stoeger condor 12ga review.

stoeger condor review

[@davevabch]

I am a avid deer hunter. Hunt thick brush and swamps. I use to carry my Benelli Ultra Light. But a few guys at my hunt club were bragging about the Stoeger Condor Outback. Later at the range I got to use one. Short barrel, 22" accepts multiple chokes. Well, I have to say that now after putting in well over 800 rds of buckshot and so many rounds of turkey shot etc. I have really grown to love this gun. A tough gun, hard to believe the cost I paid of around $600.00. Later stopped using my go to Mossberg 500 pump for home defense and find this much easier. A great shotgun. Bravo to Stoeger. It is hard to find a OV that will take other chokes other than Cylinder Bore and costing a fortune. This gun does it all. Good build, utilitarian, nice stock and great shooter. So glad I found this gun.

First over/under. Bought my 12ga Stoeger 2 yrs ago for $400 and have had no issues. Only wish it had ejectors but extractors have work fine. I made some adjustments to stock for fit and length of of pull. Great for birds and clays.

[@hombrenola]

I bought my condor over/under 12 ga about 7 years ago and it was the best $550 I've ever spent on a gun. It's tight, accurate and surefire. My next over/under will be a condor .20 guage.

[@UKWildcats1996]

My first firear. Love. It.

[@gregwalker4236]

i think i have a condor 12 gauge side by side, but i haven't shot it in years and years--a safe queen. no complaints--just don't have a range i like anymore. as i am now much older, and have had a detached retina, i'm in the market for a 20 gauge, softer shooter. the tri star setter in 20 gauge is about 50 dollars more but has beretta type choke tubes and five of them-skeet, improved cyl, modified, improved mod and full. potential buyers might want to look at this as well.

I also use a air compressor to help get dust and dirt out of the tight sports

[@sarico7827]

I got a good deal on mine 2 but it was 20ga. Got it for 400. I have only had one major problem but the stoeger people took care of it for free. So I am still happy with it. It's not the best it's not the worst. I've put 100 shells through it.

[@prepper2711]

for the money it's a good gun.

Solid gun. Great value. Have had 0 probs.

[@prepper2711]

I agree..

[@EastboundDwn]

Nice Condor! Btw... springs never wear out.

[@eduffy4937]

They absolutely do take a set over time. I spend about 20hours a week replacing worn out springs in various weapons.

[@2009Berghof]

I shot 2 boxes of shells with my brand new Stoeger Condor in 12 gauge. Took it home to clean it. Put it back together and the tripper locked up. Stoeger said their warranty backlog is 22 weeks!

[@JoseyWales44s]

Good info and a good review. My only suggestion would be to hold the phone sideways so that video is widescreen.

[@prepper2711]

I did a second video about my Stoeger. It goes into greater detail

[@JoseyWales44s]

@@prepper2711 Excellent. I have a wild burr to get an over & under and the Stoeger looks like the way to go. I'll check out your other vid.

Just bought mine getting it shipped to the store and hopefully gets here this week coming up

Get ready to fall in love. It's a grate shotgun

@@prepper2711 about 2 weeks I’m hoping it gets here in one so during the weekend I can go out and shoot some birds because in a week and half I’ll be heading down to Kentucky to shoot some white tail

[@Cdmxforever]

It's a decent shotgun. Mine is 10 years old, no problems.

[@prepper2711]

That's good

[@jaredwhite489]

Look up Mossberg chokes it tells you what the notches mean. The less notches the more restrictive it is.

[@airbornesoldieramerica7125]

@Brian Kopetz, Guess this is the poor mans version of the over/under. I am thinking about getting one,on a clearance sale tomorrow if its still there. My brother law has a Stoeger shotgun think its semi-auto. He said he likes his. HOW DO YOU LIKE YOURS ? ANY PROBLEMS ? I like to have a over/under for my gun collection, cause this is one of the very few guns I don't own yet. I don't want to spend $800.00 on up for a over and under. Glad to see Stoeger made this gun for a working or poor man's income.

[@prepper2711]

Overall I am genuinely impressed with this shotgun. Is incredibly accurate. Very easy to pick up on a moving Target. I have taken this shotgun to several shooting competitions. And outperform. Higher-end shotguns like Beretta's, and Benelli. The only things that I don't like about this gun. Is I don't recommend shooting steel shot through this gun. One other thing I ran into. There was a burr on the front are the receiver ground a Groove on the caming part of the receiver. It was not very deep but if you ran your fingernail acrostic you could definitely tell it was there. I can make a video explaining in Greater detail about this shotgun...

[@johnbush2603]

Hi I’m interested in getting into trap shooting would you recommend this as a good quality gun for a beginner in trap shooting?

[@prepper2711]

Yes I would. The first time I shot this gun.. out of the box. I was consistently hitting. 28 out of the 30 clay birds. That were thrown. I will recommend getting chokes.

[@acode1719]

I’ve been look to get one just of curiosity on how the over/under is What’s the weight on it compare to an 870 pump

[@prepper2711]

I don't know what the difference in weight is.. But I can this. The over-under is more balanced . And my Remington 870 I have feels more front-heavy. If your wanting a good bird gun I would go with the over-under. But if you want something that is 1 gun do all I would go with the 870.. The one thing I love about my over under is it is a very accurate shotgun. It is heavy but felt recoil is not bad at all. I have shot all of my shotguns one handed at some point in time.

[@daleosborn3729]

I own both. The 870 is 1.4lbs heavier

[@JohnDoe-kl8cd]

Is the trigger heavy? I get the glass part. I wasnt sure what he meant by "like a double action revolver", is the Stoeger trigger weight around 8lbs?

[@prepper2711]

It's not a heavy trigger at all. My gun has a 6 pound trigger. Stock

[@gointo8823]

which condor model is this gun? and did you shoot steel?

[@prepper2711]

Yes I have. Not much

[@Flisix]

does it come with a choke or just a stock barrel size because i think mine came with a full choke

[@prepper2711]

My gun came with. improved cylinder joke and a modified choke. Should be a three notch and a four notch

[@rossysossy]

How much did you get it for? Dickson has it on sale for 499 but that still seems a tad bit high for me to invest in another shotgun

[@prepper2711]

I payed 475 after tax. My wife worked at Rural King. So I got a bit of a discount

[@ryanstone9224]

I got mine for $400 at Cabela’s

[@gregb6469]

I paid $382 (with tax) for a like-new one that had been traded in at Bass Pro.

[@TheRealBatCave]

700 cdn, brand new worth it?

No. It only has extractors
