If you're running low on tube capacity or just want faster reloads in the field, the TacStar SideSaddle puts four extra 12-gauge shells exactly where you need them. The carrier mounts directly to the side of your receiver, keeping your ammunition at arm's reach instead of buried in your pocket. Unlike mag extensions that require more gunwork, this setup takes minutes to install with nothing more than the included mounting hardware.
The design is straightforward: a corrosion-resistant polymer shell holder bonds to a rugged aluminum mounting plate. That aluminum plate bolts directly to your shotgun's receiver, and the shell loops are angled for natural access when you need to feed. Most owners find the shells stay secure without rattle or loosening over time, even after heavy use. The carrier is purpose-built for long forends, so it clears even shotguns with extended handguards without binding.
Mounting this carrier takes no special tools or gunsmith work. All hardware comes in the box, and you've got a choice of pin configurations depending on your stock type. Installation typically runs about the time it takes to have coffee. The 4-shot version works smoothly across all Remington 870, 1100, and 1187 pump guns without modification in most cases. Some field-grade forends with extended coverage may need a trim for full cycling, but that's uncommon with factory shotguns and aftermarket tactical forends won't cause issues.
The polymer shell holders resist weathering and corrosion, and the aluminum backing plate is tough enough for serious use. The overall weight adds virtually nothing to your gun, and the compact footprint means you're not adding bulk. This accessory works just as well mounted on a duck blind gun or a home defense shotgun as it does on a hunting gun.
The 4-shot version is specifically designed to provide clearance for long forends, including factory extended handguards and aftermarket tactical forends. If your shotgun has a field-grade forend that extends fully onto the receiver sides, it may need trimming, but most modern shotguns won't have this issue.
Installation is straightforward and takes about 15-20 minutes. The carrier mounts directly to your receiver with the included hardware, and no tools beyond a wrench are needed. TacStar includes multiple pin options to fit different stock designs, so you can choose the right fit for your gun.
No. The polymer holders grip shells securely, and the aluminum mounting plate stays put once bolted down. Most owners report the carrier remains stable and silent during hunting and field use without loosening over time.
Yes. The carrier works well as a standalone shell holder for a duck blind, boat, or hunting cabin since it keeps shells organized and easily accessible without needing the shotgun mounted.
