VISM by NcStar Tactical Shotgun Scabbard

I can't speak highly enough of this product. After extensively reading reviews and shopping for a shotgun scabbard, I decided not to spend a ton of money and just get this value-priced Chinese one for starters and I could always upgrade later. After receiving the product, I don't think I'll ever need to upgrade!. The only question I have about it now is which color to buy next!Some reviews mentioned thin single stitching on the MOLLE straps that didn't hold up. This must have been a design flaw in earlier versions because mine came with well-stitched MOLLE straps and firm stitching on all seams. The nylon material is durable and of good quality. Nothing about it seems cheap or flimsy. Even the metal components seem to be steel as they are magnetic (you can see the metallic grey, oval magnet I stuck to one of the metal attachment clasps in two of my pictures).The carry strap is fully adjustable for length and has a sliding shoulder pad. The barrel end of the scabbard has an adjustable plastic clip so that it can be folded up and attached to shorten the overall length of the scabbard, or let out or unclipped to lengthen the scabbard by several inches to accommodate anything from as short as an 18" barrel to (probably) a 24" or 28". (In my photos you can see the sleeve mostly extended with the shotgun stock also extended and the shotgun pushed most of the way into the scabbard with the pistol grip all the way forward in the zipper slit, and in another photo you can see the sleeve tightened up to shorten the length of the scabbard and the folding stock folded to make the package as compact as possible)In my setup, I have a 12ga Mossberg 500 with an 18.5" barrel, plastic heat shield, Maverick 88 forend, and ATI top folding stock. The reason I wanted a scabbard and not a mere shotgun sling was so that I could attach the whole package to the side of a bag using carabiners or MOLLE. This scabbard absolutely does the trick! It's amazing how easy it is to carry the scabbard on my back with the folding stock collapsed to form a compact package. I highly recommend using this scabbard with a folding stock of some sort to attach your shotgun to your pack or other gear, or to just carry it on your back if that suites you.Soon I will be attaching a shell carrier to the MOLLE, but for now I have just stuck a few extra rounds in the MOLLE loops (this is not their intended purpose, but they are strongly enough stitched that a few of the looser loops can accommodate a handful of extra shells. The scabbard even comes with 4 button snap MOLLE strips. I use 3 of them to fashion a strap that holds down the folding stock so that it doesn't bounce around and stays close to the scabbard so it doesn't get caught on anything, yet the shotgun can still be pulled free from the scabbard without having to undo any of the straps. You can thank me later.The only possible issues to be aware of are that the scabbard is fairly tight (there is a little wiggle room but not much), so double barreled shotguns, shotguns with thick forends or bulky accessories (flashlights, lasers, bayonet lugs, vertical foregrips, etc.), shotguns with bulky muzzle devices, shotguns with bulky heat shields or sidesaddle shell holders, and shotguns with tall optics that do not easily detach may have trouble fitting into the scabbard.Overall, if you have a relatively clean, common profile shotgun with either a standard or folding stock, this scabbard should go a very long way in providing a comfortable, tactical, and versatile way to store, transport, and protect your gun. I highly recommend it!

I bought this scab for my 12 Ga. 18" barrel Shotgun. I wanted something to sit my weapon in but still have easy access to in case I need it. I looked at a few other options for shotgun carry cases and range bags for shotguns, but everything was either too big & bulky or lacked in quality. This bag is just what I was looking for and as soon as I touched it, in the packaging, I knew the quality was there, just by the way it felt. Nice thick material, similar to a duffel bag for you military guys.The scab fits snugly around the gun, which is exactly what I wanted. I do have a ammo sleeve on the stock which holds 5 shells, and it slides in just fine. The interior has a smooth fabric finish which allows the weapon to slide in and out quick and easy. I use the scab fully extended. My gun is approximately 39 inches long from tip of barrel to back of stock and it sits all the way down in there with half the stock showing , the trigger is fully covered.Lots of Mollie storage possibilities on the exterior. The bag it's equipped with tactical straps for multiple uses. Comes with a padded shoulder strap for easy carry. The gun stores downward for safety and quick retrieval.The only thing I can say needs improvement is that there are two grommets at the bottom of the bag. When fully extended as I use it, the grommets rub against the gun barrel. I believe the grommet is there to release air in the bag when loading it. Not sure. If they were closer to the edges and not centered, then no issue. I simply stuck a bandanna in the bottom of the bag to keep the barrel from rubbing , easy fix.Overall great scab , I'm greatly pleased.

I spent a good bit of time looking for a shotgun scabbard, and was looking particularly for a molle scabbard so I could mount it to the side of my G.O.O.D. kit. I Liked the looks of this scabbard, and based on the reviews it has gotten (reviews for all of the colors) I decided this one looks good for the price. I ordered it on Monday and got it Friday through the free Amazon shipping--awesome! It came in a typical Amazon box, but that is about the extent of the packaging. The scabbard was in a plastic bag, but did not have any tags or labels whatsoever. No labels sewn on or attached with those little plastic thingies.My first impression: NICE! The construction quality is very high. Nice materials, and unlike several others the shoulder strap was wide and has a very nice cushion. Most of the straps or webbing are doubled over and sewn very well. The digital camo colors are very nice, and lighter, good for desert colors. The pictures you see in the description show four replaceable/removable molle straps, that's all it comes with. This scabbard will easily mount to the side of a molle backpack or similar bag! Also, there is a strap at the top of the scabbard that clips over the pistol grip of my shotgun, holding the gun very securely, which would allow you to strap it on a bag or something upside down if you want and the gun won't go anywhere (I'm not advocating or suggesting that, just saying it is an option and your gun is held securely).Some may see these next point as nitpicky--that's what makes the world go 'round. I suffer from what I call the "Southpaw Syndrome(tm)." In other words, I'm left-handed. Unfortunately, this scabbard is designed for right-handed folks. While I believe left-handedness should be a protected class, it ain't (insert obligatory political comment here). How does this play into the scabbard? Funny you should ask: all of the attached "D" rings for the shoulder strap are on the side of the holster that would work for people in their wrong mind. The only thing I'm left with is to use the molle straps on the other side of the scabbard, or being in my wrong mind also. Also, if you look at the long edge of the scabbard the sewn-on molle straps are uneven. On one side of the scabbard they are about 1/2 inch higher than the other.Overall the build quality is great, and it is a great scabbard.
