A lot of the 2000's sucked. The 3000's are supossedly better. My buddy got one and so far so good. If his keeps doing as good as it has so far, I'll probably pick one up but I know it will never shoulder as good as my M2.
As it turned out, a lot of Stoeger 2000 owners were idiots that couldn't read or follow instructions. It must be noted that many of these morons complaining that thier Stoeger "sucked" were never heard from again once somebody pointed out the owner error. RTFM.
The early complaints about the 2000 not cycling were almost all due to owners failing to read directions and putting the fore end spacer and locking washer on in the wrong order when they assembled the gun the first time. When I got my Stoeger 2000 and saw the two parts, it immediately occured to me that the order these parts were placed probably mattered, so I simply glanced at the manual and--what do you know--it's right there in a big highlighed box that says "WARNING!".
Fixing guns is sometimes easy. Fixing stupid is always hard.
