UTAS UTS 15 shotgun

I am very intrigued by this pump shotgun.

Anyone have any experience with them? Where near Indy could I see one? I just sold my AR 15 and have some money and this seems like an interesting gun. Most reviews are favorable and I'm a big fan of unique and unusual modern firearms.

There was one at Big Daddy's in Hagerstown but it sold already. They have a couple more ordered.

I like it better than the KSG.

Some of the intial testing on them by guys and gals at Arfcom 'sez they aren't worth it. They aren't heavy, but they are expensive (roughly 1200-1500 per from their observations).

Keltec is missing out on the boat, big time. I hate the KSG, but guys love 'em. They make only a few and then dealers/individuals mark them up HUGE compared to even MSRP. Yes, supply and demand, but dios mio. There were some going for 2k on Gunbroker a while ago. $2k and the thing barely runs (all the ones I have personally seen, jammomatics). Plus, they take forever to load and are ungainly to do so (ever notice why they don't show reloading on the demo videos...)

Looks like it will go the way of the Crossfire.

I wouldn't take a UTAS if they were giving them away for free.

While I admit that Kel-Tec is dropping the ball big time on their production of the KSG, I think it is much higher quality than the UTAS is currently based on what I have seen/heard so far.

Both are interesting shotguns, with different approaches taken. I just think the KSG is better executed and is ambidextrous (LH friendly), which is a big deal to me.

There is a KSG and a Kel-Tec rifle at Big Daddy's now if someone is looking for one.

I routinely use everything I own for sporting purposes. Can you imagine if I took that firearm onto the skeet field during a registered program, stood under the high house on station one and hollered "pull" ? I'll bet there would be a lot of people talking behind my back....

This looks like one of those cases of someone trying way too hard to make a futuristic looking gun.

RGriff-what do you not like about the UTS? I watched a comparison video on youtube and there were some plusses and minuses to both but they didn't seem to have a strong opinion. They also didn't seem to think either jammed very much...?

 

[RGriff69]

I like the UTAS.

I'd take the KSG hands down. I plan on picking one up if the prices ever come down.
