Esstac 4rnd Shotgun Card 12Gauge FAQs
What types of shotguns does the Esstac 4rnd Shotgun Card fit?
The Esstac 4rnd Shotgun Card is designed for 12-gauge shotgun shells. It can be attached to most shotgun receivers using the Sticky Back Loop Velcro option.
How do I install the Sticky Back Loop Velcro on the Esstac 4rnd Shotgun Card 12Gauge?
Clean the receiver with acetone or alcohol to remove any oils or debris. Ensure the surface is extremely dry before attaching the adhesive velcro. Press the velcro firmly into place and allow it to set for 24 hours before use.
Is it normal for the Esstac 4rnd Shotgun Card 12 Gauge to curve when loaded?
Yes, the elastic may cause the loaded card to take on a "C" shape. To correct this, bend it in the opposite direction manually and secure it with a rubber band or tape for an hour. Repeat if needed for longer durations.
How durable are the Esstac 4-Round Shotgun Cards?
The shotgun cards are considered disposable items. Over time, the elastic will wear out with repeated use, similar to magazine springs. It's a good idea to have spares on hand for replacement.
Will the adhesive velcro damage my shotgun's finish?
While the velcro shouldn't affect firearm finishes of good quality, we cannot guarantee this. If your shotgun’s appearance is a major concern, consider not installing the velcro or not using the shotgun cards altogether.
Can the Esstac 12 Gauge 4rnd Shotgun Card fit into standard magazine pouches?
Yes, the shotgun card fits in Esstac’s 5.56 and 7.62 pouches and most other 5.56 pouch offerings on the market.
What should I do if the adhesive starts lifting?
Oils and cleaners can soften the adhesive. If you notice the edges lifting, it’s recommended to replace the velcro with a new piece to maintain a secure attachment.
