Kel-Tec RDB .223/5.56 20″ Barrel OD Green Grip 20rd

Description

The Kel-Tec RDB (Rifle Downward-ejecting Bullpup) is a compact modern sporting rifle that places the action behind the trigger group to reduce overall length without sacrificing barrel length. This RDB is chambered for .223 Rem / 5.56 NATO and is built around a downward ejection system that enables true ambidextrous use. The rifle features a 20″ pencil-profile barrel and an OD green synthetic grip/stock, with a Mil-Spec Picatinny rail for optics and accessories. Intended as a practical, compact platform, the RDB is suited for range use and general field applications where a shorter overall footprint is desired.
