I have a 12 Gauge Condor that came with 26" barrels. Although this gun is excellent for quail hunting, I do not have great success with it dove hunting and had a greater challenge on a recent duck hunt.

Does anyone know if Stoeger provides longer barrels for these over/under shotguns or if any other manufacturer makes barrels for them. Extenstions as long as 4 inches would also suffice.

This addition to my Condor would give me a great upland gun and a great waterfowl gun as well.

A very good question, I also just bought a Condor with the 26" barrels. I've never shot a barrel shorter than 28" so it should be a challenge. Early October will tell the story when I take er' on my first hunt. From the research I've done a slower swing is needed so I'll try that.
If you get any information on the additional barrel lengths let me know!

I think that what c4 is wondering is if a guy can buy additional barrels for the Condor.

I have been wondering if additioal barrels can be purchased for this gun. After spending some time in a gun shop yesterday, I was told that if barrels are not manufactured for the over/under shotgun at the time of the gun itself is made the match will not be within tolerences that these guns demand. The people I know that have extra barrels for their guns did get them with the original gun.

I guess I'm really looking for extensions that I have seen on guns that fit in the choke receivers...so if anyone knows of any please let me know. I'll check with Briley on this subject.

I think what you mean by extentions are just chokes themselves like the Remmington Invictors, If you want to use them with steel shot for duck hunting make sure you buy the appropriate one. Otherwise the price of the Condor probably isn't much more than an extra barrel would have been. Buy a second one.
