Title: Stoeger M3020 Noisy Stock
Post by: tman74 on March 12, 2022, 03:38:39 PM
Does anyone have any tips on quieting down the hollow plastic sound in the stock and foregrip? I stuffed the stock with grocery bags which helped with the noise but the foregrip still sounds hollow and noisy.

Thanks

Moleskin or fleece with adhesive backing, archery guys used it a lot back in the day!

Check out the Beartooth stock covers. I put one on my 3020 for that very reason & it fit perfect.

Has anyone tried the Mcnett camo form fabric for quieting down the stock?

Thanks I'll check those out right now. I stuffed the buttstock with plastic bags and took some of the noise away but the forend is still loud. Where I notice it is when belly crawling or stalking birds. Anytime a branch brushes against the plastic parts it blows me away at the sound.

I have a new Beartooth  stock cover/comb raising kit/shell holder if you're interested.  It's brown, and I sold the gun I was going to put it on.

Does the Beartooth with shell loops hold 20 gauge shells securely?  Their website advertises the shell loops being for 10/12 gauge which makes me think they would be too big for 20 gauge shells. Does anyone make a good stock cover with 20 gauge loops?
