Kel-Tec KSG Pump Shotgun

kel-tec ksg pump shotgun

Kel-Tec’s KSG series offers a tactical pump-action shotgun for personal and home defense. Kel-Tec is known as an innovative manufacturer, and the KSG line is no different: this shotgun has unique features such as the dual tube magazine, which enables the user to load different types of projectiles.

The KSG Pump Shotgun is a bullpup style, which means it is more compact. This increases maneuverability for the user, which can be crucial in a home defense or other close-quarters scenario.

All models of the KSG Pump Shotgun are chambered for 3” shells, and magazines feature a selector switch for extraordinarily fast reloading.

Built for Defense

The KSG Pump Shotgun is smaller than most tactical shotguns thanks to its bullpup design, with downward-ejecting ambidextrous magazines. This is a highly reliable shotgun intentionally designed to prepare individuals for emergencies.

Kel-Tec KSG Pump Shotgun Standard Features:

  • Compact bullpup design
  • Chambered for 3” shotgun shells
  • Downward-ejecting ambidextrous magazines
  • Dual tube magazine allows shooters to load two different sizes of projectiles
  • Reliable pump action
  • Manual selector lever for extremely fast reload or ammunition change
  • Picatinny-style rail for mounting an optic
