At SHOT Show 2024, Winchester Arms has introduced two new models to their firearm lineup: the Winchester Ranger, a lever-action rimfire rifle chambered in .22LR, and a new range of SX4 Defender shotguns, designed for the tactical market. Both models carry the Winchester legacy forward with features catering to specific applications in shooting.

Winchester ensures durability and lightweight balance by constructing the Ranger with an aluminum receiver, complemented by a hard anodized finish. Users can expect enduring longevity, even with extensive use. The trigger, hammer, and lever are crafted from steel, enhancing the rifle’s overall performance and resilience. An added feature that stands out is the firing pin design, suitable for dry firing, offering ample opportunities for training purposes, especially beneficial for young or new shooters.
