The Kel-Tec KSG is a modern pump-action shotgun, the principle feature being twin side-by-side tube magazines under the barrel. Like the NeoStead 2000 Shotgun, it is not uncommon for people to mistake it for a double-barrel shotgun with one tube magazine.
The Kel-Tec KSG and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:

Kel-Tec KSG Gen 2 with EOTech 512 sight and Magpul AFG (angled foregrip) - 12 gauge

Note: in nearly all video games that feature the KSG, the magazine selector is never seen being operated in-game, which means that the two magazine tubes are incorrectly treated as one continuous tube.
