The improved shotgun shell carrier is a rectangular plastic housing one end
closed by a sliding door. A zigzag-type compression spring is positioned
within the housing between the sliding door and a magazine follower. The
open end of the housing is provided with opposing feeding lips formed from
spring steel and shaped to funnel the shells one at a time to a release
point adjacent the tip of the feeding lips. The feeding lips are formed
with a centrally located finger slot having a length greater than the
width of a shotgun shell. Blocking elements are pivotally positioned at
the open end of the housing to prevent extra shells from falling out when
the feeding lips are open. The housing is adapted for receiving attaching
elements to enable attaching the carrier to high-speed modular gear in a
desired position for quick and efficient reloading of a shotgun.
