Will these shotgun shell holders fit my firearm?

Most 12 gauge shell holders are universal, while side saddles are model-specific. Check each product's compatibility notes for your shotgun make and model.

What’s the difference between side saddles and Velcro shell cards?

Side saddles are rigid, bolt-on carriers that stay mounted on your shotgun. Velcro cards are lighter, modular, and easily swapped on chest rigs or stocks.

Do I need tools to install these shell holders?

Velcro and stock-mounted holders require no tools. Side saddles typically come with hardware for installation on specific shotgun models.
