Kel-Tec has sent a letter to dealers informing them that because they have learnt that the Kel-Tec KSG will be specifically named as a banned gun in Feinstein’s proposed bill they have to raise prices to try and recoup R&D costs in the event that the gun is banned.

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

I have a better idea...

Why don't they work with their State's reps and make sure a ban is never voted in?

Screw Kel-Tec.

FNH is also announcing a price increase on their guns they are releasing next month. Not because of the panic, but because of rising costs in general.

And if they aren't banned will they return the $300?
