BFG Releases the ShotShell Pouch

Wednesday, June 25th, 2025

POOLER, GA. – Blue Force Gear, Inc. (“BFG”), the world leader in load carriage equipment innovation, launches the ShotShell Pouch. The patent pending ShotShell Pouch was designed to securely hold 7 shotgun shells in either vertical or horizontal orientation while preventing shell exposure and retention issues during dynamic operations.

The ShotShell Pouch is truly a revolutionary design, offering multiple levels of flexibility and customization. The reversible and removable lids allow the user to orient the flaps in any direction or remove them completely, depending on mission requirements or mounting preferences. As with any BFG flapped pouch, it features the BLIP (Ball Loaded Index Point) pull tab that allows for positive indexing even with gloved, cold, or wet hands.

It can be mounted to any MOLLE platform vertically and horizontally using BFG’s patent pending two-way Helium Whisper attachment system. The patented Helium Whisper attachment system is the lightest and strongest MOLLE style attachment system available and is the choice of the most elite professionals.

Constructed from BFG’s proprietary ULTRAcomp high-performance coated fabric laminate, the pouch offers superior durability while weighing a mere 3.3 oz. The inside of the pouch has heavy duty elastic loops that securely hold 7 individual shells in either direction for a downward or upward pull.

The ShotShell Pouch addresses a significant gap in the market, delivering a purpose-built solution ideal for those conducting breaching operations or other shotgun tactics. Its innovative design provides true dual-orientation capability in a lightweight, low-profile, and highly customizable package. The ShotShell Pouch is another example of innovation and forward thinking by Blue Force Gear. Those seeking a lightweight, low-profile, extremely durable shotgun shell carrier with dual-orientation mounting capability should look no further than the BFG ShotShell Pouch.
