Winchester SXP Marine Defender 20-Gauge Shotgun
The Winchester SXP Marine Defender represents a purposeful design philosophy: build a shotgun that performs reliably in the harshest conditions while remaining accessible to shooters of all experience levels.
Design and Construction
This 20-gauge pump shotgun is engineered specifically to resist corrosion and weathering. The matte chrome steel barrel and chrome-plated chamber and bore provide superior protection against salt spray, moisture, and oxidation—essential features whether you're operating near water, in humid climates, or in demanding field conditions.
The matte aluminum alloy receiver keeps weight manageable while maintaining structural integrity. A satin-finish composite stock and textured grip panels ensure secure handling even when wet or wearing gloves.
