Building on the successful launch of its M3K semi-automatic shotgun in 2023, Stoeger is expanding the M3K series for 2025 with new models that, according to the company, “up the game and set the tone for serious three-gun enthusiasts.”

An out-of-the-box, race-ready shotgun intended for three-gun competition, the M3K 3-Gun sports an oversized bolt release button, safety selector and extended bolt handle to ensure fast and positive operation, which is critical in a competitive shotgun. Plus, a beveled loading port makes for fast and efficient reloads.

The new Stoeger M3K 3-Gun (Model No. 36071) is built on the same pattern as the original M3K (Model No. 36038) but hits the three-gun range with a distinctive flair. The receiver, barrel assembly and end cap include a Northern Lights Cerakote finish—a natural complement to the black synthetic stock, trigger guard and operational controls. Not only will this shotgun stand out in a field of black guns, the finish will help with protection from corrosion and rust.

As with the original M3K, the new Northern Lights Cerakote model is chambered in 12-gauge (2¾- and three-inch) with a 24-inch barrel. It also includes a raised vented rib with a red bar front sight and has a 4+1 capacity. Nickel-plated Stoeger-branded extended chokes come standard (cylinder, improved cylinder and modified), along with shim kit allows for custom drop and cast adjustment. Additionally, the factory drilled and tapped receiver can accept an optic mount.

Perhaps best of all, the new Stoeger M3K 3-Gun models are also priced for budget-conscious shooters. MSRP for the M3K 3-Gun Northern Lights Cerakote is $779. The standard M3K 3-Gun semi-automatic shotgun with blued receiver and barrel is $749.
