bugboy Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Everything I read says the tube for the Nova/Super Nova. My tube arrived yesterday and my Stoeger should be here Tuesday. I'll let you know how assembly goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugboy Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Got my M3000 in today and installed the Nordic +7. Pretty easy. Just took a little cutting and sanding. I left about 14" of spring sticking out. 11 rounds fit in the tube. Will test it out tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have to cut off a little on the end of the tube and I did have to sand the threads on both the tube and the nut. i.e. sand then try, sand then try, etc. Once I got to the right point,,,, everything just went right together. This was a lightly used M3000 from Gunbroker. The seller said it was bought new in September. It looks "as new" but supposedly has around 100 rounds through it. I gave $350.00 + shipping and figure they did me a favor my getting a headstart on the "break-in" and saved me $100.00!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowhazard Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Same method I used on mine and it works fine. A guy from another thread here did kind of a"how to" vid on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBx8TkR5Hd8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugboy Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Took it out this a.m. looking for "flying things" to shoot at. Didn't have much luck on a couple of "flying things". Had a bunch of 00 buck loads that have been laying around for years and decided to burn them up. Loaded up 11 + 1 + 1 and let my brother go with it. He trotted down a road with hedge trees on either side taking shots at hedge balls along the way. The follower got hung up at one point,,,, looks like I need to go in and do some additional smoothing/polishing inside the mag tube. Other than that the gun ran great,,,, points nice, functions well, cycles fast. I think it will be a good 3 gun shotgun and will be able to be used on "duck and goose like targets" also. I cut a 23 1/2 long bamboo "plug" so it is limited to 2 in the tube for migratory "flying things". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
