Overview

The Kel-Tec KS7 is a 12-gauge pump-action bullpup shotgun that serves as a lighter, simpler, and more affordable alternative to Kel-Tec's dual-magazine KSG. It features a single 6+1 tubular magazine positioned below the barrel, a downward ejection port that makes it fully ambidextrous, and a carry handle with integrated backup sights and a Picatinny rail for optics. The KS7's bullpup configuration achieves an 18.5-inch barrel in a compact 26.1-inch overall package, making it one of the shortest legally configured shotguns available. It has been adopted by home defenders, recreational shooters, and has seen limited law enforcement use for its compact dimensions and ambidextrous design.
