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."

Esstac Shotgun Card 7 round holder
I can definitely see why this is a Staff Pick. Perfect shell holder for any training, defensive or Direct Action situation. I will be purchasing more. When you need them close...look no farther.

excelent product
great product. the textured grip material inside the shell loops is a wonderful addition. no fear the shells will slip out now even if there up or down.

Great product
Looks to be good quality. Like others have said the multicam elastic is a cheaper quality, still good. Very satisfied.

Very innovative
If you have ever considered using a shotgun as a primary or even semi primary weapon....DONT! Unless you have a couple of these cards on hand. I have used sidesaddle carriers for years, some good some bad but all over priced and once they're empty, they're empty. Previous issue of tightness of the elastic has definitely been fixed. Trust me. They're tight. I put 60 rds through a designated set, measured their position in the loops and after the shots, they hadn't moved a single MILIMETER! Basically with these you have a magazine on your scattergun, easily removed, easily replaced. I wrap the slug cards loop in pink paracord for easy identification, and maybe also to be a bit ironic. Either way, fantastic product from a great company. Skd, excellent work on the shipping. If you have a shotgun, buy em!

Shotgun Card
I have to say, this is the first part of the system! I haven't yet purchased the Velcro to attach the card to the weapon. That being said, the card is well built and holds the rounds very solidly. After I get it set up, I will buying more of these cards...

Great product. Plan to mount the soft side of the hook and loop on my receiver and on my pack.

Cheap Price/ Yet Quality Product
I was surprised when I got my order Only 3 days after I placed it. The Esstac Shotgun Cards are very well made. When I first got the cards the elastic was extremely tight, so tight in fact that you can use it for 20 gauge. 12 gauge shells are almost impossible to load so if you plan on having to reload from your sidesaddle then you should load and unload them several times before you try and use them under stress.

Great Product
I decided to go with the detachable shotgun card on my Mossberg 590 and I couldn't be happier. The quality of the product is great. I'm expecting these to last awhile.
