st: Estimating Simultaneous Equations Models with GMM 3SLS estimator |

Hello,
I am estimating a two-equation linear simultaneous equations model
where the 'exogenous' variable in one equation might be correlated
with the error in the other equation.
To estimate the model I used traditional 3SLS with the reg3 command in
Stata. However, I read in Woolridge' Manual (Econometric Analysis of
Cross Section and Panel Data, chapter 9.6) that
"the traditional 3SLS estimator is generally valid only when
instruments are uncorrelated with all errors". It is the GMM 3SLS
estimator that must rather be used to produce consistent estimations.
In the reg3 command there is no GMM option, so I am wondering which
command I should use to estimate my simultaneous equation model with
the GMM 3SLS estimator.
Thank you.
