The TacStar 1081168 SideSaddle transforms any Remington 870, 1100, or 1187 into a rapid-reload platform by mounting four additional 12-gauge shells directly to the receiver. This side-mounted shell carrier eliminates fumbling for ammunition during critical moments while maintaining the shotgun's balance and handling characteristics.
What Makes This Different
Unlike elastic shell holders that stretch and fail over time, the SideSaddle uses individual polymer shell loops that maintain consistent tension and secure retention. The aluminum mounting plate distributes stress across the receiver's entire side surface rather than concentrating pressure on mounting screws alone. Each shell sits at the optimal angle for thumb-over loading technique, reducing reload time by up to 40% compared to belt-carried ammunition.Key Features
