Product Description

Easy to pack and carry, handling buckshot or rifled slugs efficiently through the fully chrome plated, 18” fixed cylinder choked barrel (no constriction) for wide patterning. This open choke is also very accurate when using Foster-type slugs. It also has non-glare metal surfaces with a tough composite stock and forearm. Additional features include a five-shot magazine (plus one in the chamber), and a positive, deeply grooved forearm for control and stability.

Whether it’s multi-gun competition or protecting your home and family, the Super X Pump Defender™ is the perfect choice. Its inertia-assisted action, six-shell total ammo capacity, durable composite stock and ribbed forearm give you an edge against any odds.

  • SYNTHETIC STOCK WITH TEXTURED GRIPPING SURFACES gives your hands a sure, non-slip grip and the non-glare matte black finish won’t give away your position
  • TACTICAL RIBBED FOREARM for better control when you need it most
  • HARD CHROME-PLATED CHAMBER AND BORE make these surfaces highly resistant to wear and corrosion
  • FIXED CYLINDER CHOKE barrel handles both slugs and buckshot
  • ALLOY RECEIVER is drilled and tapped for scope bases
  • TRADITIONAL BRASS BEAD FRONT SIGHT offers a fast, natural sight picture
  • ROTARY BOLT with four massive lugs provides strength and solid lockup
  • DROP-OUT TRIGGER GROUP allows easy cleaning
  • CROSSBOLT SAFETY is easily operated, even with gloves
  • BLACK CHROME PROTECTION on the bolt and other components lasts longer than traditional bluing
  • INFLEX TECHNOLOGY RECOIL PAD directs felt recoil down and away from your cheek to reduce flinch and fatigue

Customer Comments & Questions

Customer Reviews

(4 out of 5) Solid. Good value. But LOP…
by from Spotsylvania, VA on

Like my 20 gauge Defender review, this is a good value for the price. Mechanically solid with a nice long forcing cone. Pattern's fine for fixed cylinder choke. Length of pull is 14 inches. Way too long for defensive applications I’m 5’11”. Only “fix” was to replace rear stock with OEM wooden stock from Numrich ($52) that was a good inch shorter. Just an inch less, but greatly improved mounting and handling. Better able to square up to the target and work the action faster. Procured an SXP compatible +1 extension to give me 6 shells in the mag tube.

by from San Francisco, CA on

For my one-bedroom apartment, this shotgun is perfect for home defense. With the18” barrel, it’s easy to navigate dark, small areas. The weapon is light enough and with buckshot, I’m not worried about bullets going through the walls into my neighbors units.

Cannot miss with a Winchester product. Budge shotgun delivers quality and practicality.

(1 out of 5) SOSS:Great - Winchester SXP: Terrible
by from Wimberley, TX on

First, Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore is great, I've ordered many times from them and will again, however... 10 rounds in the shotgun failed to eject a spent shell. The trigger was stuck back, the action would not pump. I had to disassemble it to get the shell out not even knowing for sure if the shell was spent or not and I could Winchester and it took them a week to figure out it needed to be replaced and a week later they still haven't sent out my replacement. Their estimated time will put it at a month total time but they be sure to tell you to give them 3 to 5 extra days incase their estimated time is wrong.

(5 out of 5) SXP.........WOW!
by from Lutz, FL on

I Love my shotgun!! Sportsmans is the best, hands down. Great Price and Fast Service.

(5 out of 5) Great Shotgun and Great Value
by from Nixa, MO on

I typically would have purchased the Remington 870 because that is the shotgun I'm most used to. But I went with the Winchester SXP 12 gauge and have NO REGRETS WHAT SO EVER! I actually purchased two of these shotguns, but have not yet had the chance to live fire them. That being said, the shotguns seem to be quality made & the action is smooth. My final cost was outstanding and Winchester was amazingly fast in sending my rebates.
