Just picked his up the other day. IIRC, this particular iteration was introduced at the 2016 SHOT Show but (interestingly) Winchester's website says that it's already been discontinued.
Does anyone know exactly what type of tan finish this is?

WHOA! About as unique as a door buster can be. Looks like a survivor within any hostile environment, including SCUBA.

Very nice looking piece...
The finish is probably CeraKote...a very durable process. here's a link to read about it: http://www.cerakoteguncoatings.com/ |

Interesting site and coating. The tan shades have the look of desert storm military.

Although I am a wood and blue type of guy this is a very nice looking shotgun! Cerakote is very durable. If I was going to have a firearm to use in any terrain this is the way to go. By the way welcome to the forum!

Did yours come with the sling mate?

No, sling and swivels were purchased separately. |

Thinking of slinging mine also. SXP 20ga in dark earth. My brain just can't get around mounting a steel
detachable swivel to that tiny eye let bottom rear of the stock. Kind of leaning to the dog collar approach. Wraps around stock between receiver and grip. Just as long as no interference with release button occurs, at least there is a metal ring to secure a crab claw to. |
