Shotgun case/bag
A side saddle, Butt cuff, belt loaders or a belt bag such as a magazine dump pouch or sportsman’s caddy or something to hold additional ammunition in that is carried on your person or the firearm. Pleas ask before purchase as some side saddles require screws that can affect the function.
