    Picked up a Kel-Tec KSG

    There's a pawn shop here in my town that I try to stop by at least once a month...not necessarily to buy but just in case they get a handgun or something interesting. Saturday I stopped by and saw this KSG. Figured I'd pick it up.

    Looks pretty cool. What choke is in that? CYL? I would be tempted to use it as a treestand deer slayer.

    Read a couple of magazine tests of it that were positive. Unfortunately don't know anyone who has one, until now.

    I've been wanting one for a few years. I think the KSG is one of the few modern designs that actually provides a substantial advantage over older designs.

    What do I know, not much really. Google is our friend however.

    Reading this don't cheap out on a forward grip. Trust metal and cross bolts to secure one to the rail, not a 1 point contact in the groove of the Pic rails.

    On the video I would comment that the user, (who isn't using a forward vertical grip ends up with his hand possibly less than 1" from the muzzle. Given the shortness of this weapon a very strong and positive hand stop is what I'd put on it if I owned one.

    Correct. I'm going to buy a aluminum rail that goes over the original.

    This is a few things I'm going to pick up for it..havent looked around much so I'll be "price shopping" next.

    I've got one. Had it for about a year now. Had some problems with it not cycling in the next shell, but found out that it was the forearm rest I placed on it. After I shortened it, so the action would go all the way back, it works great!

    Fantastic gun. Easy to carry and points naturally. I have the black furniture over brushed stainless steel metal version.

    I love mine.

    I started a thread somewhere where I posted some pics of it. I think it was in the General Firearms section.
