Stoeger

With prices for the STR-9 series handguns starting at $329 MSRP, this $50 mail-in rebate makes a great buy even better.

Last year, I reviewed the new STR-9, a 9MM semi-automatic pistol from Stoeger Industries of Istanbul, Turkey, for this very digital platform. Best known for its workhorse shotguns, Stoeger launched itself into self-defense handguns with the STR-9—and it did a workman-like job.

While widely known for its shotguns, Stoeger Industries branched out into the handgun market back in 2019. Over the past three years, they have expanded upon their initial STR-9 offerings to add sub-compact, compact, regular, and full-sized 9mm striker-fired pistols to their lineup. Stoeger has earned a reputation for durable shotguns and intends to build upon this legacy by bringing affordable and reliable handguns to market, and for the most part throughout my testing, I found this to be true.

The versatile shotgun eliminates the need to add U.S. manufactured components to gain the extra capacity demanded by serious snow goose hunters.

Everyone assumes the best product always has the highest price tag, however, this is not always the truth. I want to point out some features that make the M3K FS 3-Gun Shotgun the best value for your dollar.

Stoeger Industries is announcing a full line of concealed-carry pistols based on their modern STR-9 handgun, the new STR-9 Compact series.

Stoeger Industries is adding a new pump-action shotgun with a side-folding stock to their Freedom Series, the P3000 Supreme.

Probably best known in the United States for its workhorse M3500 inertia-driven shotgun, Stoeger Industries jumped into the concealed carry handgun market early in 2019 with the STR-9 pistol.

The P3500 is sure to be a hit with the bargain-minded hunters in states with snow geese. The new gun retails for $399 and comes with a 5-year warranty.
