Description
PPS M870/XM26 Shells (2pcs Pack)
This is a pack of two spare shells for PPS gas shotguns, listed for the PPS M870 and XM26. Retailers describe these PPS shells as plastic gas shells that each hold three BBs and are charged with gas individually, which is what gives the PPS shotguns their realistic shell-loading feel.
PPS is known for its realistic shell-ejecting gas shotguns. Retailers describe the PPS M870 as ejecting a shell after each shot when the action is cycled, so spare shells are one of the first things owners buy, both to keep the shotgun running through a game and to replace any that go missing in the undergrowth.
How the shells work
Each shell is loaded with BBs and charged with gas before it goes into the shotgun. Retailers list each PPS shell as holding three BBs and needing its own gas fill, so every shell is a self-contained round. When you fire and cycle the pump, the empty shell is ejected and the next one is chambered.
Because the shells carry their own gas, you can prepare a batch before the game and keep them in a shell holder or pouch, ready to load. One retailer notes that dropping a loaded shell may knock the BB out, so handle charged shells with care.
Why carry spares
Shell-ejecting shotguns are great fun, but shells end up on the ground, and in long grass or leaf litter they can be hard to find. Carrying spares means you can keep shooting even if some go missing, and a larger supply of pre-loaded shells means fewer pauses to refill.

Compatibility
Listed for the PPS M870 and XM26 gas shotguns. Shotgun shells are generally specific to the brand and system they were designed for, so these are not intended for Tokyo Marui, Golden Eagle or other makers’ shotguns. Check your shotgun’s model before ordering, and use the gas type and loading tool recommended in your shotgun’s manual.
Care and maintenance
Never store shells charged with gas; empty them after the game. Keep them clean and free of grit, and wipe them over after muddy games so dirt does not get into the shotgun’s action.
Put a small drop of silicone oil on the shell’s fill valve from time to time to keep the seal supple, and use only clean, seamless BBs.
Who is it for?
PPS M870 and XM26 owners who want spare shells to keep their shotgun running, replace lost shells or prepare more rounds before a game.
Please note: Shotgun, gas and BBs are not included. Always wear eye protection when using airsoft replicas.
