Accokeek, MD – When Stoeger introduced the M3K semi-auto shotgun in 2023, the company delivered into the hands of competitive and recreational shooters an out-of-the-box, race-ready shotgun intended for 3-gun competition. Building on that successful launch, Stoeger is expanding the M3K series for 2025 with two distinctive models that up the game and set the tone for serious 3-gun enthusiasts.

The new M3K 3-Gun (#36071) is built on the same pattern as the original M3K (#36038) but hits the 3-Gun range with a distinctive flair. The receiver, barrel assembly, and end cap come with a stylish Northern Lights Cerakote® finish. This interesting hue offers a natural complement to the black synthetic stock, trigger guard, and operational controls, making the shotgun a classy standout in a field of black guns while delivering optimal rust and corrosion protection.

As with the original M3K, the new Northern Lights Cerakote® model is chambered in 12-gauge 2 3/4- and 3-inch with a 24-inch barrel, includes a raised vented rib with a red bar front sight, and boasts a 4+1 capacity. Nickel-plated Stoeger-branded extended chokes come standard, enhancing versatility and performance for various shooting scenarios. An included shim kit allows for custom drop and cast adjustment, and the factory drilled and tapped receiver stands ready to accept an optic mount.

With its oversized bolt release button, safety selector, and extended bolt handle, the M3K 3-Gun ensures the kind of fast, positive operation so critical in a competitive shotgun. A beveled loading port makes for fast and efficient reloads.

Not only are the new Stoeger M3K3-Gun models out-of-the-box competitors, but they are also priced right for the budget-conscious shooter. The 4+1 capacity M3K 3-Gun Northern Lights Cerakote® has an MSRP of $779.
