Description

The Winchester SXP Woodland Defender 20GA Hybrid is a lightweight, fast-handling pump shotgun designed for defense, utility, and field versatility. Its 18-inch FDE Perma-Cote barrel and Woodland camo composite stock deliver a rugged, weather-resistant finish built to perform in any environment—at home, in camp, or on the move.

At the heart of the SXP is Winchester’s renowned inertia-assisted Super X Pump system, one of the fastest pump actions in the industry. The four-lug rotary bolt, chrome-plated chamber and bore, and Back-Bored barrel technology ensure smooth cycling, reliable lockup, and tight, consistent patterns.

The Defender’s 18″ cylinder-bore barrel is ideal for home-defense distances while still offering excellent flexibility with interchangeable Invector-Plus choke tubes for small game, birds, hogs, or deer. A brass bead sight is included, plus a removable TRUGLO fiber-optic front sight for enhanced visibility.

Additional upgrades—such as the Inflex recoil pad, drilled-and-tapped receiver for optics, Speed-Plug system, reversible safety, and durable E-coated magazine tube—make this shotgun a standout performer in both defensive and field roles.

Whether you need a dependable home-defense shotgun, a camp utility gun, or a versatile 20GA platform with reduced recoil, the Winchester SXP Woodland Defender is built to handle it all.
