $610 spent for everything
                  will have to follow up with you to see how everything runs once you get everything setup. currently have a 24" Benelli M2. I would like to pick up a 20" shotgun but not at the price of another M2. since the M3000 is based on the same inertia system I'm sure I'll like it especially at nearly half the price after the upgrades.

                    I run a Salient Benelli M2. I bought 4 years ago. Runs flawlessly.
                    Bought it before the price went sky high.
                    Does not need cleaning after every match, and when I do clean it, only takes about 20 minutes. Not like the Remington which took over an hour, and HAD to clean after every match.
                    Ran a Remington 1100 Competition Master for 7 years. 3 1/2 years ran ok.
                    Last 3 1/2 years it sucked.
                    If you can't shoot good, at least look good shooting

                      +1 for the Stoeger. Runs smooth and eats everything. Great budget 3gun . A few improvements and its up with the 1K+ 3gun ready shotgats.

                        26" Benelli M2 with NC +6 tube, NC BFB, and Arredondo bolt release that hasn't been installed yet. Bought it right as the 3 Gun season ended here in Montana, so I haven't had a chance to compete with it yet.

                          Is the long mag tube on the Benellis OK because of changing out 3 parts to US parts?

                            did you add what looks like skateboard tape or was is that stock?

                              ^ Stock and Fore-end have been stippled. I just followed the outline of the original pattern. Other mods include; TT charging handle/bolt release/Safety, 2" cut rear stock/KICK-EEZ pad, MOA 8+1 tube/Follower, welded lifter/Shaved loading port, Hi-viz front sight.
