As the name suggests, RFB is a bullpup configured semi-automatic rifle featuring the forward shell ejection design similar to the Belgian F2000 and the Israeli Tavor, this design combined with the fire switch accessible from both sides, making RFB a fully ambidextrous firearm.

Designed to accept a 20-round aluminum magazine, but it is also compatible with the metric FAL magazine. Chambers the 7.62x51mm NATO/.308 Winchester cartridge, RFB is capable of reaching an effective range of 500 metres while propelling the rounds at a muzzle velocity of 880m/s. Note Kel-Tec did not provide a factory default iron sight for the RFB, but users can mount any commercial optics they wish on the top positioned Picatinny rail.
