The civilian version of the KS-23 is the ТОZ-123 Selezen'-4 ("Drake-4") (ТОЗ-123 «Селезень-4»). It is manufactured by Tulsky Oruzheiny Zavod and features a smoothbore design, making it more similar to a traditional shotgun, and is chambered in standard 4 gauge.

[1] It was initially available in 20 gauge only (12 and 16 gauge guns were not sold until late 1914).
The Model 17 was a trim, 20-gauge shotgun that served as the design basis for three highly successful shotguns: the Remington Model 31, the Ithaca 37 and the Browning BPS. Additionally, features of the Model 17 were also incorporated in the later Mossberg 500 and Remington 870 .
