[ARCHIVED THREAD] - My Stoeger M3000 with some upgrades

Posted: 10/5/2014 6:19:55 PM EDT

Got my M3000 a few weeks ago and ordered some upgrades from MOA precision
Installed the extended safety, bolt handle, and 7 round mag extension

Still need the tap for the slide release and still need to open the loading port, and feed lip but its on its way
Oh I polished the mag tube so the action is real smooth now.

I'm gonna end up going the same route. What did you use to polish the tube? Was it as simple as some polish or multi step?

I have my 26" coming in this week. Already have my MOA +6 extension, Nordic bolt release, and Nordic barrel clamp waiting to install.

I have the drill bit and tap for installing the bolt release, send me a PM if you want when I am done installing mine you can borrow the bit and tap.

You do plan on putting a mag tube/barrel clamp on there, don't you?

Nice ride!

What is that cheek pad you have on it?

Not sure

I mean it feels really strong so do I really need to and if so which one should I get

It may feel secure but the weak spot will be where the extension threads to the original mag tube.

It may be fine but a few times tossed in the dump barrel might prove otherwise. I'd contact Nordic for a clamp.

I haven't run a clamp on mine all year. It is strong enough to handle normal wear and tear but if you trip and fall or drop the gun with a full tube it can bend it at the threads/nut as mentioned below.

Looks good. My 24" should be here tomorrow and cant wait to try it out. Still need to order my parts but have already talked to MOA Precision and know what I need.
Good luck with yours.

Is your handguard on properly? Mine is flush with the receiver, yours looks like it has a lip.

for those with posted photos, can you let me know the barrel length and tube capacity. Just curious as this will probably be a next purchase and trying to figure what I want.
thinking 26" with a 10 round capacity so I have the option to plus up by two at the buzzer.

mine is a 26" with a plus nine nordic/moa tube. it looks kind of goofy with 8" beyond the barrel, but oh well

saw it on BENOS. thanks. tad long for me personally but nice setup. I'm thinking 26 with 10 shell capacity (plus 6) would be nice.

MOA is about a half hour away. As soon as I decide on a 24 or 26, I'll send it to them for the treatment.
