The Kel-Tec KSG Compact is a radically engineered 12-gauge pump-action shotgun built around one core idea: pack maximum firepower into the smallest legal footprint. At 26.1 inches overall and tipping the scales at just 6.8 pounds, this is a shotgun that doesn't apologize for its size or capability. The dual-tube magazine system gives you genuine tactical flexibility—four 3-inch shells in each tube, plus one chambered, for nine rounds of total capacity. Switch between ammunition types on the fly without reloading the entire gun.
The KSG Compact's 18.5-inch cylinder bore barrel delivers the ballistics you need in a profile compact enough for tight spaces, vehicles, and close-quarters work. The patented downward ejection system is a game-changer for ambidextrous shooters or anyone working in teams; brass ejects cleanly away from your face and your teammate's, no matter which shoulder you shoot from. That forward grip with integrated light rail means you're ready to mount modern accessories from day one. The 5-pound trigger breaks cleanly without creep, making fast, accurate follow-up shots natural.
This is a purpose-built shotgun for serious shooters. The engineering is distinctly Kel-Tec—unconventional, innovative, and uncompromising on function. Home defense, tactical training, or specialized duty work: the KSG Compact delivers capability in a package no conventional shotgun can match. The design is also ready for NFA short-barreled-shotgun conversion if you want to go even smaller, though it already meets all legal length requirements out of the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different ammunition types without reloading the entire gun?
Yes. The dual-tube magazine system lets you load different 3-inch shells in each tube and switch between them during use, so you can alternate between buckshot and slugs or other specialty rounds without emptying the magazines.
Is the KSG Compact truly ambidextrous?
Functionally, yes. The patented downward ejection system ejects shells straight down, away from the shooter and others regardless of shoulder or shooting position, eliminating the traditional right-handed-only brass spray. Both left- and right-handed shooters can operate it equally.
What's included with the forward grip?
The forend/forward grip comes with an integrated light rail, allowing you to mount modern tactical lights or other rail-mounted accessories directly.
Can this gun be converted to a short-barreled shotgun?
The design supports NFA short-barreled-shotgun conversion, though the KSG Compact already meets all legal length requirements in its current 26.1-inch configuration.
