When is Keltec going to make guns that aren't screwed together like my 80s Rambo squirt gun?  They have some neat designs, but they all look like shit that shouldn't be taken seriously.

I really wanted a KSG till I shot one. Even though it wasn't a fun experience what I still would probably buy is an updated version and that also automatically switches to the next tube.

I didn't find the KSG heavy and a lighter version is probably just going to kick harder and be even less pleasant to shoot....

Scope it. mount a small objective variable powered scope as low as possible. I'd use a 1-5x24 shotgun scope with a 50yard parallax.

As with a lot of Kel-tec stuff, it has my attention.

They've only managed to sell me a P32, though.

The pistol, if it works - and the mag worries me - would be hella fun.

The Shotgun... someone above compared it to a Shockwave. Mossberg and Remington have sold the shit out of those, and if this truely similar in size and weight... it would be much more useful. (which is easy, since a Shockwave is nearly useLESS)

Rail is independent of the slide so the dot stays on target.

That B&T looks like a CZ 75 pattern pistol.

This Kel-Tec has more in common with something like a Ruger MkIV or a S&W Victory.

I bought a PMR30 and it has never functioned 100%. It's a fun range blaster but nothing more.
I have zero confidence that the CP33 will ever feed reliably.
Cool concept though.
My understanding of the issues with the PMR30 and the rifle version was from trying to feed and eject that long,, skinny, non-tapered cartridge case. I was really interested the rifle version, but that ammo is really expensive as compared to regular .22LR and the ejection issues.  I did really like the way the rifle's stock collapsed with the side rails. Neat design.

If they come up with a .22LR rifle version, I will own one, if I can ever actually see one.
Most of the issues are feeding related not ejection and largely stem from the magazine and the difficulty in loading properly.

For Kel Tecs size they punch way above their weight in innovation.

They have some truly innovative and interesting designs out.

Hate on their quality control all you want but at least they're not Remington producing the same old tires designs poorly.

I've considered that as well.  OTOH, a longer barrel yields higher velocities, how much more I don't know, so I opted for the pinned FH.  It's a fun gun to shoot as is the CMR.  Loud with little recoil.

My PMR runs just fine on lighter loads and groups well, the CMR only groups well with 40gr and above. Only problem I've had is my bolt stop broke on the CMR but it still functions fine.

I'm not sure I really get the appeal of either one. The KSG is already very compact with high capacity for a shotgun, why make it shorter and lose rounds? Also what the hell is going on with that handle? They try to make it shorter and then nearly double the height with that...thing?

The pistol is a bit more interesting, but I don't care much for "tactical" .22lr pistols. For me, the fun of a .22lr is accuracy. If I'm taking a .22lr pistol to the range it would a target model Ruger or something similar.

I read on another site that the shotguns msrp is $495, if they are around $350 street I will be buying one.

And if their 33rd 22lr mags are reliable they will have revolutionized the market, even the new mk 4 hasn't been able to move away from 10rd mags.

I am still waiting on what they will spit out for a full size 9mm handgun, which they hinted at like three years ago.

Also for the guy who criticized the use of screwed together receivers. Can you not imagine the cost difference between standard style molds and 3d super complicated molds?
I guess they could sonic weld the parts together but I don't think it would be as strong.
The RDB can be had for like $700, while the X95 for example is like $1700, if it wasn't the receiver you would say a Kel-tec that costs as much as a Tavor is a joke.

The Carry Handle is kinda crucial to the design.

1. Plastic CH lowers production cost vs machined aluminum rail of KSG

2. Provides quick and simple integral sight at the proper height for inline stock, further lowering cost to consumer as no need to buy sights vs buying RDS+Riser for KSG.



3. Looks cool, similar to the M41A and Morita space gats:
