Viper Tactical VX Shotgun Cartridge Holder

The VX Shotgun Cartridge Holder is a compact 15x10 cm shell carrier designed to keep shotgun cartridges within reach during hunting or operational use. The velcro attachment lets you mount it on compatible surfaces — velcro-faced MOLLE panels, duty belts, vests — and move it from one platform to another in seconds without tools.

The entire structure is elastic: shells are inserted and drawn with a single motion, no snaps to open, no releases to press. This makes the carrier well suited to anyone who needs to reload a pump-action quickly. The trade-off that comes with this design choice is equally worth considering: elastic does not retain cartridges with the same positive lock as a hard-retention system. On rough terrain or in the prone position, rounds can work loose if the carrier is not oriented correctly. Those who need absolute retention should look at a rigid-closure solution; those who prioritise speed of access will find it here.

The low weight — 20 g — has no measurable effect on kit balance even when several units are mounted side by side on the same panel. The elastic also accommodates glow sticks, markers or other cylindrical objects of a similar diameter to a standard shotgun shell.

Key points

• The velcro attachment lets you reposition it on any compatible surface in seconds, adapting your kit to the situation without tools.
• Elastic retention allows single-handed extraction and equally quick reinsertion — a decisive advantage when reloading under pressure.
• At just 20 g, multiple units can be mounted without adding meaningful weight to the overall setup.
• The 15x10 cm footprint accommodates the most common shells for pump-action and semi-automatic hunting shotguns, as well as cylindrical objects of comparable diameter.
• The straightforward construction — no buckles, no zips — eliminates parts prone to mechanical wear or breakage.
