What is your preference for extra on board ammo carry?
6 on a sidesaddle. You never want ammo on a sling that is flopping around all over the place. The sidesaddle also helps keep the added weight between the hands better.
The community doesn't get excited about carrying extra ammo on any other type of firearms. I think the idea goes back to the patrol gun that sits in a car all day or the HD gun in a closet.
I don't think any of the on-gun options solve the problem better than the off-gun options. If I was really interested in carrying a lot of 12 ga ammo around I would probably look at modifying one of the shotgun magazines.12GA Shotgun ammo is heavy and very large. It presents kind of a unique challenge to make sure you feel you have enough depending upon what you are doing with it.
