Of all the videos I've found this one is by far the easiest one to understand and to follow along with. Kel-Tec has some pretty unique items, this being no different. Good job explaining sir.
A small suggestion, a spot light on the individual parts you’re discussing as you go would help everyone see it a little better. Good explanation though. Thanks.
I highly recommend getting the trigger & spring kit from M CARBO & then a butt pad from MISSOURI TACTICAL. Also a receiver cover to save your face from ice cold metal to face contact. Have fun.
Good info. Was on the fence with the KSG, the recoil and the CA prices, then found one for $587 online (a "4th of July" sale). So I pulled the trigger(pun intended😂). Just waiting for delivery to my FFL.

@@sheldonjplanktonn The KelTec KSG is great...However, after using it I had some buckshots left in the chamber and couldn't get them out so had to shoot them out. Is there a way to remove the the buckshots without having to cycle them through the chamber?

I got a titanium finish ksg months ago and have heavily modified it since. My only advice is definitely get a recoil pad and some sort of forward grip.
Just got mine and I’m having an issue with the right magazine tube double feeding. Upon a Google search I come to find out that others are having a similar issue because the manufacturer sent it out with a broken part. 🤨
My KSG pump jams when the bolt is half way back, requiring me to beat the angled grip on something solid to unjam it. Can't find any information online.
Wait, so you pull down on the pump release lever & rack it to put one in the chamber (got it) after that, can you just pull the trigger? Or you said “after that, you can just simply PUMP, fire, pump & fire” So you have to rack it again after racking 1 in the chamber? 3:35-3:50 I went to the range with some buddies and everyone was having problems. They’d load it, rack it, line up their target, pull the trigger & nothing would happen. (Safety was obv off) I’m trying to figure out where we kept going wrong.
Pump release. Rack a shell into the chamber. Fire. Once the 1st shell has been fired, there's no need to utilize the pump release. If it's not firing with a live shell loaded into the chamber, call Customer Service.
@@KingdomChristianI remember them briefly being on sale for $600 right before The Coof and 'Saint Floyd's Summer of Love' hit... Then they shot up to $1,000+.

I was at KelTec almost 15 years. I left for an opportunity at Century Arms / Canik USA. It didn't work out, so now I just troll social media and answer questions.
@chadderick1 well I love your videos. Super helpful. I'm not real happy with canik myself. But I've always loved the ingenuity of kel tec. And you are my sensei for kel tec breakdowns. Best wishes to you brother in the future. You do great breakdowns.
I put a light, recoil pad, side carrier, red dot ,and fore grip to keep my hand clear of the barrel some grip tape its my go to when things go bump in the night
It handles everything from 1-3/4 inch mini shells up to 3 inch. Capacity with 3 inch shells is generally 6+6+1 if the shells are tightly crimped. Some slugs (depends on brand) have a large crimp that makes getting 6 in very difficult or not possible.
I wish you showed how to clear the weapon rather than just saying make sure its cleared. I just got this gun and I am really unsure how to make sure there isn't a live round stuck in it somewhere.
1) Press the pump disconnector tab and hold while racking the pump to the rear, to extract any shell that may be chambered. 2) Remove any shell that may have been extracted, and visibly look to make sure that the chamber is empty. 3) With the pump in the rearward position, there is a spring-loaded serrated steel tab at the bottom rear of each magazine tube, that can be depressed to individually eject each shell from the tubes. 👍
It has an extractor/elevator mechanism, somewhat similar to any other pump sg. ...The difference is that there is a switch that you have to actuate that blocks off one tube or the other. ...Otherwise it would extract shells from both at the same time, and cause a jam. This also means that you have to reach into the receiver with your thumb and switch to the second tube when the first tube goes empty (I never hear anyone point out that detail). And as a side note, if I recall correctly, the switch also has a middle setting that blocks off both tubes. ...Which could potentially come in handy as a temporary 'Idiot-Proofing' measure, if you keep it loaded but leave the chamber empty.😉
Great explanation, but….I agree with the comment re the spotlight. You’ve got a very dark gun on a very dark black mat and very poor lighting on the subject. You need a second person operating the camera to get closer to the subject. Again great explanation but too bad we couldn’t see what you’re doing.

I did too, because I own a glock 😂😂😂

Very useful guide. I've been thinking about getting a KSG. This has convinced me to buy one! 🙂
It's very much worth it. Very nice gun

Have fun.
This is great. So simple. Lots of other vids on this make it much harder than it needs to be.
Just purchased a KSG this month, Excited to go to the range and shoot it. Keltec truly has come a long way
Good info. Was on the fence with the KSG, the recoil and the CA prices, then found one for $587 online (a "4th of July" sale).
So I pulled the trigger(pun intended😂). Just waiting for delivery to my FFL.
Really appreciate the video guys! Very well made. And I love my ksg! Most badass shotgun on the market
Comes with sling👍. Life time warranty👍
I just picked up this beauty yesterday. It's my new favorite boomstick.
Picking up my KSG from FFL tomorrow….can’t wait to take it to the range!
Why when it doesn't need a ffl

I should be receiving my KSG in 4 days. Looking forward to it
Just ordered mine. I can't wait to go pick it up.
Well... That was dead simple. I'm pretty sure this will be my first firearm purchase ever 👍
Just got mine two weeks ago and I love it!!😁😁👍🏿👍🏿
Amazing video :) It's very helpful for a new owner:) Greetings from Poland.
I just bought one, thank you for the quick tips
Just got one of these. First kel tec .can't wait to run this
Great video for KSG shotgun beginners like myself...thank you!
How do you like it?

@@fredmore8788 If you reach into the ejection port and lift up on the cartridge stop, the spring tension in the magazine tube will spit the shell out.
Just got my KSG 12 need to wait 10 days super exited
Putting it on lay away this week ❤
hey KEL TEC I love all of your guns you make really cool guns ever scince i saw the KSG i wanted it and i am gonna go buy it
Thank you!... I just got my KSG a year ago, and i was having trouble getting into that pesky box.😤

What grip is comparable
That Glock mag 😂😂 bid 🎉😂😂 omg, I spit my coffee out my nose ☕️ 😭 😂 so dead 💀💀
Sorry about that, lol
Fun shotgun. Make sure to not be soft when racking a new shell. You’ll know what I mean after you take it to the range 😂
The glock mag made me spit out my coffee....you monster
My bad, lol
Do one for the KSG410 please...
When is the semi auto version of the keltec KSG 410 coming out? I can’t wait.
Bonus points for taking Glock mags!
It's a fun Firearm! You can hit paper at 50 yards with a 1oz slug..good enough for what it is :)
pick one up last 2 week ago for $550 at PSA 😍
Damn that was a Steal
Just got mine! Can’t wait to try it out.
BTW, what brand of band do you have on that Apple Watch? Anyone know?
Not sure of the brand, but I got it on Amazon in 3 different colors. They're inexpensive and the quality has been great.
just pushed some rounds thru this bad boy nice 1
I thought something was wrong with mine at first because I didn’t know the pump had to be released to load the first shell.
I’m going to backfill mine with epoxy so the Glock mag won’t fall out. 🤣
Hahaha... You're an innovator.
Hope you make one of these for the SU-16.
The idea of the 410 got me lusting. I think ill get a 12 for me and 410 for my sweet girl.
Thank you

Any update on this issue?...

Call Customer Service. The number is on the back of your manual.
How does the carry strap actually attach to the 410??? Am I right to assume that it is a single point carry strap?
Should come with foregrip. Too easy to blow your left hand off. Love my KSG and use short shells in it. 24!

Is that optics rail on top metal? I saw a video where the optic would move around with alot of shooting and thats very concerning
It's aircraft grade aluminum. If the optic is moving, the optic isn't mounted properly.

@@shaunsteele4968 Much appreciated. I'm glad to help.
For the price, reliability, capacity, and thump, there is no better home / personal defense shotgun. Plus, it takes Glock mags!
Can you clean and lube it without taking out that bolt ?
You can. Or you can disassemble it (field strip) completely for a thorough cleaning.
Can I put a cable lock on this??
I put a light, recoil pad, side carrier, red dot ,and fore grip to keep my hand clear of the barrel some grip tape its my go to when things go bump in the night
How does this handle 2 1/2" shells? and what is the capacity increase over using 3" shells?
It handles everything from 1-3/4 inch mini shells up to 3 inch. Capacity with 3 inch shells is generally 6+6+1 if the shells are tightly crimped. Some slugs (depends on brand) have a large crimp that makes getting 6 in very difficult or not possible.
Mine isn't extracting mini shells...
It's not guaranteed to cycle mini shells, however most KSGs will cycle them after a break-in period.
Are you guys accepting any internship positions for mechanical engineering college students?
I wish you showed how to clear the weapon rather than just saying make sure its cleared. I just got this gun and I am really unsure how to make sure there isn't a live round stuck in it somewhere.

ca here, so if it takes glock mags, and i add a scree tolmake it a fixed mag does that allow me to make it scary? aka add scary features? lol
I really think I’m getting one…this is a pretty BAD ASS gun …Yes I’m getting one …PROBABLY getting divorced too for buying guns to often …F-it 😂
How does the shell on left and right tube transfer to barrel?

quick start guide lol I love it lol cock and rock!

If you want your KSG to work, you will need to rack the ever living crap out of the pump.
Wow, it takes Glock mags
