Kel-tec have no interest whatsoever in the UK market.
I found that out a few years back when I asked them if they could make a simple bolt catch to enable their SUB2000 to be manually operated instead of semi-auto.

I met a few of them at the Pro-Am in 2014 and they were of the opinion that the UK market was too small for them to be bothered when they struggle to keep pace with the demand in the USA.

Some in the US go as far as to say Kel tec at times is almost more of a think tank for gun designs with not much of desire to even try and expand......

The easier option would be to have them fit this at the factory, as a permanently attached item.
I sent them a message yesterday on their official Facebook page, I explained about the min OAL and would they consider perm fixing a muzzle brake at the factory.
I was very surprised to get a reply this afternoon Quote - "Good news... I spoke to the KSG-25 engineer yesterday and he has already been coming up with a 40" OAL plan."

IF, and its a big if, they do make a UK legal KSG-25, Who would be a good distributor that would be willing to bring them over here?

I'd be more than happy if they could weld a 2" muzzle brake to this -

My thoughts were the same too. A lot of people complain about the prices of KelTec in the USA, which is because the demand is so high but the production numbers are so low AFAIK.
