The Stoeger M3500 uses the Inertia Driven operating system that doesn’t use propellant gas venting into the action.
Stoeger’s M3500 comes with 24-, 26- or 28-inch barrels, has a ventilated, stepped rib and fiber-optic front sight and an alloy receiver drilled and tapped for an included Weaver-style scope base.
All M3500s come supplied with five choke tubes (Extra-full turkey, Full, Modified, Improved-Cylinder, and Cylinder), shim kit for drop and cast adjustment, and a threaded steel recoil reducer that can be installed in the buttstock to help manage felt recoil from heavy Magnum loads.
The M3500 is available in three different finishes — Matte Black synthetic, Realtree® APG™ or Realtree® Max-4®.
