Well, this just sucks.
Caleb has video of himself working a Kel-Tec KSG action. The fail? the trigger doesn’t reset if the trigger is held back when you rack the slide. Ooo… that’s not good.
And it’s a shame too. I was just thinking how nice the dual magazine tubes are. I mean, it’s great that the shotgun can use all sorts of ammo, but it sucks that switching ammo is slow. So you’re using buckshot within 15 yards (or maybe 25 with the right ammo), but now you need to transition to a longer shot so you need a slug. You’d have to pull one out of your ammo carrier, drop it in, work the action… it takes time. But with this KSG? one tube is full of buckshot, the other tube has slugs. Just flick the magazine selector and off you go. Of course, I’m not sure if it’s truly faster as I haven’t been able to try the gun. It’s just thinking.
Well, I’d still like to play with one, and who knows… if word gets around about this, maybe Kel-Tec will do something about it.

That got me curious, so I went and got my 590. Sure ’nuff you can rack the slide and the trigger will reset when let forward with a nice click that you can feel.
I’ve never shot a pump that way myself (obviously). Next time I have a timer and a shotgun handy I want to try a mag dump both ways and compare.
I’d be curious to know. Heck, if we can get together at the range one of these times, I’ve got the timer….
Is it bad that I was disappointed that it wasn’t a semi auto?
That’ll be KSG 2.0. 😉
Actually I wonder if they could do it and keep the form factor. Well, let them work the bugs out of this one first….
I have-to think that if they can make it a semi they can work out the trigger-bug.
