Cold mornings on the sounds call for a gun that cycles when the weather turns nasty. The Winchester SX4 Waterfowl in 20 gauge has a 26" barrel, holds four rounds, and wears a Realtree Legacy camo pattern.

The SX4 is a semi-automatic gas-operated shotgun, which means the action does part of the work of recoil control. Twenty gauge gives lighter recoil than twelve, which is a plus for youth shooters, smaller adults, or anybody who hunts a long day. A recoil pad and a bit of range time go a long way toward comfortable shooting. It is a gun to carry through brush, a boat, or a field, so give it the care a working tool deserves.

A 26" barrel is a nice balance for ducks and geese over decoys and for doves in the field. The camo covers the gun so birds do not flare as quickly. Legacy is a pattern built for marsh and timber, good for a lot of the swamp and creek bottoms in eastern North Carolina.

Clean it after wet hunts.

This is a premium shotgun priced accordingly. New. It ships to a North Carolina FFL dealer for pickup and the background check.
