tributerocks Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 right now I have a remington 870. but i really like the looks of the super nova, but I kind of want a semi auto for ducks (stoeger m 2000). I cant decide between the two and I wanted to know which one you guys thinks is a better choice. Im trying to keep the price under $500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Between those two the Nova is the best choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novaduckhunter Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Between those two the Nova is the best choice. +1 If you like the supernova and it feels good when you shoulder it then get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL_Waterfowler Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 The Super Nova is a great gun, but I would opt to the semi auto route and go with the Stoeger ( I am not a big pump action fan). I have several friends who shoot the M2000 and love it, also I havent read a bad review on it yet. I have though about purchasing one myself. Only thing I have heard is than the bolt release is tough at times, but can be tweaked easily by any gunsmith. For the price, I think it is a great way to go.

NateDog Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I don't have experience with the Nova, but would stay away from the 2000. If you want to spend 500 or less, check out a used Benelli, Beretta, or Browning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMAC Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 If you want to find negative comments on the Stoeger M2000 try the Stoeger forum and just read. Lots of problems for you to review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig22 Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 i'm the chairman for the DU Chapter in Sacramento, CA. i deal with Gun dealers all the time for our dinners. Everybody thinks they are getting a great deal on a Stoeger M2000, but all I have heard is they run into problems. It is the least expensive Auto on the market for a reason. Also if you already have an 870 then there is no reason to buy a nova. They are the same. i know guys who have shot 870's for 20 years and they haven't had problems. There really aren't any quality auto's to get for under $500. if you really want an auto for under $500 i agree with nateDog and look for a used Beretta, Browning, or Mossberg. Auto's are really touchy and it's easy to run into reoccurring problems if you don't get a quality gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
split arrow Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 stay away from the m2000. the 870 is a great gun. I went from an 870 to a I-12. Iwas thinking about the 2000 but read so many bad reveiws and not enough good ones. So I saved up a couple more bucks and bought an I-12 and LOVE it.

Tel Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 The Stoeger, IMHO doesn't even make a good boat paddle. You can get the Remington 1187 auto for about $525. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranglehold Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 The M2000 has the potential to be full of problems depending on when it was manufactured. Read the Stoeger forum to see what types of problems that gun has. Or, you could ask me. I can sum up my experience in 1000 words or less.
