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."
Black, Coyote Brown, and RangerGreen is Mil Spec Elastic.
Muliticam color is printed Mil Spec Elastic.

Esstac Shotgun Card
I bought two of these to try on my Remington 870. Love them and will be buying more. The shells remained after 70 rounds including 15 slugs and not one fail. I attached it to the side of the gun using 3M velcro tape. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a faster way to reload and have shells at the ready.

Good shipper and product...
Great experience with SKD Tac. Will order from again! Product was as described for a great price. I've had them (3 cards) for only a week, but the are loaded up and ready for a dessert trip. Shells go in a little tight, but from what i read, they will loosen up over time. I had some heavy duty Velcro from Home Depot, cut to fit and adhered to my Mossberg 500. Shotgun is kept "cruiser safe" for HD, and have a card or two stashed at opposing ends of the house for "what if's". Nice feature having the Velcro if you want to do an under desk mount for back up ammo at the ready. Thanks

Excellent product and service
I am impressed with the quality of this product. The elastic is durable and doesn't seem like it will stretch out over time, it holds the shells securely, but not so tight as to impair rapid removal for reloading. My only complaint is that the paracord loop is a different color (black card, tan paracord). This is a minor complaint though and does not detract from the utility of the product.

works great, easy to swap out
Holds the shells up or down or both, does not slip under rapid fire. Easy enough to swap out vs refilling.

Looks good
I ordered the shotgun card to replace some gear that I was "borrowed". As usual the order was hassle free and arrived very quickly. I haven't yet used the item but it seems like a very high quality piece of gear. I really like the para-cord loop on one end as I am sure it will help with pulling the card off of a Velcro backer. It would be nice if the company also built the loop side with glue on the back for various weapons systems, 870, 590, etc. But until they do, Ill keep making my own.

BUY AS MANY AS YOU CAN AFFORD
I bought four for both of my shotguns and bought some industrial velcro from my local hardware store so I could use them for side saddles. I saw a few bad reviews about them not holding the shells well but my fears were alleviated when I tested them. They hold the shells extremely well and I've never had one fall out. The color is very nice and they fit inside my ar mag pouches well and the pull tab is very strong so I feel like I can really yank on it to pull it off. I will like buy more in the future because they are the best side saddle I have tried by a long shot.
