At Guns.com, we love guns, but we also love souping them up with user-friendly upgrades at an affordable price. With Fourth of July around the corner, it seemed like a good time for some fireworks. If you like explosions, a fast-shooting scattergun should fit the bill. Enter our KelTec KSG tactical package.

For our latest tac pack, we took the compact, high-capacity KelTec KSG 12-gauge shotgun and loaded it with extras like a Holosun HE403C-GR green dot optic, a Magpul vertical foregrip, sling, and Kydex cheek riser.

THE EXTRAS

For the optic, we chose a Holosun HE403C-GR that's technically a green dot, not red. It can run off of ambient light but also boasts 50,000 hours of battery life. (Photo: April Robinson/Guns.com)


The HE403C-GR is a solar and battery powered 20mm micro sight featuring Holosun’s Green Super LED that’s advertised as having a 50,000-hour battery life. So, once it’s on your gun, you don’t ever have to think about it again – at least not for a long, long time. The optic also has 10 daylight and two night-vision-compatible reticle intensity settings.

Added height from the Kydex cheek riser matches the elevation of the Holosun, providing the shooter a level line of sight through the center of the green dot. The vertical foregrip is a secure handle that’s easy to push and pull to operate the pump action. 

Whether you’re looking for a tactical home defense firearm or a fun new range companion, the KSG is a powerful, unique choice. And with our package, you’re getting everything you need to maximize this firearm’s potential, all for well under $1,000.
