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."

Muliticam color is printed Mil Spec Elastic.

Esstac Shotgun Card
I was very pleased with this system. The shells don't wiggle loose and the quick rip cord is a nice touch.

Fast, High Quality
I purchased this particular card because it was the only one I found with the loop. I agree with all of the other reviews and what they said doesn't bear repeating. The only reason I'm not able to give it 5 stars is because I'm waiting to see if and when the elastic will loosen. If it doesn't I will be mighty impressed and would offer it 5 stars easily.

Great on my M1S90
These make a great sidesaddle shell carrier system for my Benelli with the use of the velcro side plate from 3-gun Gear. Really nice to be able to just tear the empty off and throw a full one on the side of the gun. Will definately order more of these!

If you own a shotgun...buy this!
I purchased several of these cards in different flavors for my Mossberg 590A1. They fit perfectly on the side of the reciever. Will work just as well on other shotgun brands. Not only is this great for adding extra capacity to your shotgun, but has the added benefit of being easy to remove unlike the reciever mounted side saddles. for the price of a mounted side saddle you can get a couple of these and have more shells available and none of fitment and removal headaches of a hard mounted side saddle. as other reviewers have said, stick some extra cards in a mag pouch, cargo pocket, chest rig, on the family pet, around the house, in the car... etc and your good to go. these are very versatile and I highly recommend them! a must have addition to any shotgun.

Awesome product!!!!
Purchased this shotgun card to mount to the side of my Duty Remington 870 shotgun w/ the help of some Industrial strength velcro! This is a much cheaper alternative to buying a side saddle and is much lighter. The construction was everything I could have asked for, top notch!! I will recommend to all my fellow officers.

Esstac shot card works!
I have gone through many different mounting solutions for my shot gun in the 3-gun competitions I participate in. Most are over engineered and I really have grown to love the esstac shotgun card for it's versatility, rigidity, and cost. I can make several cards with different loads and rip them off and slap on a new on when needed. Great design and idea!

Cant beat it!
These things are awesome! I carry one on the shotgun and 4 more on the chest rig. There is no better or quicker way to have that many extra shells at hand ready to go! Everyone that see's it wants it and of course now that i want more they are out of stock!

Gets the job done
They are a tight fit for the double mag pouch on my US Peacekeeper bag and experimenting shows that pulling one out will pull the other out also. With the velcro attachments however, they are attachable to the bag exterior and can be stuck onto the strap running across the chest (with an added velcro patch) to facilitate reloading. Very nice alternative to a bandoleer for those of us that don't anticipate needing 50 rds of buckshot to defend the household.

Clever little product.
I've been impressed at not only how well these things are made, but just how versatile. The velcro backing works great on my tac vest. Just use smaller patches and I can slap these across my chest for reloads. The velcro backing h olds very well during deployment and the elastic holders for the shotgun rounds hold them in place very well until I want to use them. Overall the stitching is very strong and the pull tabs are strong.
