Hi Fellas, anyone owned one of these and run 3" shells through them? I assume they kick pretty hard but what about cycling them?

I believe almost all Adlers have 3" chambers, it should be stamped on the gun.

cheers for the reply mate, yep they do, was just wondering about whether they have any dramas. Some 3" semi autos have a reputation of not ejecting certain brands or roll crimps.

Looks like you might have to get some and try 'em yourself Mick.
It'll be fun anyway.

Yeah I was sort of basing the purchase around running 3" shells( heavy buckhot loads and Brenneke slugs) and if its a no go, I'll move it on.
