TacStar 1081130 SideSaddle 20 Gauge Shell Holder Remington 870/1100

The TacStar 1081130 SideSaddle transforms any Remington 870, 1100, or 1187 20-gauge shotgun into a rapid-reload platform. This receiver-mounted shell carrier holds four additional rounds at the ready, eliminating fumbling for ammunition during critical moments.

What Makes This Different

Unlike fabric shell carriers that sag or elastic holders that lose tension, the TacStar SideSaddle uses rigid polymer construction with an aluminum mounting plate. The shells sit securely in individual retention loops that maintain consistent grip pressure over thousands of cycles. Installation requires no gunsmithing—the system mounts directly to the receiver using existing trigger group pins.

Key Features

• Holds four 20-gauge shells in secure polymer retention loops
• Aluminum mounting plate ensures solid attachment to receiver
• Compatible with Remington 870, 1100, and 1187 20-gauge shotguns
• Low-profile design maintains natural gun handling and balance
• Ambidextrous shell access for left and right-handed shooters
• Matte black finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
• Tool-free installation using existing trigger group pins

Field testing demonstrates reliable shell retention through heavy recoil and adverse conditions. The individual retention loops prevent shells from rattling loose during transport while allowing smooth one-handed extraction under stress. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent shell positioning that enables muscle-memory reloads. Law enforcement and home defense users benefit from immediate access to additional ammunition without magazine extensions that alter gun balance.
