Winchester Super X3 Classic Field 12 Gauge 26" 3" Chamber Semi-Auto Shotgun
The Winchester Super X3 Classic Field combines Belgian FN manufacturing with Winchester’s proven gas-operated action. Lightweight at just under 7 pounds and finished in corrosion-resistant Perma-Cote UT, this 12 gauge shotgun offers fast handling, a smooth recoil pulse, and a back-bored barrel that patterns efficiently. A 3" chamber, included Modified Invector-Plus choke, and attractive satin walnut furniture make this example a versatile choice for field or clays.

The 26" steel barrel is back-bored to .742" and fitted with a ventilated rib for fast sight alignment. A chrome-plated bore resists fouling, while the ivory front bead provides a quick reference in varied light.
Winchester’s Self-Adjusting Active Valve gas system reliably cycles 2 ¾" and 3" 12 gauge loads while reducing felt recoil. Spent-gas diversion vents excess pressure away, keeping the action cleaner during extended shooting sessions.
The receiver and barrel wear a gun-metal grey Perma-Cote UT finish that guards against corrosion and abrasion. Subtle red SX3 branding and a red accent line on the bolt handle add a modern touch without sacrificing the classic look.
Satin-finished walnut furniture features cut checkering and a right-hand palm swell for secure handling. The 13.0" length of pull and lightweight aluminum-alloy receiver keep the gun lively on the swing.
Proof marks show manufacture by FN Herstal in Liège and import by BACO, Morgan UT, underscoring the shotgun’s quality lineage.
