I did a seach and didn't find any threads about it....so can I ask some of you more knowledgeable people than me....

Do chokes that fit Benelli SBEII's also fit Stoeger??  Specifically the M3500??  I'm shopping around for chokes and there does not seem to be an option for Stoeger..just the major mfg's of guns
Since Stoeger is made by Benelli/USA...I assume they can be interchanged between guns??  Thanks in advance..

Doesn't the SBE II use the Crio chokes?  The Stoeger uses Benelli Mobile chokes
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Steve,

The chokes that the Stoegers use are a Beretta/Benelli choke which would be the same choke as a Benelli Nova or a Stoeger M2000.  No the Benelli SBEII choke will not fit the Stoeger M3500 as the SBEII uses a Crio-choke system.  I highly suggest going with a Pure Gold .670 choke.

Yes they do...the factory chokes are crio...but i'm talking about after market chokes...i currently shoot a IC .665 (non crio) in my SBEII and it has a very effective pattern   >200 at 40 yrs...

Just looking for info on after market chokes that will fit the threading in a Stoeger 3500...i'm looking at Rhino, Pure Gold, Hevi...etc

Found it and answered my own question...thanks!

All aftermarket chokes for the Stoeger M2000/3500 are standard Beretta/Benelli Mobile chokes
