Kel-Tec firearm fans are familiar with the company's KSG lineup of shotguns, which are equipped with twin magazine tube for increased capacity. However, the original KSG and the KSG-25 are heavy and unwieldy with a full loadout, so the company aimed to provide consumers with a light, compact, maneuverable option for personal defense in the form of the KS7. This new design features a single, under-barrel tube magazine that reduces capacity over the company's original KSG but makes the gun lighter, smaller and easier to handle.
