Esstac Shotgun Card
There is hook velcro sewn on the back of the shotgun cards. Made for 12gauge shotgun shells only. The "Add Sticky Back Loop Velcro for $1.50" option is a strip of industrial strength loop velcro with industrial strength adhesive. Choose this option if you would like to attach the shotgun card to your shotguns receiver. Please let the velcro adhere for 24 hours to let the adhesive take a set.

Esstac Shotgun card - Simple and fast. My jedi master showed me the true benefit of this simple shotgun reload. Slap some loop on your shotgun's left side. Load a few shotgun cards, and place one on the gun. You can fit the spares (back to back if it's a bigger pouch) in a single mag pouch. As you reload the shotgun, tear off the empty shotgun card, pull out a new one and slap it on. You're ready to slay even more zombies. Super easy, cheap when compared to other side saddles, and very, very fast. View More SKD Staff Picks
7 rounds of 12 gauge ammunition can be carried on the Esstac Shotgun Card, which is backed with hook. Put two of these back to back, and you have a 14-round bundle that fills up a double M4 magazine pouch. Line the side of your receiver with loop, and you have an ammo "side-saddle" system that you can replace in an instant- perfect for Law Enforcement use, whether it is for breaching or less-lethal rounds. The versatility of these Shotgun Cards will prove themselves many times over the more you use them!
Note from Stu @ Esstac about the elastic loop longevity:
"Shotty cards, treat them like a magazine. They will wear more quickly with use rather then just sitting loaded, they will lose some tension over time but that is normal for elastic, I have a couple ammo cans full of loaded shotgun cards and they are still GTG several years later."

Very well constructed!
The shotgun card is very rigid even without shells in it and also holds shells securely. I am going to attach loop velcro to the outside of the receiver of my shotgun and use as a side saddle.

Esstac shot card
Shot card is built good. Excellent stitching & great retention with holding the shotgun rounds under recoil.

Great Shot Shell Holder
The shot shell cards are top quality and work great on my shotguns. They allow an easy reload or just swapping ammo between guns. As an added benefit I've found that they can be attached to my gun safe's carpeted interior door allowing me or the wife to grab extra ammo when things go bump in the night. Also if I'm wearing a tactical belt the card also securely attaches to the extra velcro loop. These shot shell cards are truly handy.

Just what I needed.
Excellent system. Holds the shells properly. I was not sure where to get the velcro for the receiver but found it easily on amazon. Very satisfied.

Esstac shotgun card
Excellent customer service-fast and friendly. Products are top quality at a great price. Looked at several options for shell holders on mossberg 590a1 shotgun and the esstac shotgun cards are the perfect solution-no more elongated receiver holes from conventional sidesaddle shell holders. Would highly recommend this product .

Satisfied Customer
Best bang for the buck. Other good brands, but these hold 7 shells. Better system than the "bolt on" side saddles.

Excellent basic gear
Well executed shotgun card. Get several. Loop base for mounting on the receiver you need to get elsewhere, like 3gungear.

Outstanding
I was in the market for a side saddle, stumbled across the Esstac Shotgun Card and pulled the trigger, bought two and they are WELL WORTH the money. Infact another order will be made shortly. If you're on the lookout for the best saddle, look no further, buy some industrial strength velcro and you're set. So strong I can even lift my shotgun by the card. Stay sharp, stay safe!

Well constructed with good retention
I bought these cards for my Benelli Nova 12ga shotgun, to be mounted on the factory buttstock with velcro, as I am a lefty. I am impressed with how snugly the shells are retained by the elastic. I have little concern that shells will be falling out when I take a shotgun tactical course in the coming months. Also, the fact that they hold 7 shells vs. the usual 6 is a plus!
