The KelTec RFB18 (brand part no. RFB18BLK) is a .308 Winchester bullpup rifle built around an 18-inch barrel and a forward-ejecting design that makes it the first truly ambidextrous 7.62 NATO bullpup ever developed. KelTec’s patented dual-extractor system pulls each fired case forward through an ejection chute above the barrel, letting shooters run the rifle from either shoulder without brass in the face. The tilting-block bullpup configuration keeps the RFB18 up to 14 inches shorter overall than competing rifles with the same barrel length, favoring shooters who want full-length ballistics in a compact, truly ambidextrous package.
