Kel-Tec KS7 12ga Pump Action Shotgun 16"-18.99" 3" Chamber Green - KSG7GRN

The Kel-Tec KS7 is a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun engineered around the idea that serious defensive firepower doesn't need to weigh you down or demand a full-size safe. At just 5.9 pounds unloaded and 26.1 inches overall, this is a compact 12ga that handles like a rifle—ideal for home defense, truck gun duty, or backcountry security where you need reliable stopping power without the bulk. The ambidextrous controls and integrated carry handle make it equally at home for left- or right-handed shooters, and the gun points naturally whether you're in a tight hallway or working around obstacles.

Built on a 3-inch chamber, the KS7 feeds and fires full-power 12-gauge loads without flinching. The pump action is proven—fast to operate, simple to maintain, and utterly dependable in low-light or high-stress situations. With a 6+1 round capacity (using 3-inch shells), you get meaningful firepower in a package that doesn't sacrifice ergonomics or control for compactness. The 18.5-inch barrel strikes the practical balance between velocity retention and maneuverability indoors, and the 13-inch length of pull fits most adult shooters comfortably without modification.

This is a workhorse, not a range toy. The KS7's green finish breaks up in low light and resists glare, and the whole design prioritizes function over flash. Whether you're securing a remote property, establishing a defensive perimeter at camp, or keeping something serious within arm's reach at home, the Kel-Tec KS7 delivers 12-gauge authority in a form factor that actually works in real-world conditions.
