The affordable and all matte black Stoeger M3K Freedom is a 10+1 capacity 12-gauge shotgun chambered for 2 3/4” and 3” shells that has a full-length magazine tube and a synthetic stock. It also has an inertia system that uses the kinetic energy to fully recycle the gun for subsequent shots. The advantage of Stoeger’s inertia system is that it has fewer parts, no gas cylinder and requires less maintenance than gas-operated systems.

The M3K barrel is 24” long. Length of pull is 14 3/8” and overall length is 48”. The drop at comb is 1.5” and at the heel it’s 2. 5” while the gun weighs 7.3 pounds

The rib atop the barrel is vented. The arched bridges over the barrel are as aesthetically pleasing as they are functional in providing a sight line that draw the eye above the barrel. The front sight is a red fiber optic bar sight, though it’s still called a bead sight.

The gun comes with three different chokes: Extended C, Extended IM and Extended IC.

The bolt handle is oversized, making it easy to work. The forend has deep upper fluting and milder lower fluting, all optimized for ideal grip, and of course the magazine is partially concealed within.

Moving back and down, the trigger guard is rounded. Its inner curves echo the curved trigger. The cartridge drop lever is in front of the trigger guard while the safety is at its back top.

The butt stock has a thick rubber recoil pad with cross-hatched edging that makes for nice detailing. The gun also has a beveled loading port for faster reloads.

Stoeger is a subsidiary of Benelli USA; both are headquartered at Accokeek, Maryland, about 10 miles due south of Washington, DC, but on the eastern bank of the Potomac River.
