Well, I have never heard of such a thing. Now I want one.

Can civilians buy one?

Great versatility, w/2 magazine tubes you can fill one w/7 slugs and the other w/7 buck and switch back and forth as needed. Bad news, I just ordered one and was told there were customers ahead of me and their wait looked like it might be close to a year. I've heard that Kel-Tec does this a lot, introduces some brand-new wiz-bang new technology firearm, then fiddles around for several years getting production on-line.

If you don't mind my asking what were you quoted for price? There is an automatic that was just introduced (not Kel-Tec) w/a four tube rotating magazine (manual) for SRP over $2300. That seems kinda high given that the tubes only hold 4 rounds and you index them by hand.

Regards,
GtG

I Want One! Badly. I thought I might not want to shoot it, but it actually weighs about 15% more than my current defensive shotgun, so felt recoil should be less. Over twice as many rounds, and will fire the short (1 3/4") shells, giving you more rounds yet. KelTec site says it will hold 6 3" rounds in each tube, meaning you could put in 10 1 3/4" rounds in each tube, for a total of 21(although the manual says to make the short rounds function feed reliably) but 14 + 1 of 2 3/4" would be plenty.. Man would that make Fienstien and Schummer swoon. :)
