Nicholas Chen had an opportunity to try shooting the UTAS UTS-15 shotgun, a competitor to the Kel-Tec KSG. The gun has a strange magazine design where the follower extends past the feeding port. The video is a little disjointed, but you will get the idea …

Hate to be a hater, but get familiar with a firearm before "reviewing" it (or at least RTFM). BTW, turning and pointing any firearm up range (i.e. at the parking lot) would get you immediately kicked off of our range, and a temporary suspension of your membership.
I spent 23 years as an Airborne Infantry soldier, I say this not for any praises or sympathy but as a person who has shot many different weapons in combat and at the range, I am now a 100% disabled American veteran, I spend a lot of time shooting on my range with many of my different toys, I purchased the UTS-15, Gen 2, and later on ordered the laser and flashlight and installed it myself, I have shot approx. 200 rds through it from birdshot to slugs to tracer, my Sons, Daughters, grand-children and nephews (Age 10 and13), have also shot it, it performed flawlessly, I must admit I have never shot or held the KSG, so I cant speak for it. I had only had one problem with it, my 10 year old nephew is short and has short arms, we only had 3 jams when he shot it because he was short stroking it, once we identified the problem and he stroked it like a man, he had no problems, I like the weapon and would trust it in any situation, the only thing I don't like about it is, is the location of the release, but unless you have the funds to have a custom rig built for you, it's like any other firearm you have to get used to it and practice. I don't put much sand in the videos of someone else's shooting a weapon, I feel it's best if you can shoot it yourself and make your own decisions, I am not putting down any of the videos, or any of the shooters. Thanks, God Bless, God Bless America.
