The Winchester SXP Hybrid Defender in 20 gauge (brand part no. 512458695) is a pump-action shotgun built around an 18-inch barrel, giving home-defense shooters a lighter-recoiling alternative to 12 gauge in a durable hybrid build. Winchester pairs an aluminum receiver in Gray Perma-Cote with a composite stock finished in Forged Carbon hydrodip, adds a fiber optic front sight and crossbolt safety, and chrome-plates the bore and chamber. Among pump-action shotguns, the SXP Hybrid Defender favors shooters who want a lighter, 20-gauge home-defense build.
