what's the recoil like with the rifle?  .308 in that short of a package is neat!  and a beautiful bear!

Nice chocolate... and love the RFB.  Is that considered a SBR (short barrelled rifle) or pistol? 
I have at least three other "Fun" purchases in mind, now four... My wife would probably use it on me if I bought one.

recoil is light for a .30 cal.  the plane of the barrel is even with but of the gun so its a push-back, the flash hider vents all the gas up so muzzle climb  minimal, very quick fallow up shots- just make sure you have good hearing protection.

No Kel Tec designed it to pass Fed. regulations and regulations in most states (legal in Cali w/ some modifications)  18 1/2" barrel and 28" over all length.

I'm going to get it camoed at NWhydro print and replace the issued 20 rd. mag with a 10 rd. try and make it look less tactical - get less "why are you hunting with a machine gun?"  questions. 
Honesty is the best policy,  but insanity is a better defense.
