Kentucky Armory Club

I have seen these things online before and thought they were pretty cool, but I would have to get a good deal and see plenty of reviews before I got one. I shouldered one today and they're badass. It's hard to picture how compact it is through pictures. The KSG is basically a Short Barreled Shotgun without the tax stamp. Now we just have to wait for someone to sell them for less than $1200

they are ver cool looking but not worth 1200.00 to me either

I'm on a couple of waiting lists for a KSG. Oleg Volk is the Kel-Tec photographer and he just posted on his blog about his recent trip to Kel-Tec, and the racks of KSGs awaiting testing. Kel-Tec is a small company, but they are slowly expanding and increasing their production.

I was one of the people who emailed Kel-Tec's chief engineer and asked for a double magazine pump 12 gauge. Kel-Tec is a very customer oriented company.

The KSG should sell for about $600, if Kel-Tec supply could keep up with market demand, but it's not even close. That's why the prices are stratospheric. I'm a little ashamed to admit that I might be willing to pay $1200. I usually hold out for a good deal, but I'll be too old to enjoy it if I waited.

One of the places where I'm on a list apparently sold the last one for $1050. The other place is a tiny rural FFL, that sells everything for $20 over cost! Oh please, oh please, oh please!

Welcome L4E! It's nice to see you found us, here. Yes, I am the same Wyldman as on KTOG.

Supply and demand.

The KSG is very cool. I wish I could shoot one to see if they're worth the $600.

Glad you made it over L4E.

It's the only gun left in my wish list but I won't pay over $750 for one.

I saw on Lotus' Facebook page that they had one (post was at 4:22 PM). I called them at 5:30 and they said that it sold in 30 seconds !!

Did you ask what they sold it for?

All he would say is that they sold it for less than the $880 retail.

They probably could have put $1000 on it and still sold it in an hour

No doubt. Going between $1,500 - $2,000 on Gunbroker. That's nuts !!!

Nice. I will definitely have to pick one up.

Sounds like a fun gun but the price is such a turn off.

Sporters in etown had one for $800 and knob creek had one. I could see no use for one

When did u see one at Sporters?

Sporter Express sold one for 1000$ a few days ago.

Heard Lotus and Orion each had one for $1,200. I know the one at Lotus sold. That is sticking it your customers IMHO !!

Better than the $2,400 they were selling for.

Still $400 more than I'm willing to pay.

Same here, that's why I said screw waiting for KSGs to come down and bought a Saiga 12ga and going to be ordering the bullpup kit for it. Works out to around $900 for the gun & kit, but it'll be a semi vs pump. Still want the KSG though.

My bad, that was Oakwood NOT Lotus!!!!

This Oldtimers is killing me.

I saw one at Oakwood a couple weeks ago. They said it was already sold for $1200 and they wouldn't let me handle it since it was already paid for. I would love to shoulder one to see how they feel.
