TacStar 1081029 SideSaddle 6-Round Shell Holder Mossberg 500/590

The TacStar 1081029 SideSaddle transforms shotgun reload speed by mounting six spare shells directly to the receiver rail. This aluminum shell carrier eliminates fumbling through pockets or pouches during critical moments.

What Makes This Different

Unlike fabric shell holders that flex and slow access, this rigid aluminum construction maintains consistent shell positioning shot after shot. The SideSaddle mounts directly to Picatinny rails without requiring permanent modifications to the shotgun. Individual shell retention springs secure each round while allowing rapid single-handed extraction under stress.

Key Features

• Holds six 12-gauge shells in individual spring-loaded chambers
• Aircraft-grade aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing
• Quick-detach Picatinny rail mounting system
• Ambidextrous shell access for right and left-handed shooters
• Low-profile design clears optics and iron sights
• Compatible with all 2¾" and 3" 12-gauge ammunition
• Matte black finish reduces glare and reflection

Field performance centers on instant ammunition access when seconds matter. The spring tension holds shells securely during vehicle transport and dynamic movement while releasing smoothly under deliberate pressure. Law enforcement and competitive shooters rely on this design for consistent performance across temperature extremes and high round counts. The aluminum construction resists impact damage that destroys polymer alternatives.
