Back in the day, Winchester called their new-for-2011 Super X shotgun “the pump that thinks it’s an autoloader.” Roger that. The rotary bolt’s action is slicker than oil on ice. I’m still not a fan of the safety’s placement ahead of the trigger; God (and O.F. Mossberg) wants all shotgun safeties on top. But you gotta run the gun you got, if you know what I mean. The new Super X Pump Black Shadow deer gun joins its eleven Turkish-made (yes, there is that) siblings in the Super X lineup. Aside from triggering memories of the legendary Vincent Black Shadow (immortalized by Hunter S. Thompson), the Winchester deer gun offers hunters a 22” rifled barrel, a 3” chamber, a TRUGLO fiber-optic front sight and adjustable rear sight (receiver drilled and tapped for alternative sights) and model-standard black chrome protection. The Super X3 Black Shadow shotgun runs about a grand. The deer-killer is all yours for $520 msrp. You can have any color as long as its black.
