Shit sorry bro I just re-read this. Doing to many things at once.

It’s been a while but I think the shell carrier came from Mesa Tactical. I went with 6 round because 8 slots would tear into my hand when racking. It has an internal tube thats just a strip of tubing you can buy at an auto parts or hardware store. When it wears out it can be replaced instead of replacing the whole saddle

But the best upgrade I made was switching the plastic follower to a titanium one. There’s no drag and the shells fly into the mag tube.

No worries! I'll have to look up Mesa tactical. Sounds pretty rad. I've looked at a few upgrades for my 590 (my primary defensive weapon in my home). I'm a little surprised the follower made that much of a difference!

Yeah because over time the factory plastic ones get distorted. Plus when I added the 2 round extension I kept the short spring. It really helps if you are practicing tactical or speed loading

Gotcha. The stamped steel follower in my 590 is certainly scratchy.
