One of the drawbacks of shotguns is their relatively low on-board ammunition capacity, particularly when compared to the capabilities of modern sporting rifles. The Airdus Quick Disconnect Shotgun Shell Carrier enables shotgunners to have extra rounds at the ready when needed. Designed for the Remington Model 870 pump-action shotgun, this style of the Airdus Quick Disconnect Shotgun Shell Carrier can also be mounted on the company's popular 11-87 and 1100 shotguns. The carrier is machined from a single piece of 6061-T6 aluminum and is installed with a steel latch and stainless-steel torsion spring that keep the carrier secured on the side of the shotgun's receiver. Each Quick Disconnect Shotgun Shell Carrier is treated with a Type 3 hardcoat-anodized finish and also includes a skeletonized backing plate that saves weight while keeping the unit strong. Weight: 7.8 oz (Receiver Adapter 2.9 oz, Carrier 4.9 oz)
