This week we're taking a closer look at the SXP Extreme Defender FDE from Winchester Repeating Arms. A pump-action workhorse, the shotgun comes finished in Flat Dark Earth, with both an adjustable length of pull and drop at comb. A Picatinny rail atop the receiver eases mounting of a red-dot to further improve sighting, though the gun does come from the factory with a ghost-ring setup. For more information on this dual-purpose scattergun, check out the video embedded above, hosted by Editor in Chief Scott Olmsted and Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $549.99; winchesterguns.com.
