PREVIEW: Kel-Tec Shotgun (KSG)



01-04-2011


The time for secrecy is nearing its end. This SHOT Show, Kel-Tec will be revealing its next ground-breaking product: the KSG (Kel-Tec Shotgun).



The KSG is our first entry into the shotgun market. The size, shape and design are similar to the currently available Kel-Tec RFB rifle, but the KSG ejects downward, instead of forward. The KSG weighs 6.9lbs and is as compact as legally possible with a 26.1" overall length and an 18.5" cylinder bore barrel. Even with this compact size, the internal dual tube magazines hold an impressive 14 rounds of 12 gage 2-3/4" rounds (7 per tube). The simple and reliable pump action feeds from either the left or right tube. The feed side is manually selected by a lever located behind the trigger guard. The lever can be positioned in the center detent in order to easily clear the chamber without feeding another round from either magazine. A cross bolt style safety blocks the sear, and the pump release lever is located in front of the trigger guard.



The pump includes an under Picatinny rail for the mounting of a forward grip, or a light or laser. The included top Picatinny sight rail will accept many types of optics or iron sights. Forward and rear sling loops are built in, and a basic sling is included. The soft rubber butt pad helps to tame recoil.



MSRP has not been officially been set, but we are looking at the $800.00 range.

Oops! Sorry, I didn't see that thread. Actually, I first heard of this Kel-Tec shotgun because it was on the cover of my new Guns & Ammo mag!

I have this on pre-order. I am hoping for October release, but it seems to be delayed a little more now.

I'll wait till after the 1st recall.

Soooo....when the trigger fails to reset, you have to chuck another round in to get it to work (or work the slide)? When was that video made? Maybe it's already been fixed?

That's a standard thing with Kel-Tecs and one of my pet peeves... You don't need to use a KSG, just pickup a P3AT or even a Ruger LCP.

It seems to me like the dual magazine system would take a lot of training to get proficient with. It's still pretty high on the cool factor though.

The prototypes at the Shot Show had issues with reset which have been taken care of in the production guns. I wouldn't expect very many of these to be around until Christmas, but if you need it right now there is one on GunBroker for only three times MSRP: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewIt ... =237564016

HA! Nope, I don't "need" it right now, and certainly NOT for 3 times MSRP! I can wait.

Boy that seems legit.

"Please no emails asking for serial number"
"We will not be displaying this gun in store"
"Please do not call on this item as our phones are too busy"

I guess they never said it was in stock....

Are you sure about that? Because the PF9, P3AT, etc all require an almost full release of the trigger before resetting.
