I'm looking for a mag extension for a Smith Wesson 3000. Any ideas?

Choate sells a S&W 3000 extension.
The 3000 compatible extensions are no longer listed on the site, so just email them to ask which will model fit.

Choate said they stopped making them several years ago
Any other ideas?
Thanks

New gun!

I had an old S&W pump retired police car gun... would it have likely been a 3000?
This was 10+ years ago and it was long out of production then so I traded it for a S&W .38 wheel gun.

Thats what this is a Police trade in but I would like to add a extension

Sorry 'bout that.

The only possible source might be Gun Parts Corporation.
They bought all the S&W parts, and did sell original mag extensions, folding stocks, and other police accessories.

Note that after S&W dropped the Model 3000, Mossberg picked it up and sold it as their Model 3000 for about a year.
Gun Parts has parts under both brands:

You'd have to contact them to see if they might have one lying around that's not listed on the site.
Other options are to have a custom extension made up, or to buy a genuine Remington factory extension kit, and have a machine shop make up a new coupling that will fit the 3000.

I "think" there's someone who makes custom extension, but I can't remember his internet ID.
