I’ve been running my VM Tactical without any modifications. After this weekends match I’m ready to do some minor upgrades. The first is a side saddle shell holder or a match saver type setup. What’s everyone using? Pros and cons of each setup.

I prefer chest rigs to having caddies on my belt, Invictus practical makes the best ones.

as far as a match saver go with the original, not the RCI version.

Match saver on my M2. Invictus Practical caddies

I don't carry any ammo on my shotgun but I have seen shooters with the new Briley M-lok shotgun forend and belt type shell caddies mounted to the fore-end.

Thanks all. I’m running California Competition Works shell caddies on my belt. I just wanted s9mething on the gun for that time I just need one or two rounds when I’ve dorked up a stage.

You can mount 2 match savers to your shotgun.
One on the right side up by the ejection port, one low on the left to load into the loading gate.

Thanks for the tip. I hadn’t even considered one by the loading gate.

I have 2 on my M2.

The one by the load gate mainly gets used to put one extra shell in when I do a quick load 4 with the gun flipped on its back.

Don't do a side saddle.  Just going to get in the way as you learn duals/quads.  You can make a matchsaver out of 3/4" Pex tubing for cheap instead of paying $25 for the brand name as that is what they do.
