I sold my Stoeger M3000 and just bought the 26" Synthetic V3 for $489 with free shipping from Brownells.
Subtract $100 for the current Remington rebate, add $20 FFL fee and I will have paid just over $400 for the V3.
I will be adding the Nordic Components MXT mag extension components as soon as it arrives.
I hope that they come out with other barrel options (18"-20" heavy wall) as I'd like to set up a V3 as one of my home defense firearms.
I'm hearing that they might be releasing a Remington V3 in 20 Gauge at the 2018 Shot Show, but I'm not holding my breath.
