George Kelgren has been designing guns for over 30 years and worked for 4-5 different manufacturers before founding his own company. His best-known design to date is probably the Tec 9. His designs tend to be as simple as possible, so this is quite a departure for him.

I suspect he built up his business by selling inexpensive guns to accrue the capital to allow him to do what he really wanted.

Remember, the guy who designed the VW Beetle started building sports cars one day...
