SureShell Hook & Loop Carriers
Hook & Loop SureShell carriers combine our SureShell Polymer carrier yoke with 3M SJ3572 hook fastener material laminated to a 3/?32” Formex 94 substrate. This allows Hook & Loop SureShell carriers to be easily attached to and removed from surfaces, such as shotgun receivers and MOLLE vests, covered with mating loop material. The Hook & Loop SureShell carriers are sold with an adhesive-backed 3M SJ3571 loop fastener that can be glued directly to a shotgun receiver. For Three Gun competitors who do not want to permanently affix the loop fastener material to their shotguns, we also offer loop fastener bracket kits that are attached mechanically and can be easily removed at any time. Please note: these Hook & Loop Mount kits do not include the Hook & Loop SureShell carriers, which are sold separately. mesatactical.com
