Published on September 5, 2020
Duration: 42:38

The KelTec KSG 25 is a high-capacity bullpup shotgun designed for static defense scenarios like 'Fortress Defense' rather than mobile combat. While its 25-round capacity is impressive, its 9 lbs 2 oz empty weight and challenging reloading process make it less practical for general use. Reliability improved after a factory upgrade, but it prefers high-base shells. The reviewer recommends the original KSG for most users.
