Blackhawk 74SH00BK Buttstock Shell Holder - 9 Round Black Nylon

The Blackhawk 74SH00BK Buttstock Shell Holder transforms any rifle stock into an instant ammunition platform, providing immediate access to nine shotgun shells or rifle cartridges during critical moments. This low-profile design eliminates fumbling through pockets or pouches when seconds count.

What Makes This Different

Unlike bulky side-saddle shell carriers that add weight and bulk to the receiver, this buttstock-mounted system keeps ammunition weight centered on the rifle for better balance. The elastic retention system secures shells without rattling or noise, while the quick-release design allows instant shell extraction under stress. Independent shell loops prevent cascading ammunition loss if one shell is damaged or dislodged.

Key Features

• Nine individual elastic loops accommodate 12-gauge shells or rifle cartridges up to .30-06 length
• Durable 1000-denier nylon construction resists tears, moisture, and UV degradation
• Hook and loop attachment system fits most synthetic and wooden rifle stocks
• Low-profile design adds only 0.5 inches to stock thickness
• Ambidextrous shell access for both right and left-handed shooters
• Silent operation with no metal-on-metal contact or rattling
• Weighs only 3.2 ounces when empty

Field performance demonstrates reliable shell retention through heavy recoil and adverse conditions. The elastic loops maintain proper tension after thousands of insertion cycles, while the nylon material sheds moisture and debris easily. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent shell positioning for rapid reloads, while hunters value the silent operation that won't spook game. Law enforcement and military users rely on the secure retention during vehicle operations and dynamic entries.
