Kel-Tec RDB – Advanced Bullpup Rifle for Tactical Precision
The Kel-Tec RDB (Rifle, Downward-ejecting Bullpup) is designed to push the limits of rifle performance while maintaining compactness and versatility. Chambered in 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington, this innovative bullpup rifle features a unique downward-ejection system, making it fully ambidextrous and perfect for a wide range of shooting positions.
