Where do I find a Stoeger Cougar 8040f owner's manual & accessories?

[Justin]

Hello there, I just purchased a used Stoeger Cougar 8040f, and was wondering if anyone knew where to locate a replacement owner's manual? Also, where can I find accessories such as grips, holsters, magazines, etc? And, can I use Beretta stuff instead and if so, what model? Thanks!

Not sure about the manual, but if you have a question on take down or cleaning, just ask and someone here can definitely help. After market stuff is all over the net or pretty much any local gun store. Also, yes you can use Beretta parts because it's the exact same gun. Beretta bought Stoeger and moved the Cougar factory from Italy to Turkey. The only difference is price and the Stoeger mark.

Go to the Stoeger website and you can download the manual. The Beretta model #'s are the same as Stoeger's.
Galco, Bianchi, etc. all make holsters. Grips can be found at Hogue's website.

This is a few months old, but just in case someone gets here via Google, here is the link that was requested:

This is for the 8000 series, which includes the 8040. If for some reason the direct link doesn't work, I got it from here:

In the Product Manuals drop down menu, choose "Manuals in Catalog", and from there you can easily find the 8000 Cougar.
