Crafted for home defense, the Kel-Tec KS7 Compact 12 Gauge Shotgun features a 6+1 or 7+1 magazine capacity and a compact, bull-pup design. This firearm also includes a fiber-optic bead sight, a carry handle and a rear loading system with downward ejection.

I really enjoy shooting the KS7. It's just so different from other shotguns I own. Add in the fact it's smaller than most short-barreled shotguns, and you get seven rounds, and that's just the cherry on top.

The KS7 might be short and slim on the outside, but it's long under the hood. Its 18.5″ magazine tube holds 6+1 or 7+1 depending on your choice of shell size. The 18.5″ barrel gives you plenty of 12ga velocity to maximize the performance of your preferred loads.

In 2008, KelTec jumped into the shotgun world when it introduced the KSG, a dual-tube, 14-shell variant that made its way into a few editions of the “Call of Duty” video games. Fast forward to 2020, and KelTec took the next step and released the KS7, a slimmed-down version of its now popular scattergun.
