The Stevens 320 Security delivers reliable performance for home defense and tactical applications with its chrome-lined barrel and ghost ring sight system. This 20 gauge shotgun combines the manageable recoil of the smaller bore with proven pump-action reliability that law enforcement and civilians trust.
What Makes This Different
The chrome-lined 18.5-inch barrel provides superior corrosion resistance and extends barrel life compared to standard steel barrels. The fixed thumbhole stock offers enhanced control and faster target acquisition than traditional straight stocks. Ghost ring sights deliver quick target alignment in low-light conditions where iron sights or beads fall short.

Field testing shows consistent cycling with various 20 gauge loads from light target rounds to heavy waterfowl ammunition.
