KSG shotgun issues?

[VictimX]

So i picked up a KSG from a seller here months back but it's doing something i don't think is normal ...everything works but... Each time i fire a round the foregrip cocks itself back so you better hold on. If i fire one handed the foregrip will cock back and eject the shell by it self. I've seen videos and other KSG guns don't do this. Is something broken or off?

Lucky you. Don't complain, old Winchester pumps have that unlocking feature as well, and is highly appreciated by their owners.

What do you have attached to the foregrip - any vertical grips or lights?

Yep my Mossberg can do that too while shooting full power loads. Should be considered a feature not a problem!

Perfectly normal. Everytime your shotgun is cocked, the slide will lock (unless you depress the lock) Otherwise, if your shotgun uncocked (meaning you pulled the trigger), then yes the slide will move down with gravity.

So I can see that your all trolling because I now know it should not be doing this. I have 8 pump shotguns and this is the only one that will cock it self and eject a round by itself? I have a Hi-Tech's KSG Compatible "Billet" Striker Pump Grip Handle i bought online that feels nice till you shot and that thing feels like a brass knuckle busting your hand. I'm trying to contact KelTec for support. To try and explain better, The foregrip launches back with Force by itself similar to a the bolt on a semi action shotgun. Pump-action shotgun foregrips should not do that once the trigger is pulled the foregrips should not do that, it should stay in place so that the operator can manually cycle the next round. On this shotgun the foregrip does not stay in place once the trigger is pulled but instead is thrown back with the bolt as the round is fired.

my winchester sxp can do this.

it is actually a marketed feature. that it is the "fastest pump action" due to the recoil racking the pump back. i think they call it "inertia assisted action"

when taking it out to the trap range, i don't hold tightly on the pump and use that trick to empty the shotgun and fling that shell to my buddy next to me.

Not trolling dude. Well Broken in shotguns sometimes do this. The guy you bought it from might have actually shot the thing.

Does the fore grip slide back also?
If you hold the fore grip from coming back, will it still chamber the next round?

[Oldmandan]

The Remy & Mossberg have a lock built into the system to prevent that from happening. The KSG should as well.

I have read that some people “remove” the lock/switch to mount a forward grip and other accessories.

Does your KSG have a working slide lock still?

[SkyHawk]

Take the billet vertical grip off and see if the problem is still there.

I assume it only does this when you are not holding the foregrip or VFG? Because if it does, then you must also be pulling it back a bit before the shot, without realizing it.

The previous owner said he didn't use it much and that it wasn't doing what I'm describing. It's hard to test out what's wrong because snap caps don't mimic live rounds after firing. I need to go back to the range Saturday and test it out again.

[VictimX]

I will hit the range Saturday to take a video showing the issue for documentation reasons. I'll post a link after.

It has a vicious recoil which makes it unpleasant to shoot
