Winchester SXP Defender 18 in 12 ga Pump-Action Shotgun

Winchester SXP Defender 12 Gauge Pump-Action Shotgun, 18-Inch Barrel

The Winchester SXP Defender combines an 18-inch barrel with an inertia-assisted pump action and a lightweight aluminum-alloy receiver. Its fixed composite stock, textured grip panels and deeply ribbed forearm provide a secure hold, while the Inflex 1 recoil pad helps manage felt recoil. Non-glare matte metal finishes and a hard chrome-plated chamber and bore round out this practical 12 gauge design.
