This Defender is THE Defender. It can handle 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.
Good value for price. Lightweight. Appears to have a nice long forcing cone. Pattern's fine with 2 or 3 buck. However, 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.
