Pretty nice shotgun. Watch another video and they claim its going to cost about 900. Wonder if they can make modify it to carry mags.

it may look cool but essentially it is nothing special unless it it fully auto. I have an arsenal of pumps for 180.00 new so why would u even think of spending 900 on something like that????? Hell a seiga is only 480 new!!!!

The fact that it has two under-barrel magazines that carry 14 rounds isn't special to you?

It's a compact, pump-action shotgun that carries 14 rounds. That's pretty damn good if you ask me. I don't see what's so special about full-auto shotguns, aside from overkill.

Amen to that.

- 2x 7-round tubes => 14 + 1
- selector switch to fire between either barrel => you can carry 7 buckshot and 7 slugs and fire either at will
- bullpup design => shorter overall length; great for urban scenarios, especially home defense
- shell ejection down => ambidextrous bullpup design
- disassembles into 5 pieces

During the Shot Show, this was the best showcase I saw. Great design and engineering. Kel-Tec is following FN's innovative designs.

My only question is how easy can you tactical reload with the bullpup design. Probably just takes practice.

BTW, full-auto boomsticks are over-hyped. Myself being in some tactical shotgun training, pumps can keep up with full-auto shotty any time, exception might be the AA-12. The guy in above video is firing too slow. Probably under the direction of the producer. But, pumps can keep up with full-autos.

Definitely. Its on my wishlist as well. My only question is what to load in each tube:

- 7 slugs & 7 buckshots
[OR]
- 7 buckshots & 7 birdshots w/ 6 slugs on side saddle

Actually, that's a good question. How easy is it to install a side saddle on a KSG? Being a bullpup, best place to have a side saddle would be the pump-slide. I like to configure my firearms where you can transition from left- to right-hand with no problem.

Reason why I would consider loading birdshots for defensive purposes is overpenetration. What if your assailant is in front of a window and you fire buckshots? Some buckshots may miss your target, go thru your window, and into whatever is beyond. In a world filled with lawyers, you gotta keep liability in mind.
