I would guess if any jamming issues occur in the inertia shotguns..it could be the recoil spring.  Changed mine out and havent had one issue with cycling or jamming since unless it is some light load for clays.  I have two friends with the 3500 and havent had any issues.

Hey guys, I'm seriously considering saving myself $900 bucks and going with the Stoeger M3500 for my Duck and Goose gun. I'm wondering if anybody has any actual in person experiences with this model, good or bad? The reason for the upgrade is simple; I want to be able to chamber a 3 1/2in shell. Last weekend I cracked a Drake mallard 3 times, twice with 3in 1 1/4 oz #2 and once with a 3in BB backer at about 45 yards. Feathers flying every time. I swear the darn thing gave me the finger as it flew off. My gun now is a Winchester M1300 with a Mod Choke Shooting Xpert HV 3in. Anybody want to throw in their  :twocents: ?

I’ve had this gun for years and it’s done so well for me. I’ve never had a single jam even when there’s mud and marsh grasses involved.

My personal favorite is to get black clouds (if I find them on a deal $$$$$) cause they are a deadly combo with this gun. I’ve shot 3.5”s one time through this gun at a couple geese and it was fine. I didn’t think it was necessary but why not lol.

Since it’s a 3.5” chamber you can even use it for turkey if that’s something you’d want to do. It’s versatile as heck in my opinion. I don’t see this shotgun slowing down for me anytime soon.

I've got the 3500, its been a good reliable shotgun for me for the last 8 years. only issue I've ever had with it was a stuck a choke tube in it by running too high pressure of a load through too tight of a choke. New barrel and its good as new. i will say they're a bit heavy but the nice thing is it soaks up the recoil. i would try to find it for less than 900 though, i gave 595 for mine in max 4
