As a lefty, and often interested in unique technology, I've been interested in that gun for a while. But the more I read about Kel-Tec and the stories of their gun owners, the more I am turned off.
They market these interesting designs (e.g. the .308 of the OP, their new shotgun) and then take a year to begin selling them. Then they seem to build far too few for the market, availability is unpredictable, and they get auctioned off for more than their retail price.
Then the early customers (if not all) become beta testers and help debug their early units.
It's like buying Ferrari's. If you've bought a few, you get pushed to the top of the list for a new model, and pay quite a bit more for the honor. Most others have to wait in line for a year or more, IF your local dealer will accept your money. But at least you know this going in to the deal. And unlike Kel-Tec, Ferrari's now actually work.
But I'm sure they are profitable and it seems like an enjoyable hobby for them.
(sorry, I'm just a bit miffed at these KT folks).
