M.A.Gnun Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) just bought me a brand new sxp winchester - although not made in the usa, winchester still keep an eye on quality control and gave the turks the rights to produce them to to winchester spec and standards - i heard that the first batch were knocked back by winchester and quality control was stepped up (OR ELESE) - love the look and feel- LOVELY SMOOTH ACTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH ALMOST CYCLES ITSELF ! but I need to lengthen the lop which is a very shy 13 3/4 . my rfd has ordered me 4 x 1/4 spacers to take it out to 14 3/4 lop - i got it from mick vokes (wabbitbosher) who ordered it for me and i collected it 10 days after ordering -looks alot like the tactical style which i like and with its matt finish no glare on sunny days -it comes with 3 invector chokes and has an iflux recoil pad - you can shoot is as fast as a semi once you get used to the effort less pumping -im going to get the sx3 next ! anyone got either of these ? what are your thoughts on either or both models guys/dolls (pc ) ?? check out these links i know you will want one too ? :o Edited April 12, 2012 by hmr-savage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildfowler12 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I like them, I decided on a Supernova though as I wanted a 3 1/2' and the mechanism is simpler. I know the super magnum SXP is already out in the states and due over here within 12 months though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve0146 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I have the SXP and love it. I stripped it down today after a rattling noise this morning and parts had worked loose. A quick tighten and we were back in business. Mine was brand new in October and has had all kinds of shells through it. Two stoppages so far, both my fault for not pumping it properly. I have discussed it in other thread but I also have a browning semi and a Side by side but prefer this. You can see it in action in the video section under 'crow cradles'. As you say, just as quick as a semi when you get the hang of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
