We propose a string theory realization of three-dimensional $\mathcal{ N}=4$ quiver gauge theories with special unitary gauge groups. This is most easily understood in type IIA string theory with D4-branes wrapped on holomorphic curves in local K3's, by invoking the St\"uckelberg mechanism. From the type IIB perspective, this is understood as simply compactifying the familiar Hanany-Witten (HW) constructions on a $T^3$. The mirror symmetry duals are easily derived. We illustrate this with various examples of mirror pairs.
