Kel-Tec's KSG shotgun may be the most anticipated firearm of 2011, due to its unusual, innovative design. The high-capacity weapon arrives with twin 7-round magazine tubes, giving operators 15 total rounds when a shell is chambered. The KSG's short barrel and bullpup design give patrol officers flexibility when deploying it from a cruiser. View detailed photos of the weapon, and be sure to read our November "Arsenal" review .

Kel-Tec KSG

The KSG's trigger is positive and controllable.

Cutouts give the shooter a quick read on the KSG's ammo load.

The KSG has Picatinny rails to facilitate the easy addition of optics and lights.

The KSG has excellent ergonomics. The action bar lock/release, safety, and trigger are all within reach of the pistol grip.

Kel-Tec's KSG is only 26 inches but offers much more firepower than conventional pump guns.
