New Kel-Tec Shotgun

[erwos]

I think by "jamming", they were talking about the short-stroking. When you get down to it, that's not something the pump gun designer can fix. The unloading thing was weird, I admit.

You think maybe August/September of 2012?

Think I will be selling my Mossberg 590 Marine and replacing it with one of these KSG's.
If anyone is interested in the Mossy, let me know.

They put that up at the beginning of the year im not holding my breath.

They've got 25 days left... not likely it's gonna happen in any quantities that would really classify as worthwhile. I could almost believe they could get a few dozen out, but even that might be a stretch.

Is there a reason that short strokes were more prevalent than usual? You can short stroke a good number of shotguns, but you usually don't see them mentioned in reviews as I imagine the incidence is quite low. Is there some kind of hitch that gives false kinesthetic feedback and makes it possible to consistently cause a failure?

 

[erwos]

I think that the compact nature of the KSG makes it "different" to work the pump, in the sense that your arm isn't extended as far out as on, say, an 870.

What would you be looking to get out of the 590? As pictured?

AS PICTURED????? does that mean with the stand

Now that is what I call a home defence shotgun. Boom.

Yes, I want the fridge and pvc pipe too...

 

[Schwabe]

This is going to be a big one for people :



Also price, i think if you could "fix" those 2 issues more people would be on board

I think even at this price they will be hard to come by. The RFB currently sells for around $1,700 and you can hardly find one. they just do not have the production capacity to oput them out in any number. If we get more than 10 in the DC/Balto area in the first 6 months I would be really surprised.

Im just glad its up on the main board of products instead of development, they claim absolutely by the end of the year.

However, I would like to see a few rounds of this thing get out there till the price drops and the bugs get out. Probably about March or July Ill be a buyer. Plus I would really prefer one in OD and I know they do periodic runs on OD molds.

(Sort of like me waiting for a very specific 300 blackout platform, Spikes no sight tower and MOE grips).

 

[LineofSight]

Still nothing with only a few weeks remaining in the year. Guess its another keltec hype and no delivery.

If it is ever delivered I don't foresee much in possible bugs...

Supposedly several hundred KSGs were shipped to distributors:

I would expect these to go for retail-plus.

And they are only slowly going to get out there. Realistically we are talking spring to prices become tolerable (and I really want OD).
