Magnetic Shotgun Keyring | Real Shotgun Shell with Neodymium Fridge Magnet
Two Jobs. One Keyring.
Most keyrings do one thing. This one does two. The magnetic shotgun keyring combines the look and feel of a real shotgun cartridge with a built-in neodymium magnet strong enough to be genuinely useful day to day.
Stick it to any steel surface – the fridge door, a toolbox, the side of a gun cabinet, a van panel, a workshop locker – and your keys are right there, within reach, off the worktop. The magnet holds firmly and when you need your keys it pulls away cleanly. No scratching, no fumbling, no rattling around in a drawer.
The shotgun shell body is the compact stubby format – shorter and chunkier than a standard 12 gauge cartridge, which makes it sit well on a keyring without getting in the way. It’s inert, professionally finished, and built to last through daily use.
What Is a Neodymium Magnet?
Neodymium magnets are rare-earth magnets – significantly stronger than standard ferrite magnets of the same size. The magnet fitted into this keyring and comfortably holds up to 60g, which is more than enough for a standard set of keys on a smooth steel surface. It’s the same type of magnet used in quality tool holders, magnetic knife racks, and precision engineering applications.
On a fridge or gun cabinet door, it holds solidly. That’s the difference between a neodymium magnet and the cheap alternatives you’ll find on most novelty products.
Who Is This For?
This sits at an interesting crossroads between practical everyday carry and a product that resonates specifically with the shooting community. It works well for:
- Clay shooters and wildfowlers who want something from their sport on their keys
- Gamekeepers and farmers who work around metal surfaces all day
- Gun owners who want a magnet near the cabinet for quick key access
- Workshop users, mechanics, and van drivers who need hands-free key storage
- Shotgun enthusiasts looking for something a bit different to the standard keyring
- Gifts for shooters – a practical, affordable option that anyone who shoots will appreciate
It also pairs well alongside the full-sized 12 gauge shotgun keyring or the standard stubby shotgun keyring if you want to build out a set.

FAQ Section
Q: How strong is the magnet? The neodymium magnet holds up to 60g on a smooth steel surface. This is sufficient for holding a standard set of keys to a fridge door, gun cabinet, toolbox, or similar metal surface.
Q: Will it stick to my fridge? Yes, provided your fridge door is steel. Most modern fridge doors are magnetic-compatible, but some stainless steel or aluminium finishes are not. If in doubt, test with any fridge magnet first. It also works well on gun cabinets, toolboxes, filing cabinets, and van bodywork.
Q: Is the shotgun shell real? It is made from a real shotgun shell casing and is completely inert – there are no live components, no powder, no primer. It is 100% safe to handle and carry, and legal to own anywhere in the UK without any licence.
Q: What is the stubby format? The stubby is a shorter, more compact version of the standard 12 gauge cartridge – the same bore diameter but a reduced overall length. It sits more comfortably on a keyring than a full-length shell and is the format used across the magnetic and non-magnetic stubby keyring range.
Q: Will the magnet scratch surfaces? The magnet is set within the base of the shell casing and has a very smooth surface. It should not scratch fridge doors or cabinet surfaces under normal conditions. Always make sure the magnet surface is clean before applying to a more delicate surface like a fridge door.
Q: Is there a non-magnetic version? Yes – the standard Stubby Shotgun Keyring is the same shell without the magnet, and the full-sized 12 Gauge Shotgun Keyring is the standard-length version. Links to both are in the product description.
Q: Does it come in different colours? The magnetic stubby is currently available in the steel/silver finish shown. The full-sized 12 gauge shotgun keyring is available in multiple colours including red, blue, gold, green, orange, purple, clear, and white if you’d prefer a coloured shell. If in need of a specific colour for the magnetic version, please don’t hesitate to get in touch first.
